Concealed weapons

In 1996, North Carolina passed a concealed carry law. Opponents said there would be blood in the streets. IT DID NOT HAPPEN!.

Then NC allowed concealed weapon permit holder to carry in certain parks. Opponents said there would be blood in the streets. IT DID NOT HAPPEN!.

Then NC allowed concealed weapon permit holders to carry on green ways, where alcohol is served, and to store weapons in locked cars on education property. Opponents say there will be blood in the streets. IT DID NOT HAPPEN!

After over twenty years of concealed carry, concealed weapon permit holders are still not committing crimes and opponents are livid.

Guns and gays

Some say that, while most assault rifle owners are law-abiding gun owners, there are a few who use them to harm children. Therefore, if it saves just one child, it is worth it to ban all people from owning assault rifles, even it is prejudicial to law-abiding gun owners.

These same people say that while a few gay men may also be pedophiles, most gay men are law-abiding citizens. Therefore, it is wrong to ban gay men from being boy scout leaders just to protect one child, since it is prejudicial to law-abiding gays.

Where does the buck stop?

In the early days of poker, a marker (e.g., a knife with a buck-horn handle during the American Frontier era) was used to indicate the person whose turn it was to deal. If the player did not wish to deal, he could pass the responsibility by passing the "buck", as the marker came to be called, to the next player. 

President Truman had a sign on his desk that read "The buck stops here". The phrase referred to the fact that, as President, he was the one to make the final decisions and thus has to accept the ultimate responsibility for those decisions.

Now, all politicians have a sign on their desks that reads "The buck stops over there."

Animal Farm

Liberals say don't judge or hate gays, lesbian, women who abort their babies, illegal aliens, blacks, Muslims, people on permanent welfare, people on unemployment for years and years, etc. Yet, they judge and use hateful speech everyday against republicans, conservatives, responsible gun owners, devout Christians, successful business owners, women who think babies should not be killed, people who live within their means, etc. Apparently, the only ones who may judge and hate are liberals

As the pigs decreed in George Orwell's Animal Farm, "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

Save our children

To save our children, we should ban guns! 

While we are at it, to save more children, let's ban alcohol for those under the age of 18. Let's ban mind altering drugs drugs. Let's ban speeding. Let's ban drunk driving. Let's ban child abuse. No! Wait! We are already doing that. And look at how well that's working.
