Here are some photos taken in 1956 in rural indiana...Local police going to the local school to educate children on firearms...What a novel idea.. I miss America.......... http://time.com/3688072/portraits-of-schoolkids-learning-firearm-safety-in-rural-indiana-1956/

    This right here is our biggest problem with our system of governance...OUR PEOPLE....Some believe the system is simply broken, so they don't try to fix it...Some are lazy, but most simply do not care...Our system of government works perfectly as long as the people participate in the process...The reason things are so screwed up is solely the fault of the people, not the system or the politicians...

    Ok thanks, :) Yeah, having been stripped of being able to carry out his our financial affairs, that would definitely disqualify him from being able to purcahse firearm...Per letter of the law..

  I assume that someone of authority has told him he cannot purchase a firearm, since he has not tried to purchase one and been denied..   Can you elaborate as to who told him this..?

Dolomite, seems like a knowledgeable cat :)   and yes, my avatar is really me, minus the tin foil hat most of the time though :D

Merry Christmas folks..I hope everyone has a good one :)   it just started flurrying up here on the mountain :D

20+ year contact wearer here..I have no problems wearing them, never have...I hate glasses so if i ever get to where contacts bother me, i will go with lasik...

The global warming hit hard up here on the plateau today......28* with ice balls falling all day... :rofl:
