              PEDESTRIAN SERIOUSLY
                   INJURED BY TURNIP

Police are investigating the assault of a man
who was seriously injured after being hit by
a turnip launched by a slingshot Thursday.

The attack  was  apparently  carried out by a
gang whose members have been hurling veg-
gies at random passers-by for several days.

There was an immediate hue-and-cry to control  all  purchase and use of turnips using background checks, fingerprinting, a 24-hour waiting period and mandatory license to carry a concealed turnip.

Cooler heads prevailing, it was determined that Second Amendment rights must  not  be  eroded, so hastily formed congressional commit- tees tabled the issue of turnip control with no further discussion.

You betcha!!

When turnips are outlawed, only outlaws will have turnips!!
