First they came for the guns and I said nothing because oooooo guns are scary and loud. Now only the criminals have guns.

Then they came for the knives and I said nothing because who needs a knife really - can't you just gnaw on meat instead of cut it up neatly? It was good enough for our ancestors. Now only the criminals and licensed butchers have knives...

Who's next?

It's ironic that the left in England used to call Margaret Thatcher a fascist...who's the fascist now?

Submission + - Extragalactic meteor observed over Russia (arxivblog.com) 3

KentuckyFC writes: "On 28 July 2006, Russian astronomers recorded the spectrum of a faint meteor as it burned up in the Earth's atmosphere (abstract on the physics arXiv). It soon became clear that this was no ordinary meteor. It hit the atmosphere at 300 kilometres per second, an order of magnitude faster than other meteors and faster than the Earth's velocity relative to anything else in the Milky Way. For this and other reasons, the astronomers conclude that the meteor must have come from beyond our galaxy."
