Loss of Rights? Not So Fast, Lefties!

Sure, we lefty bloggers complain that we're losing the right to privacy, that voting rights are constantly impeded by underhanded means, that the right to a same-sex marriage is being squelched by bigotry, that freedom of assembly and freedom of the press are under attack, that the right for a woman to choose an abortion is being made impossibly difficult by moralistic simpletons...

there is, though, one right that is being expanded!

Yay!

The right to SHOOT someone if you FEEL threatened. The right to SHOOT FIRST! At last, an issue of freedoms that is finally taken seriously!
