Hey, I'm all for a Federal Hand Control Law. I think the way they do things in Muslim countries would also belie the old saw, "When hands are outlawed, only outlaws will have hands"...'cause they cut 'em off.

Oh yeah? Well, you can have my hands when you pry them from my cold, dead...uh, hands? (sheepishly backs away)

Except that, in sandier parts of the world, that phrase is more like, "You can have my hands when you hack them from my warm, blood-gushing wrists".
