Imagine the Outrage

Let's assume, for the purpose of this post, that our benevolent legislature here in Massachusetts have passed legislation declaring that "undocumented workers" in the Commonwealth (aka: illegal aliens) are entitled to a state-issued driver's license, so that they can exercise their "right" to drive to "work" - regardless of their illegal residency status, or lack of authentic documentation regarding their true identity or criminal history - and that they've overridden Governor Romney's veto of said legislation. You know, "for the children", and all.

Now, imagine, if you will, the outrage we would witness in Massachusetts if an illegal alien were to apply for a driver's license and was made to wait more than 75 days to be issued said license, all the while being told by officials at the Department of Motor Vehicles that they're "still looking for it" and that they will "call him back if and when they find it".

Why, Teddy "Gasbag" Kennedy himself would undoubtedly be chosen as the keynote speaker at the ACLU-sponsored rally on the State House steps, DEMANDING that the constitutional rights of ALL the "residents" of Massachusetts be fully restored forthwith.

I'm just talking hypothetically, of course. ;)

Now, imagine the outrage one would hear from these same champions of human rights if an honest, hard-working, law-abiding, American citizen, living in Massachusetts, were to apply for a license to own a firearm, and was made to wait more than 75 days to be issued said license, all the while being told by the licensing authority that they're "still looking for it" and they will "call him back if and when they find it".

mAss Backwards EXCLUSIVE! Listen to the outrage here.

And, yes, you can guess where this is going. Another round of LeFtY LoGiC. Batter up!

A. Giving driver's licenses to illegal aliens is a good thing, because it will turn them into law-abiding individuals, making our communities safer "for the children".

B. Giving firearms licenses to law-abiding American citizens is a horrible idea and a tragedy just waiting to happen, because it will transform them into violent criminals, making our communities less safe "for the children".


I swear, you can't make this shit up, people.
