"Bad Boys" don't get Business

America and the oil slick
And to Americans this is what happens when you ARE the New Roman Empire.

Think of it this way....you go down to a party armed to the teeth and using as your excuse, a drive by shooting arranged by one of your friends, you take out your magnum and shoot this poor fellow.  Now this poor fellow's name is Mr. Iraqi.  While Mr. Iraqi lays there on the floor bleeding profusely, you casually swagger up to the prostrate figure and give him three more for good measure, than to top it all off you bend down, search his pockets while he lays there, and take all of his assets.

But you're not done yet, oh no not you - you bad boy.  While the whole room is starring at you in horror you calmly state "any of you don't have a gun I'm coming after you, any of you got assets like this here fellow and don't have a gun I'm really gonna come after you..... what do you think about that?

Low and behold for the next several weeks every one of those folks is sneaking down to the local gun dealer and arming themselves like crazy and no one wants to invite you to their parties any more.  Go figure?
