Sorry Jan dear. Gun Control is about People Control not Guns.
Inanimate objects (any weapon) are merely tools nothing more.

I sure do hope that you are wrong on your estimate there Greg B. I’m pretty sure that Damon is letting her “bloom” at her own speed. (The best way to teach BTW) I used to teach sailing in the Caribbean. USVI & BVI

‘Toly, ‘Toly fictional character she may be but wow . Does that make my infatuation er .. uhm abundant admiration fictional as well?
cap, no your abundant admiration is real but if it’s for anatoly it does call your…uhm orientation into question, not that there’s anything wrong with that (nah that’s a lie, there’s everything wrong with that). jk 😉
Indeed, it is not about guns, it is about control. And I may but hope you’ve put the wrong character to your infatuation.

BTW, if you look just under the strip, there’s the title for the strip and a little calendar page and such. The last line there lists the characters in the strip. If you click on a name, you get strips with that character in it. I’m not sure if that archive is complete.
Hey, Chris, didn’t you use to have a character page for each of the main ones? A little portfolio for each would be really nice – description, some drawings you’ve made, etc. (And it could include the archive of strips.)

In China at the moment, I am having a running discourse with a local on the rights of the individual versus the rights of the collective. He wants a “democracy” where the collective rules. You can just imagine what explaining the pursuit of happyness is like let alone the Life and Liberty.
Unfortunately it’s not polite to hit your host up the side of his head with the clue bat of liberty.

I’m kind of astonished it’s not impolite to discuss politics, period. If you’re willing and able to say, what part of China are you in?
Separately, this reminds me of an anecdote I remember from the early 90s in Russia. The guy (I can’t remember who it was now) arrives in Russia and takes a taxi to his hotel. On the way, the cabby asks him the reason for his trip and he says he’s there to advise on democratic structures of government. The driver happily replies “Oh yes, democracy! It will fix everything! …Just as soon as we get someone at the top strong enough to make it work.” Oof…

They ask me to explain democracy as per America. I tell them about the rights of men and a representational republic. No offense is given or taken.

I do see where this is going. Jan is awakening. The programming is being crushed, and the pain is deep. But she is awakening to the truth.

See also Haiti under the Duvaliers’, Panama under Noriega (“Dignity Battalions”), Nicaragua under the Sandinistas, etc.
Among other things, in Second and Third World countries, those “militias” are where the ruling juntas put the crazies they’re afraid of. The generally drug-“augmented”, unstable types who kill for the sheer hell of it, and whose idea of “socialist Utopia” is everything in flames as a backdrop to looting, raping, and etc.
The Army is better armed, so they know they don’t dare try a coup of their own. They are, however, allowed to terrorize the peasantry at will to amuse themselves.
I suspect that here, the “campus activists” of today are intended to be the “militias” of tomorrow.
Because the “enlightened elite'” would far rather let them have a “Mad Minute” every hour, on the hour, on every street in the country rather than face them themselves, when said “activists” decide that “Heaven on Earth” just isn’t crazy enough to sate their lust for random violence and destruction.
It’s the difference between Hugo Drax in Moonraker and “John Doe” in Se7en. Both want to destroy everything, but while the one wants to create his own primitivist dream world on the ruins, the other only wants the ruins.

Jan will never get it until, heaven forbid, she is staring into the muzzle of a gun held by someone intent on killing.
