A Couple o' News Bits

A Brevard County Commissioner got some folks' knickers in a knot when he suggested "get a gun". But that's not the best part:

County Commissioner Ron Pritchard told a resident to "get a gun" to deal with trespassers on his property.

Environmental groups had just shown video of trees, which were illegally chopped down, and commissioners were questioning whether they had trespassed to get the video.
Next, we have the reason I might take up golf:

Krakow Valley in Poland has a gun range just steps from the 18th green.

Shank your pitch on the 12th? Lip out your par on the 14th? Sick of playing a "mental game" for four hours? That's nothing a few handguns can't solve. The range has an assortment of rifles and handguns. You rent the guns, buy the bullets and shoot away. It's cheap, and there's no license necessary.
Now if they would do this here....

(all emphasis mine)
