Well, Cannon Girl, I do agree that when the newscasters announce that gas prices will be going up, sure enough, next day, the prices are up again.....I swear it happens every time.....(my analogy to "gun control")......
I do want us to learn to do without so many guns. To those friends of mine who think they are protected by a firearm, statistics say, that this weapon will be used against them. It is not sexist for me to say that most men can physically restrain or overpower a woman....
While we may not agree on some things, I just don't want to shop or do business in places where open or concealed carry guns are allowed. Some of these gun fanatics are so paranoid, that they think they have to leave the house every day with a gun....Well, they can just stay home and take their meds. I think I have a right to go out of the house without confronting someone with a gun. I can't tell if someone is the good guy or the bad guy so what is an old bat supposed to do?
When a friend recently went to Mexico, I told her to get some pepper spray. She was driving just to border where her friends would pick her up.
Like that could protect her if some members of the drug cartel confronted her on the highway. lol
Someone has already said it, but the little girls in Texas had their lemon stand closed because they (seriously) needed a license to sell "food" items.
Yet, in the same newspaper, the politicians are gloating over signing new law to enable citizens to carry without background check and permit.
The Governor of Texas, just said that the shooting in S.C. was essentially an "accident" caused by a young man using drugs. Well, he said more than that, but that was bottom line. I want NRA to concentrate more on gun safety rather than trying to arm every one in USA. Do you realize how many complete idiots have guns? Yeah, I know you do.....just venting. My own cousin told me that we need guns everywhere, maybe not in courtrooms she concluded; she said I should remember Germany. I couldn't believe my ears. If I really felt that way, I would probably head for Costa Rica, Panama, and maybe on to Peru....well, here I go again, being verbose....
