Posted on 01/04/13 at 09:13 am in response to Regulating guns like cars: Perspective on the gun debate after Sandy Hook

Yes; you ARE the militia. Definitions:

1. a body of citizens enrolled for military service, and called out periodically for drill but serving full time only in emergencies.
2. a body of citizen soldiers as distinguished from professional soldiers.
3. all able-bodied males considered by law eligible for military service.
4. a body of citizens organized in a paramilitary group and typically regarding themselves as defenders of individual rights against the presumed...

This incident happened in December which; like so many of them that go on and are never ever covered by the liberal main stream press, demonstrates how "equalization" is the key to all of this mess.

Posted on 12/03/12 at 11:44 am in response to Troubling questions about Obama’s drone warfare

We have not even yet touched on the reasons of needing these drones on US soil. What do they expect to do with them and discover by using the drones in US cities and municipalities. Who and what are they looking for??

Oh; and make no mistake about it, There are "armed" drones being used; with operators behind them at all times ready to hit a button and fire..

Posted on 12/03/12 at 11:55 am in response to Lockouts highlight a need for change in the orchestra business

One thing that was stressed to me back in the early days of my "musician" career was this;

"Don't quit your day job!"

It wasn't a slam or telling you that you were not good. It stands to reason the music business is fickle but we have many people who do not have a lot of "penache'" to hold some form of traditional employment. And; so they try and rely on music exclusively.

I have been blessed to work with many professional and amateur musicians and entertainers over the...

Music isn't seen as a "Tangible asset" in someone's education. Why? who knows. Facts are facts and it's well established that kids with a musical understanding begin to excel in math among other things.

Posted on 10/10/12 at 04:30 pm in response to Advocates for poor register homeless voters, worry about ID amendment

This is a simple point. If you wish to vote, you MUST provide ID. If you are homeless, you still need to have an ID and many ID cards only have a PO box on them with no physical address. I've seen them.
Please stop thinking that the citizens in this state are stupid.
You must present ID for almost everything else. Voting will not be any different.

If it looks like a duck; waddles like a duck.... you get the idea.

Posted on 04/05/12 at 02:37 pm in response to White House seeks to head off showdown with judges over health-care comments

Open foot--insert foot. Obama really did it to himself this time. And in front of EVERYBODY. As a result, they stand to nullify a lot of caseload that had already been handled by the circuit levels, some of which might be catastrophic. Hard to tell because there are so many going on.
This business of trying to be the "All Supreme Leader" has got to come to a stop, or put your foot down and declare the nation a dictatorship so we can get to startin' the civil war part deux.

Posted on 03/28/12 at 10:35 am in response to Presidential run over, Bachmann returns as Tea Party darling

I would not mind seeing her as a running mate with someone. I particularly like Mr West from FL. They would be formidable. We need to shut down this socialist liberal mentality that is the democrats lately.
And yeah; I'm making a very broad associative statement there because nobody can show me a democrat that thinks differently. They wouldn't be democrat at that point if they did.
