  Oh I see it, all right.  But I also see many, many other ways to kill 
if you really want to; anyone driving a couple of tons of automobile only 
needs a split second to run over a hated enemy in a crosswalk, to name 
just one method.

  And the Liberal caucus, in case you hadn't heard, wants to *ban*
