Shooting. And Shooting Blanks.

Because this is the foremost site for vasectomy news, you ought to know that in part of India, the ol’ snip-snip will get you a gun permit. There is apparently an underlying logic there: the macho culture is rampant and vasectomies are rare because it’s seen as not so manly.

Apparently, this is a good deal ’round those parts:

The results are impressive: 139 men have undergone vasectomies in the district since the incentive of a firearms permit was introduced a month ago, compared with only eight in 2007.

Me? I’d have settled for the pizza.

    Perhaps they misunderstand the nature of vasectomies? It’s not the sort of procedure that would make a guy safer with a gun or anything….

    Their ultimate goal is to decrease the population by having the men get vasectomies, with the incentive of allowing those men to own guns, which in return may even further the population decline. So India is giving their men gun permits to go home and shoot blanks, and each other. Brilliant!

    I got my gun smelted last year at 29, after three kids. It was horrible but I got a few days off of work and sympathy from the wife.

    It was real scary starting the engine up after the procedure.
