Gun Control

...we have less to fear from citizens moved by ideals of representative government than we have to fear from high-handed ideologues moved by ideals of what everyone must do, even to save mother earth.

Sig worthy.

The arguements that they place forward, if not contested immediately, lay the ground work for other abuses later.

I agree.

 

[Stoked]

I agree.

We tend to do that on the basics.

He has some great utopian ideas. Quality preeschool for all kids. Sunds great, preschool made a big difference in my kids lives. How much is that going to cost and where are they getting that money from? Same with modernizing our infrastructure. Even when you bring in private business I do not see them meeting the monetary need.

I tell you what, I'd be for that. Not only would it generate revnue it would dramatically cut expenses as well. No more enforcement and incarceration for pot. That money can go to other shortages for those agancies.

Problem is that it isn't likely to happen. So realistically where will that money come from?

It won't come from anywhere as always.
The Fed will just continue to print more fiat currency, until the economy spirals out of control.

Welcome back. I think I am reading a book you wrote. About the fall of America as the economy and currency crash and everything goes to hell.

Didn't you listen to the SOTU? He promised that his proposals would not add one cent to the deficit.

I'm also reading that the city of Denver is looking to opt out of the new state law legalizing pot. While small personal amounts are fine they are starting to see shops opening up that sell nothing but pot and pot related paraphernalia and a dramatic increase in crime surrounding these shops.

Quick question: As technology has advanced in communication, the first amendment has been applied equally across all types of media. Why does the left want to restrict the 2nd amendment to only technology used by the founding fathers?

You left out the part about the crime increase being due to the unwillingness of banks to accept deposits from these shops, so they have a lot of cash on hand. Purely by accident, I'm sure.
