    The jokewriter finds greater success using easily identifiable extremes than politically correct scenarios which more fairly represent the players. I mean, why are the liberals always painted as weak? Why are the rednecks always painted as rash? The joke is all about stereotypes - talk about forests and trees!
    Exactly in the 20's the knife wielder would have been Italian or Irish (depending upon who was telling the joke)

    In the 50's or 60's it would have been a black wielding the knife

    In the 80's a hiv positive crackhead.

    Since 2001 it can be nothing but an Islamic Terrorist

    I mean you could have used Timothy Macvey but then the redneck would have shook his hand

    But we never seem to hear about what religion white terrorists are. Wonder why?
    Because these types are far and few between.

    Also I would not have an 8 round magazine for a 1911. Wilson 7 rounders are all I carry.

    Fear God, Love the Queen, Shoot Straight and Keep Clean as the Brits say.
    Reckon iffen he had used a Colt Dragoon he would have only needed a single shot. Them brass manglers will never catch on.

    They ARE few and far between, or the REPORTS are few and far between?

    It wasn't that long ago that my daily life in London would be preoccupied by a regular thought as I travelled through my home city: what's my best route to avoid IRA bombs?

    I don't think they had brown faces, but I must admit to never having met an IRA terrorist.

    The Real IRA have been back in our news in 2008/2009 with renewed activity, shootings and assassinations mostly.

    But I will concede, Islamic terrorism is flavour of the day and that's apposite when considering satire.
