Zimmerman Trial: Verdict Reached!
gun sane replied to TripleDigitRide's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
The preamble to the Constitution says that establishing justice is a hallmark of working towards a more perfect union. This means giving contesting parties their day in an honest and open court with no guarantee of the outcome. Since the administration of justice in America has never been perfect and never will be as long as humans are involved, it's foolhardy to believe that we'll all reach a satisfactory consensus. There will always be one side who feels shortchanged. But it's facts, not feelings, which should decide justice. Let's not let discriminatory politics decide what's prudent. -
Zimmerman Trial: Verdict Reached!

So in spite of no tangible evidence that he committed a crime, we're supposed to keep GZ on trial until he's taken up to Heaven or something? -

Taxpayer money is no object when the Justice Dept. hellhounds smell blood. -
Come to think of it, I've never seen an antique rifle case. :blush:

Standing in a train station and someone asks, "Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga choo choo?" and I can't think of the next line.

Have Your Heard the Not-So Latest?

Maybe it's a bad analogy. We hardly ever get kissed by these politicos after they screw us. -
I'm glad I don't depend upon state legislators as a news source. State Rep. Art Swann finally notified me today that HB 42 died in committee--four months ago. If you remember, that was the one which would take the teeth out of the federal "military-style weapons" and hi-cap mag ban push earlier this year. Here's his email: That's really a passionate letter coming from someone with an "A" grade from the NRA.....just like kissing your sister.

The BBB isn't the fort of reputable contractors either.

Why no Obama budget for four years?
gun sane replied to Randall53's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
This continuing resolution ploy that Prez Zero and Congress uses as substitute for fiscal responsibility is just a way to skirt the painful process of getting a budget plan on paper for all to see and hold them to. Why argue over minutiae when you can just haggle over how many billions of dollars more you want to shake out of the pockets of taxpayers? -
Schools with zero tolerance policies against students who make "hand guns," that is, using their thumb and index finger to imitate a gun, make a likeness of a firearm out of pastry or even wear a 2A t-shirt would have their federal funds withheld, says a GOP bill written by Texan U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/07/10/gop-bill-proposes-defunding-schools-with-rules-against-imaginary-guns/ I wonder if the schools think Stockman's pointing a dangerous middle finger at them.

Texas has this cash cow program, too, along with an annual vehicle safety inspection. At the time I lived there, it soaked everyone for about $35, unless you had a relatively new car. You could practically depend upon getting hit for headlight alignments, gas cap seals or worn wiper blades and tires. You had to get them fixed before the coveted sticker went onto your windshield. I hate to see this coming here.

Okay, now you're talking sense. :pleased:

Aw, I would have told you not to trade........ :doh:

Given that we've been buying Rooskie arms and ammo to help support them for decades, the most cheerful word I can think of is "ironic."

A guy from Lubbock, TX called in to a talk show last week. He said the area has thousands of illegals scraping for every job they can get. Two things about this legislation concern the wetbacks the most: (1) There's an army of Mexicans just south of the Texas border just waiting for this bill to become law. Instead of 300-400 crossing the border per day, they're worried that 3,000-4,000 will make the trip and flood the labor market, forcing their wages to plummet. (2) They don't want legal status. If they get on the federal rolls, they'll have to pay taxes like other working schlubs. It's not the illegals pushing this bill. It's whoever will profit the most.

Heck, I was buying .40 ammo fixin's for a friend who was learning to reload with my equipment. I had to borrow his Baby Eagle for a test gun. I finally couldn't look myself in the mirror anymore and bought a Hi-Point 4095 carbine. ;)

I figure I'd make another try at getting Lamar primaried out. Corker the Coward still has four years to make his nest with the libs before he puts a D after his name and that'll be too late. I've got kinfolk in Texas. If it isn't a part of Mexico by then I might pull a Davy Crockett and go help them defend the family farm.

Señor Lamar voted sÃ. I'm shocked.

Does Anybody Here Speak Lamarese?

Well, sure! Try getting him on the phone. But I'm sure he doesn't hire rogue staff members to write their own opinions. -
No, I don't. The problem is, many have trouble holding one marriage together. How will they handle multiple families? Can the spouse accept sharing their mate with other spouses, even if he/she cannot propagate? Will children be able to withstand the inevitable badgering by others at school? How will inheritances be divvied up? How about pacifying multiple in-laws? Here's my point: For too many today, marriage is more like a living arrangement than a sacred commitment. One wag said, "Marriage is like a long, dull meal with the dessert at the beginning." But whether the union is full of love and successful or a continual nightmare of hate and discontent, it influences far more than just two lives. It's a wise person who checks the depth of the water before diving in head (or even genitals) first.

Senator Alexander voted with President Obama 62% of the time
gun sane replied to JohnC's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Corker skated through the last election and I'm sure the same people who paid his way would like Alexander to stay where he is. It's time for some out-of-the-box thinking. -
Shucks, why should parents look after them well into the young adult stage? Let us taxpayers just fund breeding camps and turn them over to governmental indoctrination specialists right out of the chute? We could sterilize women who are unfit--the June Cleaver types who want to stay at home, be there for her family and trust that God means what He says--and have instead mothers who are baby factories, paying them by the pound, and have Kool-Aid drinking training counselors coddle them from cradle to work factory like progressive humanoid nursery ants. Oh, you're asking if I'm serious.........No.

It's way too late for that. In the beginning, government wasn't in the "who's married and who isn't" business. That's not to say there wasn't homosexuality, bestiality, and other aberrant sexual practices. Yet nature itself taught mankind that sexes were distinct and the only way to propagate the species was the old fashioned way--and it will remain that way if government stays out of the God business and refrains from experimental creation. Mark Twain wrote, "Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to." Thanks to our "evolving" society and Constitution, there's very little of that anymore.
