My uncle wanted to be buried and my aunt wanted him cremated. She came up with a compromise. She buried him in a volcano.
Why does the religious right believe that God made all things--except make people gay.
Every time a child is killed from being shot by a gun. An NRA lobbyist should have to recite the second amendment to the victim's family.
That last one should be done
ReplyDeleteI agree obviously, although I wish it never had to be done.
Deleteagain, that second one...i like the barb...
ReplyDeletesnap, that last one as well...so when are you running for president?
I'm way too honest, not manipulative enough and I don't care for big business. Not great qualities for a politician.
DeleteI don't agree with the last one.... I want my gun. If you take our guns away, then only the killers will have them. Do you know how many guns are out there that have no serial numbers on them. PEOPLE KILL NOT GUNS. If they don't use guns, they use automobiles, knives, bombs.... whatever!!
ReplyDeleteI agree to disagree. But I don't totally disagree. My friend who is a former FBI agent and who set up the anti terrorists unit with the CIA, doesn't even carry a gun. He says more people are killed in home where guns were supposed to be for protection. I'm not for taking away guns. Not at all. I'm for back ground checks, possibly of everyone in the household where a gun is and limited magazines and assault rifles. My neighbor Pete has a gun,a couple actually, and his are so safe. One will only fire with his finger print and the same for the box he keeps his other gun stored in. I also think hunters should have guns. It's a tough question with no easy solution but a solution that is worth looking for and only dialogues between people with different opinions who have honest beliefs can make that happen. So I do appreciate your opinion and your right to state it. That is the American way.
DeleteOooh the gun issue is a hot button topic John. Did you see the bit that John Oliver did on The Daily Show about how Australia got rid of their guns. It was brilliantly funny. I think when people visit your page they need to remember that they are dealing with a professional comedian and not get their knickers in a bunch.
ReplyDeleteLOL... Anne my nickers aren't in a bunch. I just wanted to get my point across too.
DeleteHey, having different opinions is healthy. I also thinK they guys on the Daily show are hysterical. Humor is a way of releasing pain. So that's why good satire works so well. Let's all keep getting our point across. Just don't shoot me for it. Okay I'm kidding.
DeleteThe gun one can sure get people panties in a twist haha not against them, but having automatic weapons is just stupid.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with the auto weapons either. But really, what is wrong with hunting guns, sporting guns etc.... it is how the west was won.
DeleteI'm afraid we are what we are and a lot of it was not foreseen by any deity I'm afraid!
ReplyDeleteYou have a point. We can only do our best to make is safer and to make the opportunities to harm ourselves and our children less and yet keep our freedom. It's a fine tough line to walk.
DeleteSharp and pointed today John, specially the last one ~ We Canadians don't have this gun control issue, which I am very thankful ~
ReplyDeleteI love Canada. I spend some time in Edmonton a number of years back and loved it. I have friends in Toronto. I'd love to spend more time up there. You guys are much more civilized that us cowboys down here. I also think corporations have a lot more control here over what our policies are.
DeleteI used to have a customer that was a super-right winger conspiracy theorist. I didn't tell him I was liberal, because he would never shut up if he did. He thinks nobody is really gay, it's all about attention.
ReplyDeleteI've been there with people. I have lots of good friends I won't talk politics at all. I find that most of the are not informed so there's no bother getting into it. The Gay thing is silly. Who cares if someone is gay? People are people. Hitler was straight, did that make him a better person?
