Guard Dog Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Just complaining about taxpayers money being wasted. And complaining that no one else in the hypothetical state seems to give a crap that it is.

Guard Dog Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Exactly. Purely hypothetical story. Obviously such an irresponsible and needless waste of money would never occur in my state. And if it did I wouldn't say anything about it.

Guard Dog Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Here is a little bit of good news for a change. There have been a lot of stories where the endless nattering of moral busybodies have led to police shutting down children's lemonade stands and other little ventures. Sometimes in a heavy handed way. Well, it almost happened again. Some miserable little snit with nothing better to do called the police on a 13 year old kid in Minneapolis selling hot dogs to raise money for school clothes. Rather than this story playing out like all the others the city of Minneapolis decided to go another way. Kudos to them! https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2018/07/23/teen-selling-hot-dogs-gets-help-minneapolis-officials/817927002/ 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blarghagh Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 Yeah, universal healthcare will never happen in the US unless "big pharma" is reined in with the ridiculous overpricing. It astounds me that the American people squabble over guns when their real rights are being held hostage by corporations.

Malcador Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Does the second amendment cover bullets or is just the firearms? Why has elegance found so little following?

Gfted1 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Dunno. What about laser or railguns? Considering modern "bullets" didn't exist during the writing of the Constitution, I kind of doubt they are included.

Malcador Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Would be funny if they introduced bullet control and tried that angle. Could have an amusing debate on what does 'bear' mean in that context.

Azdeus Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) But what about your inalienable rights?! Edited July 30, 2018 by Azdeus Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Gfted1 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I guess "arms" doesnt cover 100% of all weapons made by mankind.
