RE: Constitution Bypassed in Illinois. US Citizens Given 60 Days To Turn In Guns Or Face Being Criminals. Mayor Swayed by High School Students.

in #politics7 years ago

"Assault" is an action, not a type of firearm. Every gun is an assault weapon. I keep a .22 in the house for protection (a .22 magnum). Believe me it will stop someone just as effectively as a .45. If you've ever been shot with one you know what I mean. Chicago has the strongest gun laws in the country and the highest per capita murder rate in America. Laws don't stop crime, morals do. What do they think is going to happen, the criminals are going to turn is their guns??? These people are insane (not to mention corrupt). The only reason they want to take guns is because criminals prefer unarmed victims- and that includes political criminals! They're welcome to take mine... as long as they don't mind getting my bullets first!!!

All this chatter with you made me think of the shoebox of hockey cards I have not looked at in years, so I just spent about 30 mins going thru it.

Some stuff you would like in there for sure.

About 1/4 of the collection is Oshawa Generals past and their NHL teams.

Found some Terry O'Reilly cards and a Dave Andreychuk Rookie card and a lot of other cool stuff man.

I've never really looked thru it that much til now.

  • bought it off someone years ago who would not take a donation but needed money for stuff, so that is how I acquired that box of goodies.

Always makes me wonder if he took some of the best stuff out before I drove to get it.

Yep.

I do not keep up to date with all the USSA stuff but this is a pretty recent article, as I knew of one city for sure where you are required to own a gun, unless you are a consc. objector I think -- I did not know there were others.

I remember too that the governor of Vermont introduced legislation for mandatory gun ownership. I don't know if it passed or not!

I honestly thought you were always on the east coast near Boston someplace, so my mind is still blown that you are in Arkansas near your buddy Billy C.

lol

I honestly was against guns in any form, until around 6 yrs ago, when I decided to see WTF all these 2A gun nuts were up to.

.... spent a week doing my own research at nights.

  • Turns out they were right.

No real pun intended there since you know how I feel on the L/R paradigm lies LOL

I left Boston in 78 and only went back once to visit. I've lived all over the country, but I love Arkansas, the people here are the best I've found anywhere... that's why I'm here. It feels like home, where I belong and Billy C. doesn't come around here anymore, he's not very popular!

Thanks for LMK back.

I think some of this you may have mentioned to me in the past. Damage to the melon means I am not as sharp as I used to be man.

Every day is a struggle now.

Well, here's a little humor to lighten things up!

I've never seen that one, thanks man!

Along with this theme....

on top of all the legendary damage reports, broken glass from buildings, trees, pictures, and stories out there now....

The Jays game might even be cancelled, due to all the damage around the Rogers Centre/Skydome now, outside and the retractable roof is leaking - there are buckets on the field catching water inside the stadium, I just heard.

They had their last 2 games in Cleveland cancelled due to weather and bad rain in Ohio.

We've never even come close to a game being cancelled here, w the dome, for such a thing, it has been historically now --- really bad here the last 3 days and like you said, we are used to such things.

I hope they make it up at least I always get Jose Bautista on my fantasy team! Speaking of sports- the B's and Leafs are playing, so no matter who wins, one of my favorite teams loses! I won my fantasy hockey for the 3rd year in a row!
