Some have complained that we are calling the Nashville shooter abnormal. Question: Who in their right mind would call a killer of 6 people normal, regardless of weaponry.
Indeed, they want us to call the woman normal. Here’s the news. With me, that’s not going to happen. Abnormal, for me, will always be absolutely abnormal.
Calling abnormal normal isn’t just nuts. It’s crazy nuts.
Even if nothing more than slings, bad people will will always have weapons and they will always do bad things. It is why I keep saying that we need to keep them locked up, that is to say the criminals, not the weapons.
Lest you get the wrong idea, slings can be very dangerous. Moreover, slings don’t have serial numbers. They lack lans & grooves, which might be used to ID the slinger. Be that as it may, criminals can steal, smuggle or even build weapons including guns. Strange as it may seem, some criminal types are also geniuses.
Maybe the ammo would be a little more difficult but men have been making guns and ammo for 6 or 7 hundred years. It’s not that hard, especially with a good machine shop. How many chemists know the secrets of good gun powder and are ready and willing to make it for the right price.
So. You take the guns away from good law abiding citizens. The military will have guns. The police will have guns. The criminals will have guns. The rest of us, I guess will have to live behind bars to stay safe.
Sort-of reverses things doesn’t it? While we hide in our private fortresses, the criminals rome free. Could it be that it’s what the dems want?
Speaking of criminals. You notice Fauci has a book deal. Seems to me there is a law against criminals profiting from their criminal efforts. Just goes to show, laws that aren’t enforced are pointless. It’s sort of like trying to take the guns from criminals. Just not going to happen.
The winners of the gun laws will be the criminals.
Incidentally, did you hear the latest from the World Health Organization? Seems they finally figured it out. They no longer recommend shots for healthy youth. Wonder just who told the WHO.
The program went off and the 10 o’clock news came on. The first report was about two people being shot. I slapped the arm of my chair and explained, “Every day!”
I guess the city of Memphis does have days where people aren’t shot but it seems they are rare. I might be wrong but it doesn’t seem it was that way a few decades ago. Then again, maybe I just wasn’t aware of it.
I really don’t know. That just might be normal for a city the size of Memphis. Regardless, I believe it to be far too frequent.
So, what do I suggest?
1 year practicing the above, and there would be a noticeable positive difference. Then again, that’s not what the dems want. They like blaming guns for what people do and the love pointing out the differences between the haves and have nots as a reason to steal. I’m still trying to figure out their logic on the advantages of drug abuse.
The fact is, only the dems benefit from crime. Those two that were shot today didn’t benefit from crime, regardless of party affiliation.
I had reason to visit the Mississippi Department of Safety (drivers licenses and such) at Batesville this morning. I was ill prepared and it could have turned into an all day thing.
Instead, the folks there were very helpful as well as friendly. After a couple of hours I was on my way.
I just figured they deserve a good word or two. The world would be far better if it were full of folks such as these.
Some call it this. Some call it that. I call it open defiance. Men want to call themselves women. Women want to call themselves men. Joe calls a man woman of the year, or whatever it was. Sorta makes the title meaningless, doesn’t it.
The woman that killed those 6 people called herself a man. I call her a murderer. It’s simple. She chose to murder. That makes her a murderer.
Instantly, that is, without hesitation, Joe said it’s time to outlaw assault weapons, though he hasn’t a clue as to what constitutes an assault weapon.
The truth is, we live in a world where people like to say up is down; good is bad; women are men; and guns are responsible for crime.
The real truth is this murder began years and years ago when this woman was never taught the sanctity of human life. I can assure you, right now she knows just how important human life is to God… a little late. More than that, she now knows she was a woman. Moreover, she now knows right from wrong. It is a real shame someone couldn’t take her aside and convince her of the real truth years ago.
So in an open act of defiance, she killed 6 people, 3 of which were children. She is responsible for their deaths. The guns cannot claim the responsibility. Those that made the guns cannot in any way claim the responsibility. That woman pointed those weapons and she alone pulled the trigger.
It was an open act of defiance.
Think, think, think! Just what kind of a person kills 3 kids. I have but 1 answer. An evil person without conscious.
Saw an ad on TV tonight, another electric vehicle. Looked it up on the internet… nearly $50,000. I’m guessing that after taxes and such, you’ll likely sign a contract for at least 55 grand before you get the keys.
If you have the spare change and you’re interested enough in keeping the planet green, you might not consider it a problem. On the other hand, if you regularly drive over 200 miles a day, you might want to reconsider.
So, I guess keeping the earth nice and green might still be a little expensive, especially for those of us living on Social Security. Considering my current income, it just might take me…. Never mind. I’ll let you do the math. Enough to say I won’t live nearly that long, unless I stumble onto the fountain of youth.
When I approached 65, I realized it was time to check into Medicare. I admit I knew very little. However, by the time I was eligible for Medicare I was well versed in it. Now, it seems every few days some young man or woman calls under the pretense of telling me all about these wonderful benefits I’m can receive.
Sorry. Not going to happen. In the first place, they are implying that this 73-year-old can’t figure it out all by myself. For those young’ns that don’t know what that means, I don’t need their help.
And, by the way, I don’t like them calling right in the middle of my nap time!
A fool refuses to learn from his mistakes.
The intelligent learn from their own mistakes.
The wise learn from the mistakes of others, before suffering from their own mistakes.
If not for the biting cold and deep snow, the Michigan government has given yet another reason to leave the state. It seems they saw fit to repeal the right to work law.
For those who don’t know, this just gave the unions a lot more power and it forces Republicans to give to the Democrat party and dem candidates. Now, is that right? Of course not. Does that bother the dems? Of course not.
My suspicion is that the dems are cheering. They just managed to again twist the election process.
By the way, they also took a little freedom from the little guy. Then again, that is the specialty of dems, taking freedoms… bit by bit, little by little.
Tell me. Is it better to lose your freedom bit by bit or all at once. Seems to me, in the end, there is no difference.
You might want to reconsider having that central unit serviced for 1 to 3 thousand dollars. It seems every year it’s time to break out the old checkbook. On the other hand, you might not have enough cash to cool your primisis. You might have to pull out the credit card.
I have two window units that keep my 900 sq ft home cool withplenty to spare. 1 is 1000 btu and the other is 12000 btu. The little one I’ve had for over a decade. The big one is 3 years old. I’d guess I won’t put out one dime to have them serviced. If one or the other, or both fail me, it won’t cost me more than 800.
They are a little noisy. They don’t distribute the cool as much. But I can put up with a lot for 1 to 3 thousand a year. Then, of course, you likely have a larger income. You just might not mind the yearly cost.
The way I see it, they do it on purpose. They build the central units difficult and expensive to service. Most likely, they will continue to until enough people like me go to window units. Then, just maybe they will figure out how to avoid the big yearly charges.
To me, it’s time we tell those AC folks that we are tired of repaying for our ACs every few years.
