As some of you know, I'm a writer. Most of my stuff is 2nd Amendment friendly if not flat out endorsing of it.
So...here's a quick excerpt from "HERO," a collaboration between me and fellow civil rights crank John Ringo:
The Tular Posleen were a settled, trustworthy race who only rarely ate sentient creatures, and even then only other Posleen, and kept to their own planets. The ferals left behind on a hundred planets were simply ravening beasts to be exterminated. And anyone on such a planet who didn't carry a weapon stayed close to those who did.
That had been part of what pushed Islendia, her thirty odd Republic planets and similar number of colonies over the edge to rebellion. Earth had wanted to resume the strict weapon controls and environmental standards it had been working on before the Posleen invasion. At which the blighted and struggling worlds of the Fringe had screamed bloody murder. Not drain a swamp because it might "damage the natural balance," when such balance was already screwed by the presence of Posleen in the bog? Not bloody likely. And suggesting one seek permission for an AI guided autocannon with antimatter shells to deal with said Posleen, just because some Earth bureaucrat thought they were "inappropriate" for civilians wasn't a concept to win the hearts and minds of the Fringers.
We're hoping Sarah Grabby or her ilk will wet their panties screaming, then give us lots of negative reviews on Amazon. Because vitriol from people like that is one of the best ways to make the NYT bestseller list.
:neener: :D :evil:
Look for it in June 2004 at your favorite bookstore. Make us rich, P!$$ off an anti. BWUAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha!
