Today -100: August 20, 1925: A man usually carries a gun for a purpose


NY Gov. Al Smith says people shouldn’t carry guns: “I have walked in the lower sections of New York for years and have never felt the need of a weapon. A man usually carries a gun for a purpose.”

One Walter White suggests, in a letter to the NYT, that NYC reduce traffic fatalities by adopting a system he saw in practice in Mobile, Alabama in which pedestrians as well as vehicles are required to obey traffic lights. Mr. White don’t know New Yorkers very well, do he?

The leopard Zizi who escaped into the Bois de Boulogne and wandered the park for 3 days, gets into the courtyard of a nearby school and is shot dead. Fuck.
