Coulter's plea for common sense

I think that even Nadir will agree here with Ann Coulter, whose brain he abhors, but whose countenance and figure he relishes (I think he's got it backwards). She points out that when somebody gets shot with a gun during a "domestic situation", the lefties point out the dangers of home gun ownership, and advocate that people forbid guns from their homes. But when single girls go out, get drunk, then leave by themselves with strangers and end up getting drunk, killed (or otherwise missing), NOBODY uses the incident in public to emphasize the danger of this activity.

She uses even the Duke Rape/Hoax case, taking no sides: either a rape occured, or a false rape accusation occured. In either case, the offended parties placed themselves in a very risky situation. Want to avoid false rape charges, guys? Don't hire strippers to come to your home. Don't want to get raped, girls? Don't go to strange men's homes and trade cash for stripping.

Coulter points out that just people have a "right" to own a gun, exercizing that right comes with risks. Men have a "right" to hire strippers, and women have "rights" to drink heavily in public and leave alone with strange men, and to strip at the homes for strange men. I had a "right" to leave my kid's guitar on the backseat when I parked my car in downtown a few years ago; I will not excersize that right again!

Y'know, Coulter's a Grateful Dead fan. Though Nadir's music is much different, I reckon that band plays high-quality music, and thus Coulter might develop an adoration for Nadir...
