I upgraded a few weeks ago to Life-Benefactor Level. NRA is not a perfect organization, but I choose to support it. I understand why others prefer to not support it, and respect their stance. ------------------------------------------------------ Though we choose between reality and madness It's either sadness or euphoria | |||

Mike Rowe hits it out of the park again. I was going to post what Maxine "If I was any dumber you'd have to water me twice a week" Waters just said on social media, but that vile harridan does not deserve to have her idiotic propaganda repeated. --------------------------------------- It's like my brain's a tree and you're those little cookie elves. | |||

And I've got some work to do at home. My daughter came home today and asked if she could be part of the school walkout on March 14th to demand stricter gun control. I had a one word answer. No. I tried to engage her on the subject. It was mostly touchy feely stuff, "No one needs a 30 round magazine." "No one needs a military style rifle." She didn't have an answer when I asked her if she was talking about the AR-15's and M-1A's that I own that she's had practice with. My daughter can deflate your daughter's soccer ball. | |||

We all know rights are not about needs. Engage her on it. She may not get it know as an unformed, half-grown person reacting more to emotion than to thought. But give her the tools she needs to have a more thought-out position later, when she is an adult. Don't abandon her to the lefties. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

No one needs a bow and arrow either. It's easy to give away other people's stuff. Our rights don't exist because other people figure that we need them. | |||

That’s what happens in the public school system, they inculcate the younguns with socialist doctrines—get ‘em indoctrinated while they’re young and you’ll own for their lifetime. --------------------- DJT-45/47 MAGA !!!!!

It is good that she is a sensitive soul and has empathy for others. Now she needs to learn to apply logic and consider that while empathy is a good thing, rushing to “do something” out of emotion rarely achieves a desired result. Ask her to consider if her best performance comes when she is emotional or when she is just zoning out and shooting her arrows. Ask her to consider how much damage someone with her skill level could do with a bow. Does this mean we should outlaw bows? Any argument against the need for a gun would only be stronger when used against a bow. Nobody needs them. Thank goodness we live in a free county where need has nothing to do with it. Have her watch the Kentucky governor clip that Jerry posted. Have her read the post about “join me in banning smartphones.” It isn’t the tool, it is the person using the tool. Until we stop blaming inanimate objects and start holding people responsible for their actions, things will only get worse. Psychotropic drugs, violent TV, music, and video games are all more responsible than guns are, but the biggest problem is cultural decay and lack of responsibility. | |||

I believe in the principle of Due Process |
It looked to me like the gun grabbers struck pretty fast, and got a number of kids cleaned up, memorized their talking points and booked on the cable news feeds right away. You might have seen this generations John Kerry here. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Fox Business tonight showed it's not the gun grabbers as much as it is Russian false flag posts on FB, Twitter and YouTube designed to exploit the divisions within the country. _______________________________________ NRA Life Member Member Isaac Walton League I wouldn't let anyone do to me what I've done to myself | |||

Expecially those military assault-style bows with pulleys, balance rods, and fancy paint schemes. Those are meant to scare people into a corner and kill them rapidly with quick reload times and high accuracy from those bump-stock like drawstring release mechanisms. No one needs quivers with more than two arrows. No one needs metal or carbon fiber shaft arrows with pointed tips. Those are for killing. Children under 20 should not be handling these machines of murder nor be practicing with them for sport. That hobby kills. They don't think it be like it is, but it do. | |||

NBC News was all over this and not letting it go. They even showed a video of a new movement called #oneless where 'responsible gun owners' are so afraid of their AR-15's and them falling into the wrong hands and murdering hundreds that they are cutting them in half and posting videos. I'd like to know what or who is behind this. I can't think of ANYONE who would take a $6-800 investment and destroy it because they are afraid someone will take it and commit mass murder. What is this fakery that they are ramming down America's throat now. If found it equally odd that they followed that story with one about the Russians posting fake videos after the shooting trying to hype people up and divide the country. Media... please. #hypocrisy Pronoun: His Royal Highness and benevolent Majesty of all he surveys 343 - Never Forget Its better to be Pavlov's dog than Schrodinger's cat There are three types of mistakes; Those you learn from, those you suffer from, and those you don't survive. | |||

Peace through superior firepower |
People feel the need to express ever greater outrage with each mass shooting. Eventually, they will have nowhere to go, speaking figuratively. They will have to stand in the middle of the road, screaming at the sky and tearing out their hair. They will convulse and drool upon themselves, wild-eyed, waiting for the strait jacket. And none of it will make one bit of difference. Again, even if they did identify the real problem, the problem is so vast and complex and interwoven into modern society that it is unfixable. And you know that these shootings will continue. My advice is to steel yourselves and know when to turn off the news. We are witnessing society as a mob- humanity at its worst. | |||
