Lay Lines by Carol Lay for July 17, 2017

Spooky. The future has come true.

Gotta be able to kill those animals.

We’re doomed. Soylent Green, Planet of Apes, 6th Extinction, 12 Monkeys, pandemics, take your pick. Art imitates life.

Funny, yes. Not too factual or logical, though.

And once more, Carol wipes out humanity.

I grew up around gun owners. I used to get the Monday after Thanksgiving off from school every year for Hunting Day. Yet I never heard any of them talk about their right to walk into a store carrying their gun or needing to own a machine gun to hunt. Looks like sensible gun owners should get together and create an organization for common sense education and appreciation of guns, something like the NRA without the big business-political ties.

Don’t give them any ideas!!!!!

I’d usually say that real hunters wouldn’t be baited into utterly disintegrating their targets and destroying a trophy or meat, but right now, I’d almost be tempted to use a howitzer on the deer and raccoons decimating our crops, gardens, and orchards…almost.

Extrapolation ad absurdium. Pro and Con can both take to prove their point, thereby creating commentary – but not agreement.
