Yeah, but I'm still worried about that preacher's set of Hippity-Hop Rabbits.

So let's see now--we have preventative war, preventative detention, and now preventative seizure of magic props. All is well in the post 9/11 world.

Yeah, and when all this time the "Be nice to the terrorists and they'll be nice to you" philosophy was working so well.

Yeah! And I'll bet George Bush personally dispatched the black helicopters filled with CIA ninjas to confiscate that guys "electric touch" in Uganda.

What in the world does 9/11 have to do with some jackboot preacher in Uganda? That's quite a leap.

Sorry if my meaning wasn't clear:

post 9/11 "state of fear"---->prosecution for thought crimes is now deemed acceptable by Americans (even if the thinkers are only Ugandans).

The post-911 State of Fear and Thought Policing is so prevalent that it must be the reason nobody publicly criticizes the president.

Sounds like Benny Hinn. But this goomer with the Electric Touch, now that's MY kind of Pentecostal!

Basic point folks--in a free society we punish people for their deeds not their thoughts. When he uses the Electric Touch as an instrument of fraud, send him away. But not before. Otherwise the ding dong they next confiscate may be yours. Smile

"The Electric Touch device is usually sold in magic shops alongside card tricks, magic coins and disappearing balls."

I'm getting into disappearing ball magic. But my local shop has a very limited selection of disappearing balls.
