   Wal-Mart’s selection for both guns and CDs flat-out sucks. Besides, when was the last time you saw anyone being dragged in against their will to shop there?

2. Shared a status update on Facebook after adding “Exactly – let’s repeal all of the exemptions in the federal, state and local firearms statutes for law enforcement and other government employees.” –

   If guns are evil, why do we give them to cops and soldiers???

Notes from Life, Etc.

1. So what happened? The Mayan Calendar ended its cycle, and what? The world wasn’t ripped apart by the alignment with the sun and the black hole in the galactic core, nor did the earth flip over on its side, the planet’s crust didn’t spin about the mantle, etc. . . . nothing like any of that. Just the same crappy sporting events and sit-coms. And picking up dogshit in the backyard. Rather disappointing, considering the three years of hype beforehand.

   I keep asking and no one answers:

   Why don’t shooting sprees like the Aurora movie theater and Sandy Hook Elementary happen at private schools?

   Why don’t these shooting sprees happen with homeschooling families? There are plenty of homeschoolers who are also exercising their right to own and carry weapons.

   Why don’t these shooting sprees happen at gun shows, gun stores, and shooting ranges? By the gun-banner excuse for “logic,” those are the places that these incidents should happen at the most – lost of guns present, along with lots of ammo.

   “So, where were the “progressives” when a bunch of kids were incinerated, gassed, shot up and shredded by a shaped charge by the Fundamentalist Baby Incinerators, and possibly CAG, back in that Spring of ’93?”

   Sitting in Congress making excuses for it, whining “What’s the big deal?” And the “conservative” Republicans simply let the “progressive” Democrats get away with it. So much for Republicans being better than Democrats.

   I wrote a letter to the Journal with those questions in it, as well. Linthicum couldn’t be bothered to answer them, either privately or in the paper.
