They could beat each other with it

I occasionally watch political talk shows on television.  What a racket they make.  I think they should do what the Indians did, or maybe it was the Aborigines.  They passed around a ‘Talking Stick’.  Until you had the stick in your hands, you had to keep your mouth shut.

Six people diving over a table, trying to wrestle the stick away from each other would make great Television.

An even better idea would be to tell them that’s the rule and then hide the stick.
