The game of G--f ought to be eliminated.

I thank my worthy opponent for making my case stronger. It seems we are in agreement on many things about this accursed "game," not the least of which is the danger that it poses to all law-abiding citizens everywhere. My redoubtable opponent not only agreed with my points, but he added two more reasons why he felt g--f ought to vanquished. I will deal with them first, and then touch briefly on my previous points. 1B. Corruption Brian is right. The g--fcourses are hotbeds of incipient political corruption, trysting places for the wolves of our time. They provide a unique haven for the arms dealers and government bosses to go to ground unsuspected, a paradise for the government good ol' boys to grow fatter in while plotting our despoliation. All the more reason to remove these utopias for the morally deficient; and I thank my keen-sighted opponent for pointing out this important point. 2B. Humans like ourselves? "the mega-rich are human beings and they have human rights just like anyone else" my opponent states, in a rare misprint, as it is clear from the rest of his posting that he really meant "the mega-rich are not human beings and they don't have human rights like anyone else." I'm not always a grammar nazi, but I felt this little slip ought to be rectified lest some voter miss the obvious and think he was arguing for the humanity of the über-rich. Of course the hyper-wealthy are not human. No-one in their right mind would believe they were, nor that they have rights of any kind whatever. It goes without saying (though I do say it, in consideration for the weaker-minded among the voters) that g--f should not be preserved out of any misplaced sense of sympathy for these invertebrates. Now, quickly, to clear up a few issues concerning my original points: 1. Public Health My point here on the health dangers of g--f to the average player, the passer-by, and the ordinary citizen was not questioned; indeed, was re-enforced by my opponent. He pointed out the curious fact that the g--f elite suffer few if any injuries from this sadistic "sport", while as I established it poses quite real hazards to those of us not cursed with millions of the spendable. As an underscore to this point, note that many of the feature of the g--fcourses are even named appropriately: water hazards, sand traps, bunkers, and the like. Clearly, these are places to stay away from if one values his life. He also mentions the roadway diverted underneath the fairway; note that the British government pays special homage to the dangers of this pastime by halting an entire highway every time a g--fer takes a shot! Need I say more? 2. Clothing My kindly opponent concedes the eyesoreosity of g--f clothing, but tries to make some excuse for the g--fers criminal lack of taste by comparing them to the typical Londoner and claiming that they will keep their indiscretions on the course. The affliction of g--f is spreading,though; dare we take the awful chance that this may be the generation when the fuchsia shorts and chartreuse shirts invade our streets? I put it to the timid voters: Can you see your grandchildren-to-be hiding in fear from the paisley pants and checkered tanktops; or worse, wearing them? This abomination must be stopped now, before worse things than Chavs come to be. C.
