When Jesse James died, robbery finally was ended in America

Thank God no more robbers ever reared their ugly heads after he was killed. April 3, 1882...What a great day for America!

2. Zeppelins are unstable and dangerous!

Likely they exploded just like the Hindenburg!

3. True! And I'll bet TSA will back us up on that!

FAA, too. And Homeland Security. And OSHA. And Sheriff Taylor and Deputy Fife. ;)

4. Yep, it's all been great since then!

5. Hahaha!

And we've certainly seen the end of torture and cruelty towards women after Elizabeth Bathory (the Blood Countess) was imprisoned in a tower and died on either August 12, or August 14, 1614

8. What a relief that was...kinda like trickle-down economics

That worked out really well too.

7. We've had lots of victories like that

Our cocaine problem went away once in the 80's when we shut down the supply lines from the Caribbean, then it went away again when we started Plan Columbia, and now they are thinking about making it go away for a third time with biological warfare. Some are pushing to use an engineered Fusarium variety set loose to get rid of all the coca plants. Problem is those things mutate like crazy and nobody is sure that's where it would stay.

Good thing we've solved all of our problems and don't need to try another approach at it. http://www.briancbennett.com/charts/death/cdc/cocaine-yr.htm
