Apparently talking about target shooting will get you fired, and drawing a comic that just mentions "going postal" will get you visited by the cops.

Fun.

...Yeah. Soon you'll have to present your 'freedom licenses' at borders, or when pulled over by the cops...

But y'know, Canadian weather isn't that bad. So you have a place to go if thins asplode. Or Australia :D

Yeah, Australia sounds nice.

Sadly this kind of thinking is contagious, and I've already seen stories of it popping up in other countries. It's not as common as it is in the USA, but it's still spreading all the same.

Sigh. This country's going down the pot. My webcomic's ALREADY got "terroristic threats" all over the place. This is complete and utter bullshit.

Why don't the cops actually stop crime and not focus on parking tickets and webcomics?

Isn't it nice to know that people are looking out for you? That they are looking for almost any excuse to throw you in jail or otherwise paint you as a thoughtcriminal is beside the point, I'm sure. Big Brother loves us, doesn't he?
