A Response to Tabloid 'Journalism'

When Amanda Palmer performed at Glastonbury a couple of weeks ago, that well known highlight of British journalism, the Daily Mail, published a report that didn't mention her music, and focussed entirely on the fact that at one point during her performance, you could see her boob.

Here's Amanda's response, on stage a couple of nights ago. Tim Minchin would be so proud of her rhymes!

Why People Shouldn't Have Guns

So in Florida, the precedent is now set that it is okay to stalk a young person through the streets with a gun, against the specific instructions of the police. When that young person becomes so scared that they jump you and attempt to knock you unconscious to disarm you, you are at liberty to shoot them through the heart, and of course it was self-defence.

George Zimmerman may not have been guilty of murder, but he was certainly guilty of something. The inability of the law to decide exactly what is a perfect illustration of why civilians shouldn't be wandering the streets with guns.
