Houston’s KTRK: Play Dead During Home Invasion
At 2:13 in the news package above, Houston’s KTRK advises victims of a home invasion to play dead. “If you come face to face with an intruder and you’re not prepared, lie down and do not look at them. Pretend to have a heart attack or breathing problem.” Yeah. No. To be fair, the report also advises Lone Star Staters “to know how, when, and where to use” guns. In the interests of public safety, we suggest you aim the gun at the bad guy, when there’s a bad guy, where the bad guy is, and pull the trigger. Wash, rinse, repeat. That is all. [h/t SS]

Thank You, Veterans
Not many people still think of the guns falling silent on the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month any more. As we all know, The War to End All Wars wasn’t. And while every day should be Veterans’ Day, this is the one that’s been set aside so more of us will say thank you to those who have given of themselves to defend our country and its freedoms. So today, of all days, find a vet and thank him or her. It’s the very least we can do.
