Oh I do hope so!
It seems so fitting somehow....

| I don't agree with pieing people but I'm glad to find people who don't understand why people like Horowitz and Limbaugh and Bush are able to get rich writing their brand of fiction. |

Violence? It was just a pie in the face, you baby!

| Yes, it's not like anything wounded him, but it's not a cream pie that he was warned about either. This is real pie. It might be stretching the word violence, but in my mind it's not a good way to make a point. |

In Europe there was a movement a while ago that pied people of authority. Lots guys in high places got cream pie in their faces (I think this was the same kind that hit Microsoft-dude a few years back)
Even the Swedish King got one. He on the other hand took it with grace...
The "perpetrator" got a bit roughed up by the King's body guards, but once the King got most of the pie off his face, he went over to the roughed up guy to see that he was allright and unharmed.
Attacking the King, even in this fasion is a capital crime possibly punishable by death (automatically transformed to life in prison since Sweden isn't barbaric enough to allow death sentence.)
I don't recall much of what happened to this guy afterward, more than they let him off easy.
If anything, the King's reaction/action made me respect him even more.

Hah, one time they threw a live black chicken at my city's mayor.
Such a waste of good pie. |

While it may seem like the intolerant of free speech thing to do, in our media recently, huge law abiding protests have had almost no media coverage. So pie flinging and burning little carts in the street seem to be the only way to get any notice. That is unless you have a handful of protesters that hang out in front of a hospice. |

Well, the next large protest needs to be prepared to take camp out for two weeks! Yeah, take those 800,000 women that marched a couple years ago in DC, and have them camp on the mall for two weeks.
That might get some media coverage.
Just let me know in advance so I can get a couple of roach-coaches rented and staffed. Could make a killing selling tofu and soy milk to a half million liberal protestors :)

The concept of integrety is as forign to Horowitz as microbiology is to a hagfish. The guy is a living symbol of dishonesty and the only thing I see wrong with smacking him with a pie is that said pie was cream rather than somthing freshly found in the south pasture. Or not-quite-set concrete. As a well-deserved show of disrespect, it is hard to top.
