At least analogies require subtlety

Mobile County District Attorney John Tyson, Jr., who wouldn't mind being the Democratic nominee for Alabama attorney general, promised Monday during a speech in Huntsville to continue fighting "domestic terrorism," which the rest of us know as "crime." Meanwhile, his prospective opponent, AG Troy King, continued volunteering to be tracked by satellite.

Also overheard during Tyson's speech to the Huntsville Education Association was this exchange:

Tyson: Can you imagine a psychotic 10-year-old?
Elementary Teacher: Yes.
