Most Dangerous Weapon in Your Hand…

Posted at 7:01 am under This Gem's 4 U

This page is short, simple, and done in comic book form, so you can share it with even the most “hey you - pay attention”-challenged folks in your life (even though nobody here knows any of those, right?). This cartoon conveys EXACTLY what I’ve been saying for twenty years…but it does the job a gazillion times more effectively than I ever could.

I found it on “News Literacy”. If you FB, consider joining that page. It’s Dean Miller’s group (for anybody who knows the name but can’t place the face, he was our number one journalist for the Post Register until he moved back east).

Link to Dean’s cool new group -

I like the comparison between the two. I hadn’t thought of them in that way.
