Raser’s Edge:  The Observation Deck: You never know when you might need a condom or a gun

The BBC interviewed a group of Texans after the recent Southerland Springs shooting and of course several of those interviewed subscribed to that idiotic notion that good guys with guns can stop bad guys with guns.  The interviewer asked them if they had ever used their guns, which they claimed they always carried, to stop a bad guy with a gun.  Of course, they all replied never. One of these self-styled Wyatt Earps commented, “Well when I was younger I always carried a condom because I never knew when I was going to need it.” That would substantiate the psychological theory that these big, tough, macho guys associate their gun with their penis.
