1/15/2014 4 Comments Will you be eaten?Today's ChuckleAre you surprised that a majority of voters, especially among the young, opt for a more powerful central government? Is there anyone who would argue with the premise that free individuals can't be successful unless they think for themselves, make decisions for themselves, and take responsibility for themselves? How can they when they are constantly plugged in, tuned in, and being spoon-fed someone else's thoughts? Interestingly, many of the popular concepts being force fed through connections to iPhones and iPads are being generated by environmentalists who advocate that we abandon our automobiles in favor of green modes of transportation. Inasmuch as these are slower, joggers, cyclists, and pedestrians have more time to enjoy their personal media. Unfortunately, they also have less situational awareness and may fall victim to predators that are roaming city streets in alarmingly increasing numbers. Ironically, the same government that subsidizes green industries, also strives relentlessly to disarm us so that we can't defend ourselves from them.
Wait a minute. This was supposed to be funny, wasn't it?

Can you tell me the number of gun control laws that the various governments have passed since President Obama was sworn in, compared to the number of anti-gun control laws passed? Remember that the great liberal Ronald Reagan signed gun control laws when he was governor of your great state.

The actions of government and politicians would be slapstick humor if they weren't so damn serious about running and ruining our lives.

I'm considering a blog posting about the legality of breaking an oath as in politicians who fail "to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution" once they attain elected office. Unfortunately, I can't think of a way to make that funny either.
