"It’s Time to Buy a Gun"

"Gun Cartoons and Gun Violence Bibliography"

Alan: Second Amendment lunacy is both cause and effect of America's collapsing capital. You can only tell so many lies before you believe them.  

"There are two ways of lying, as there are two ways of deceiving customers. If the scale registers 15 ounces, you can say: "It's a pound." Your lie will remain relative to an invariable measure of the true. If customers check it, they can see that they are being robbed, and you know by how much you are robbing them: a truth remains as a judge between you. But if the demon induces you to tamper with the scale itself, it is the criterion of the true which is denatured, there is no longer any possible control. And little by little you will forget that you are cheating."  Denis de Rougemont
