by Noah Your Saturday Cartoon (and more!)
Today's cartoon reminds me of an idea I've expressed for years and that is that we should bring back 17th century ducking stools, and stocks and pillory in our town squares. To be clear, I'm not suggesting that being dunked into cold water or being pelted with rotting fruit should be meant just for female offenders. I'm all about equal treatment under the law, but, man, the sight of "ordinary Americans" lining up to throw rotten tomatoes at Marjorie Traitor Greene would warm the heart of not just me but way too many truly patriotic Americans to count. Sure, we have a lot of wasted food in America, but, once it spoils, what better use for it?
Of course, a few days or a couple of weeks of such punishment and humiliation would just be the preliminaries.
Meanwhile, here, out of the goodness of my heart, is a medical suggestion-
to both reflexive hatewatts:
there is no humor in the ongoing cornucopia of self-inflicted tragedies. Laughing at it just shows you don't really care.
your faceplanting on the 'bot' meme shows how limited you two are. and, natch, all 'bots' must be russian. it's one of the fundamental laws of physics.
too bad you two are on send and not ever on receive. you might figure out that the reason I keep offering the same things is because this page refuses to understand... DWT dips in a toe every so often, but always whiplashes back to its partially flawed orthodoxy (nazis - bad, therefore, any blue will do).
I realize that a pleonastic approach is annoying. But when did anyon…
crapper bot, Your poor reading comprehension has failed you again. Let me help. In the headline, it says "for starters." In the piece itself, it is made clear that the punishments being outlined are preliminary- PRELIMINARY. Also, once again, a sense of humor (it's a humorous piece) or at least a sense of snark would help your comprehension but I'll be kind because I realize that some things might get lost in the translation from whatever Eastern European or Eurasian tongue happens to be your native lingo.
might be mildly satisfying. but wouldn't it be MUCH better to elect a government that would actually, you know, protect defend and support the constitution by putting them all in prison (or, better, up against a wall) for treason/insurrection?
