Sacrifice
If you are a gun owner, would you be willing to give up your hobby to cut gun violence by 50%? Think of the repercussions if a lot of people did that and gun ownership was outlawed. Over time:

“A Killing Field” – Trump
Trump has inserted the military in both LA and DC. He now plans to deploy them in Chicago because it is a “Killing Field”. I don’t agree with his showmanship, tactics and lies about the severity of the problem. Common sense would say spend the money on the police force and judges. There is a…

Minnesota Nice
Yet another shooting here in the land of Minnesota “nice” – at Catholic Church in Minneapolis. How long will it take for the USA to wake up from their stupor of stupidity and realize there is no way to have free access to guns and ammunition without the on-going escalation of senseless killing and violence.…

No Kings
Restore Checks and Balances! Make Trump Accountable!

Social Security = Ponzi?
Elon Musk asserts that Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme – He’s right but that’s harsh. SS is a tax that is taken from the working and given to the non-working. It should work forever because the population expands with evermore contributors. The government sold the idea of SS as an entitlement where you get…

Artificial Stupidity
“Ours may become the first civilization destroyed, not by the power of our enemies, but by the ignorance of our teachers and the dangerous nonsense they are teaching our children. In an age of artificial intelligence, they are creating artificial stupidity.” -Thomas Sowell By “teachers” I think Sowell has a broader range in mind than…

TRUMP – IMPEACHMENT
When can we start impeachment proceedings? I think the third, NO – the forth time is the charm! End the lies and the brainwashing.

Cutting Gov Jobs
Don’t Forget Gun Related Jobs! Musk’s DOGE is looking for jobs to cut. Here’s an easy one: Have King Trump halt the sale of all guns to the public and make it illegal to possess both guns of any type and ammunition and gunpowder. All must be turned in within 3 months. Gun and gun…

Cuban Electrical Problems = Opportunity
If we were ever thinking of reestablishing relations with Cuba, now would be the time. I think we should help them modernize their power grid. I think we’d make friends and limit the number of Cubans attempting to enter the US. It would be the humanitarian thing to do.

AI for Immigrant Screening
As I understand it, a great part of the problem at the borders is our inability to immediately process immigration seekers on site. So, asylum seekers are released into the US while their cases take years to be processed. It is believed that there are over 11 million illegal aliens in the US now representing…

Are We Responsible Enough to Own a Gun?
I would like to think that 90% of us live up to ideals of human behavior, but I think that it is far fewer. And, if that weren’t bad enough, most any of us could easily have a psychotic break that could lead a person down a rabbit hole of bad behavior that ranges from…

Bushmaster Appeals to Macho Idiots
A greedy gun shop owner sold an assault rifle with massive ammo clips and tons of ammo to an idiot terrorist in Florida for his attack in Orlando. Did it cross the salesman’s mind that the person was a terrorist? How could it not send up a red flag? But greed being the ultimate driver,…
