I'm not pissed off but I am kind of surprised at my reaction.I'm the liberal he talked about having been.I have to admit I hadn't thought about it like that.It's kind of making me question my position in the gun debate. Especially with all the exceptions they're making as to which assault guns are banned and which aren't.I'm wondering how it's any safer when if you can't buy this assault gun,you can turn around and buy that one.Although I'm not reconsidering on universal background checks (even for private sales from neighbor to neighbor).I certainly got food for thought tonight anyway.
Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself. Harvey Fierstein
“Our economy is based on spending billions to persuade people that happiness is buying things, and then insisting that the only way to have a viable economy is to make things for people to buy so they’ll have jobs and get enough money to buy things.” – Philip Elliot Slater
"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the state can shield the people from the political, economic and military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the state to use all of it's powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state." - Joseph Goebbles.

Remember "Little House on the Prairie"? This ain't it. When a California-born, desert-dwelling, Big-City girl finally realizes her dream of having a homestead in the country and moves lock, stock, and barrel to the Appalachian foothills of Kentucky, anything can happen--and usually does! I'm learning as I go. But as Auntie Mame so succinctly put it,"Live, Live, Live! Life is a banquet, and most poor fools are starving to death!" Welcome to my banquet.
