I'm going to have to take issue with "elderly". Who are these "elderly" who cannot defend themselves? Granted there are a lot of older folks in nursing homes, but there are just as many, if not more, who do not. Many of these folk...  [Read More]

Of course, if applied to most criminals that use violence, I guess there'd be no point in a parole board hearing for most of these types of perps (ie violent offenders).If we are talking a violent offenders that harmed children then I would tend to a...  [Read More]

http://www.justfacts.com/guncontrol.asp First, let me say I have my license to carry a concealed weapon and I was once a member of the NRA, so take this with a grain of salt. I love the gun lobby’s statistics, they want to compare children’s deat...  [Read More]

Personally I have no problem with the ruling, I also own firearms including handguns so I may be also biased in this case. I’m glad the ruling did not go further in getting rid of the licensing process. I tend to disagree with the courts langua...  [Read More]

It does not matter if it is a ratified treaty or only one agreed to in principle we can pull out of it. Bush has set the bar pretty high in dishonoring our commitments to the world community. We pulled out of the Kyoto Global Warming Treaty, pretty m...  [Read More]

Was President Bush more or less qualified than Obama 8 years ago? Don't worry I will answer that one. Less, a lot less. On what do you base your assessment of Obama's apparent (to you, anyway) qualifications? His being a Democrat? Not being Bush? Bei...  [Read More]
