THE STORY OF THE MONTH

"Free to Pee on You and Me" or "The
Road to Lawsuit Nirvana is Paved with Spineless Politicians"
by Mike Magnum
Give The Breakfast Cereal Industry Immunity from
Law Suits!
Call your congressman today and let them know that if Tony the
Tiger wants to take a big steaming dump in your breakfast bowl,
he should be able to do so without fear that some whining idiot
like you will file a lawsuit against him. If Captain Crunch wants
to put heroin and crack in your morning meal, the good Captain
should be able to do so knowing you can't do a damn thing about
it. And if the Mike Magnum Liquor Store and Gun Emporium wants
to sell a breakfast cereal made out of broken beer bottles and
depleted
uranium -- which we're seriously considering -- we should
be able to market and sell "Nuclear
Shards" (tm) directly to infants with the comforting knowledge
that we're free of the law.
I just make the cereal. It's not my fault if you eat it. Sucker.
If the gun industry gets immunization from "pending
and future lawsuits,"
I want immunization for my products, too. It's just that simple
-- the freedom to screw up your life and then give you the
finger.
YES!
This is one massively large "fuck you" bill, which makes
you wonder how much money the gun industry gave to those political
whores in Washington. I'm guessing our -- and I use the term "our" loosely
-- kindly representatives were sucking hard on that campaign cash
dispenser when the NRA and the gun industry dropped their bill-laden
pants.
"The
[gun industry] say they're not responsible for the misuse of
their products."
Hey, I didn't tell the gun industry to make and sell guns. I sell
them, too. I just follow the law and don't sell guns to idiots,
criminals
or
politicians.
If the gun industry is so worried about lawsuits, they should sell
something that isn't disproportionately used to kill people --
like breakfast cereal. The last jerkoff that tried to rob my Liquor
Store and Gun Emporium used an illegal AK-47, not a box of Special
K.
If this bill passes, another jerkoff can buy another AK-47 from
the same person and I can't do much more about it than eat lead. "What
the House of Representatives is saying is that no matter how
reckless the gun industry acts, they will not be held accountable
for their behavior. No other industry would enjoy such blanket
immunity," said U.S. Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.).
Just as soon as those spineless politicos give lawsuit immunization
to the gun industry, I'm going to be calling them for my immunization
bill -- The "Free to Piss in Your Pot of Morning Nutrition"
Bill. It sure will be nice to be able to do what the hell I
want without
fear of
repercussions.
And as soon as that bill
passes, I'm going to start selling "Mike Magnum's Big Box
of Cherry-Flavored Rat Poison Razor Blades."
Just like the gun industry, I'll be selling it to whomever I want. If
you eat it and die, that's your fucking fault.
- Mike
