"'If my right arm offends me, cut it off; if my right leg offends me, cut it off,"' Garrett said, giving his rendition of a Bible passage that might fit the circumstances.

Why didn't he gouge out his eyes? Or start cutting at the neck?

Sick sick sick on many levels.

Well, if tries to plead insanity, he doesn't have a leg to stand on.

What?!! I can steal jokes. It's my conscience!!

I really don't think it was his right leg that was causing the offence. If he truly believed that thing about cutting off offensive members, he wouldn't have needed a saw - a pair of garden shears would have done the trick.
