Al Qaeda calls in to make a terroristic threat to America. The line goes "Click!" and a recording says "American is not accepting these types of calls. Nothing is more terrorising than our current candidates. Please hang up and try again later.

Since its modern mutation in 1968 (via the “Gun Control Act of 1968), and with an infusion of power to it in 1972 by Treasury Department Order No. 120-1, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, and Explosives (BATFE) has amassed a truly sordid record of “gun control.” Although it’s website somewhat outlandishly claims a history going back to 1789, BATFE’s modern roots go to its failed attempts at the enforcement of Prohibition (another stupid idea from the federal government).

MOLLY CORFMAN / Knight Ridder News Service Madeleine Maddox (above) holds a T-shirt that promotes Helping Our Troops, a group founded by her daughter, Kristen. The group sends personalized care packages to U.S. soldiers stationed overseas. She's gotten marriage proposals from admiring visitors to her Web site. Maddox may be 21 and she may be attractive, but she isn't trolling for dates. Her heart belongs to U.S. troops. "I want them to understand that my generation cares," Maddox said. The "Hot" stands for "Helping Our Troops," a...

"When I first saw that, I was taken aback," says Greene, 51, a long time volunteer with her son's former Boy Scout troop in San Leandro. "I remember thinking, 'Why?"' The image on the shirt shows a row of rocks hurtling through the air toward a stick-figure boy's head. Harmless humor or injurious insult?
