From the editorial:

"...simply post signs everywhere saying: "No crime beyond this point" and what a wonderful society we'd all have."


Reminded me of the signs that used to be near the entrances to the Battle Ground, WA, high school:

"Illegal activity prohibited"

This was great! This guy has something a lot of people have lost in our politically correct society. Common sense and a firm grasp on reality.

How about this one... At South Kitsp High School.

I was dropping my kids off and there was a TEACHER standing in the Bus driveway holding a sign that read

BUSSESS ONLY

Brought to us by a School System that can't get it's students to pass the WASL. Wonder if it is the students being dumb or the Teachers being Morons.

The problem is right there:

"...Seattle's Mayor Greg Nickels signed an executive order asking all departments to come up with a plan to ban guns on all property owned by that city...."

Will police have to comply with that too?

He is to ban guns instead of dealing with crime, just like a Mayor of Toronto in Canada.

And, aren't criminal activities banned by law and punishable already?
