I saw an article that said exactly 37 rifles have been turned in. Five of those by Cabinet members of the "government".

so was Lon Horiuchi. At least 10% of any group (trade school grads, military, etc.) are going to be assholes. Said percentage tends to be higher in certain groups (politicians, actors etc.) but I've never seen it to be any lower.

One of my favorite comebacks when some one is using the fact that a person has an MD as proof of their moral superiority. "Oh, just like Josef Mengele."

Damn, you just quotes Mark's First Rule of Social Interaction, to wit "In any given population, the percentage of assholes is non-zero".

Seems the word is getting out!
