  1.   Okay....not another peep about, "Bush lied, people died."
  2. Of course I believe in the power of choice.  I also acknowledge that some can't see beyond their own desire the eventual outcome of their decisions.  Why not let kids have as much candy as they want?  Why tell your teenager you want them home before midnight?  Liberty without restraint guided by wisdom is not victimless.  It affects many more people than you might realize.  So it is with a government which makes or decides laws based not upon the eventual consequences, but upon what will attract more votes.  Because the poor outnumber the rich, it is far more popular to spread the wealth around to achieve "fairness"  rather than reward individual achievement.  How much of your taxes are you willing to give to finance a drug rehab clinic for illegal aliens or an all-inclusive vacation resort for welfare recipients? A growing number of gays and lesbians are coming out of the closet, perhaps closely followed by polygamists, pedophiles and those strongly attracted to sheep.  You may think it's best to live and let live, but will you hold to that philosophy when the barbarians are storming your gates?
  3. What the decision really does is stigmatize people who live their lives according to moral principle.  If you say you are opposed to gay marriage because of your faith or belief,  you now become a self-confessed homophobe.  It wasn't political ideology that was decided today, but the illegitimacy of perceived righteousness.
  4. "When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people's hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong," says the writer of Ecclesiastes.  Under this principle, if a government does what's right in it's own eyes instead of what the law demands, the course is set for a downward spiral into anarchy and chaos.  Politicians have perverted the truth for centuries, but in the last few decades we've witnessed the country radically transformed by ideological deception.  Now it's even affirmed in national polling that many  people have little to no trust in government.  This pending legislation is only throwing more wood on the fire of unruly cultural division.
  5. Given Sen. Lamar Alexanders YES vote to keep shoving this 1,200 page immigration crap sandwich down our throats, I wrote to the senator asking him to make up his mind if he thinks he's representing open-eyed, intelligent Tennesseans or airheaded fools.  Here's his response:     Maybe you got the same form letter.  So does this mean he's for this monstrosity or against it?    
  6. I doubt that this incident will start a revolutionary war, but it does get me wondering just how far an oppressive government will have to go until law-abiding citizens go from disgruntled obedience to civil disobedience and finally to out-and-out rebellion.  The Lexington-Concord battle started because the British were moving to collect a cache of arms and arrest rebel leaders.  This confrontation where the "shot heard 'round the world" was fired began a long fight for American independence.  It's no secret that the liberal political factions, as well as the executive branch of government, would desire to see a gun-free nation and might one day become bold enough to decree and enforce it, just as the British attempted to do.  My question is where is the line between, "That's the law" and "Liberty or death"?
  7. We've all been wondering where and when something like this will happen.  It's in Erie, PA and it's now.   http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/23/gun-rights-rallygoers-defy-local-law-confront-police-state-actions/
  8.   And in this case, the woman was the grass and the cops were the mower.  Look at how often Congress lets the grass grow under their feet.
  9. Not for nuthin', but you'd think the mailman would've smelled something fishy about this.   http://cnsnews.com/news/article/irs-sent-46378040-refunds-23994-unauthorized-aliens-1-atlanta-address
  10. Here's the "constituency" that weasel is fighting for:   http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/06/21/Corker-Amendment-permanantly-gives-citizenship-to-those-overstaying-visas

    Friday funny

    Kids nowadays are a lot quicker than we are. 
  12.   I've been blocked out since shortly after he became a senator, when he voted to approve TurboTax Geithner for treasury secretary.  For some reason he got offended when I said that Rod Blagojevich could do Corker's job just as well.  
  13. Two possibilities: (1) He's an idiot who'll become the poster boy for the left's crusade. (2) He's a planted lefty who'll become the poster boy for the left's crusade.   http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/19/watch-pro-gun-advocate-gets-tasered-by-cops-after-heckling-gun-control-supporter-at-rally/
  14.   You'll get the most pep out of a lever action rifle, but a 6-8" barrel is much better than a snubbie.
  15.   Yep.  None in Laredo or any of the border towns west of Brownsville/McAllen.  SHTF will be the best thing that's happens to them.
  16. Even the cop suggested she take a class.  If she's still clueless after that she should return the Glock and work from home with twenty locks on her door and 9-11 on speed dial.
  17. Started walking 5 miles per day for exercise, but quit after a week because he was 35 miles from home.
  18. The story will probably have a typical liberal happy ending:  gun buyback.
  19. Won't watch Apollo 13 until he's seen the first 12 prequels.
  20. I won't have to wait for the next Stephen King novel after reading this hair-raising episode.   http://msmagazine.com/blog/2013/06/12/my-month-with-a-gun-week-one/
  21. Wears short sleeved shirts as his way of supporting the Second Amendment.
  22.   There's a 60-second cut on the production company's website.  I posted the director's cut.  It may have been an audition for the ad business.  It's certainly creative, nonetheless, but you can be certain it's for a limited market.
  23. The dangest commercial I've ever seen.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myNzwTKCfO8    
  24. My .38 Colt Detective Special likes flat pointed 158 gr. LSWC with Trail Boss and Red Dot.  The Ruger Blackhawk shooting the same bullet in .38 prefers Titegroup and AA2.  I haven't tried 158 RN yet, but I'm sure these powders will suffice.
  25. Changed the undies.
