Let us examine the real issue of pressure cookers and the steps we must immediately take to regulate, control, and yes - confiscate them.

In the WRONG HANDS these things can be EXTREMELY DANGEROUS and we as a society simply cannot afford to have pressure cookers out there being sold in a completely uncontrolled manner.

I am just talking about some common sense laws. In addition, with all the documented instances of pressure cookers being used to construct explosive devices, and in light of the numbers of killed and injured, two things are clear: pressure cookers are lethal and we are in the midst of a pressure cooker violence epidemic.

There is no need for pressure cooker nuts to run around with their pressure cookers without any regulation and oversight. We must act now - even if it saves just one life.

First, most people do not need high capacity pressure cookers. Limiting pressure cookers to a quart capacity will make society safer. High capacity pressure cookers should only be available to professional chefs and those highly trained in their use. And the government.

Mandatory mental health evaluations and federal background checks will help to ensure that a pressure cooker doesn't fall in the wrong hands. Should people convicted of felonies and domestic violence misdemeanors be banned from owning pressure cookers? ABSOLUTELY!

Even if it saves just one life, it's worth it. How about that soccer mom? Well, it depends. What if she loves soccer but hates America? Do you REALLY want THAT soccer mom to have unfettered access to something so potentially deadly? The people cannot be trusted with these devices and we must control their access immediately.

Next - we need to have the Department of Homeland Security buy up 1.6 Billion chickens so that these pressure cooker nuts have no access to the ammunition that is required to weaponize these pressure cookers.

I'm only talking about common sense here people. Let the government cook your food for you - let the professionals handle it.

Together, we can make the changes necessary to foster a pressure-cooker free America.

John Lennon's Pablum

I am a huge fan of the writer Ayn Rand. Many people deride her writings as being
jingoistic and simplfied.

I couldn't agree more.



That's what makes this so powerful - even the progressive fool raised on the pablum of John Lennon and Doctor Spock where nobody loses and everybody wins if we could all just "get along" gets what this all means to them:


"There's  no way to rule innocent men. The only power government has is the power
to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals,  one makes them.
One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live
without breaking laws."                            

"When  you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when
you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men
who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who
deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by
graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against
them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being
rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your
society is doomed."
