Followup clubs

A Followup on Clubs:

Again via FARK, a worthy followup to the post on clubs v. guns. Sometimes, older arms still work just fine:

Iwasaki, a Hillsboro native and decorated veteran, was honored last weekend as part of the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the desegregation of the U.S. armed forces. He served in a segregated unit that became the most decorated Army infantry group in U.S. history.

Iwasaki fought across France and Italy during World War II and was wounded three times. He earned a Purple Heart with two oak leaf clusters and a Bronze Star before returning to Hillsboro in 1946.

Despite Iwasaki's military experience, Washington County deputies are wary about people confronting gun-wielding suspects.

Generally, what matters is the spirit. If the spirit is right, the mind follows: if the mind is right, the body follows.
