The Five Silliest Reactions to the Arizona Shooting

Chris Moody at the Daily Caller collected the five dumbest reactions to the Arizona shooting. These all too typical legislative overreactions deserve to be laughed into submission. I'll give you the highlights and you can read the details at the Caller:

1. Encase the entire House and Senate floor with Plexiglass so the tourists can’t throw things at members of Congress

2. Impose a federal ban on carrying a firearm within 1,000 feet of any “high-profile” public official

3. Make it illegal to draw pictures of elected officials within crosshairs or say things that might be considered ‘threatening’ to lawmakers

4. Use the Federal Communication Commission’s power to finally get that dastardly Rush Limbaugh off the air (or at least get him to stop being so mean)

5. Since the alleged Tucson gunman liked to smoke pot, the federal government should impose tougher drug laws

You can write all the laws you want and you still can't stop crazy. Crazy will do what it wants to do regardless of what some bureaucrat wrote into a bill.
