Roland: Congressman Young, you've said you want a chance at "returning anything that happens to me." Congressman: That's right, Roland. Say I'm giving a speech and some nut in the audience takes a crack at me... the possibility of return fire is the only thing that'll make him think twice! Roland: Have you considered covering fire? Congressman: During a speech? Sure, but it could send the wrong message.
Anything but the wrong message!!!

Joe cowboy would never have done as well.
