Iowa is granting permits to acquire or carry guns in public to people who are legally or completely blind.

No one questions the legality of the permits. State law does not allow sheriffs to deny an Iowan the right to carry a weapon based on physical ability.

The quandary centers squarely on public safety. Advocates for the disabled and Iowa law enforcement officers disagree over whether it’s a good idea for visually disabled Iowans to have weapons.
[...]
“I’m not an expert in vision,” Delaware Sheriff John LeClere said. “At what point do vision problems have a detrimental effect to fire a firearm? If you see nothing but a blurry mass in front of you, then I would say you probably shouldn’t be shooting something.”

My favorite part is that Law Enforcement AND disability advocates are divided on the issue.

Glad to know those are both valid career paths for idiots. We should let alma know they're possible options.

Is this going to end up the same way as the "Get a real job" tip from the 1%er to the waitress?

Brilliant crowd-sourced detective work as usual. Does anyone's signature look anything like their normal handwriting?

Both my signature and my handwriting look like a disaster, does that count?

It's possible, there's plenty of attention whores on the intrawebs, though I can't say I care either way.

It's not just the difference between the signature and the slur, but the two words in addition to the signature don't seem to match each other either. The N's are radically different. E's are different. Angle of writing is different. It almost looks like one person signed it, another person wrote "none", and then a third person wrote "******". Actually, looking at it again, it looks like the person who wrote "none" is right handed (and a poor writer), and the person who wrote "******" is left handed (but with much better penmanship at least). No way to reconcile that with the signature, of course (except it was clearly written by a right hander), but unless the guy signing the receipt handed it around to his friends to write comments on it (not impossible), I'm not sure we can conclude anything from this.

I'm also finding it hard to believe someone would write that on something he'd also signed his name to (and used a credit card to pay). Anyone who's worked in a restaurant can certainly see how the employee copy of a receipt with no tip might get a series of colorful notes added to it though. Hijinks abound, right? Dunno. I kinda see BS on this one as well.
