From THE NEWS-RECORD (Greensboro, North Carolina):





Dammit! Who's been selling tasers to the Mennonites?
It's like supplying rifles to them red injuns!

    For half a second, I actually believed they were buying tasers ---- and then I read the headline.

  6. Thanks, Cathy. It was a complicated one as I had to build the background behind the Quakers to fit in with the Mennonite's background. I had to create about twenty layers to do it.
