Trump & Guns

So yesterday The Donald mentions the fact of one or more openings on the supreme court that will be filled by either him or Clinton. He also goes on to mention in passing that if Hillary gets the chore gun rights may be curtailed.He further comments that if those gun rights are scaled back gun owners might be upset. That's it. From those observations/predictions the weenies in the media and the progressives/democrats deduce an assassination may be in the crystal ball for Hillary.That's a stretch. Limiting gun rights would be an aggressive act that would be met with opposition. Who would doubt that? But an assassination of the president?Lets face it when adults can't talk about serious topics in public we will need gun rights more than ever.Our nations is largely weenies on both sides worrying about victims both artificially produced or born naturally.We weren't born to worry about victims. We are here to survive in a responsible way and live humanely with others.Any other plan is a scheme for crooks and losers to get something for nothing.

Guns or Violent Videos: Which Is The More To Blame?

Newtown, Connecticut and Aurora, Colorado massacres both featured assailants dressed in military garb using automatic weapons that were easily obtained. Easily obtained guns were obviously.a sine qua non component of the tragedies. But why were both killers in military uniforms? That didn't help them kill. Guns by themselves are blameless. Blame is on the user. It's a fact that mass murders can be carried out by other means. E.G. explosives, fires, toxic gasses, mass killings caused by sabotaged vessels etc. The military clothes suggest a role playing. Could the easily available violent video game which features uniformed combatants be the true source of violent behavior in our society? Parents routinely give children hand held devices with brutal videos as a cheap baby sitting surrogate. It turns out this alternative may not be so cheap after all..

Bad News: We Only Have Ourselves To Blame

Sorry to break it to you boys, but the start of "white male suffrage" in the early 19th century brought the consequences of this crazy democracy we all now suffer through. The Federalist Party collapsed in app.1820.The Federalists held that only white male property owners could vote. But with Maryland's liberalizing who could vote in 1810 and other states following, the election of Andrew Jackson over John Quincy Adams was the first "democratic election". Then came woman sufferage and now illegals sneak a vote. 

Of course the seminal moment for ruinous democracy is the disconnect from property ownership and the right to vote. Because it's only a matter of time before the masses out populate and out vote the haves and give it to the have nots. And this includes taking from US citizens and giving to people around the world.

Don't let them vote your gun away. But I think no one trusts the government so when push comes to shove, the haves and the have nots will team up to shoot the politicians. It will be great fun.

What's The Difference Between A Republican And A Democrat?

According to "The Kingfish" Huey Long the 1930s Governor and Senator of Louisiana, "The difference between a republican and a democrat is the democrat will skin you from the ear down while the republican skins you from the ankle up".

And so the difference between former disgraced Republican Speaker of the House Tom DeLay and the current Speaker Nancy Pelosi is negligible. On Pelosi's watch, we have $8 corn and $ 140 oil and a subprime meltdown. Israel continues to build illegal settlements with U.S funding on Palestinian land. Bush is talking to the Iraqis about long term bases. Where is the voice of oppostion or the voice with a plan to mitigate these catastrophes? Anyone hear Speaker Pelosi with a plan?

Maybe she likes it this way. Certainly she's not much better than Tom DeLay. When someone is silent who is in a postion to make a difference then the silence is assumed to mean satisfaction with the status quo. If the democrats add to their majority in the coming elections and also take the presidency they may try for more gun control. After seeing Pelosi and DeLay one should never give up their personal protection against Congress.
