The lefties really need a decent news outlet so they can stop being so jealous of Fox's success...kinda feel sorry for you guys.

What is taking place with the VA right now is a very good indicator of what will happen with Obamacare.  An ineffective and inefficient government ( with accountability to nobody) trying to run a business that it cant handle.

Enough of that...back on topic!   :D

:)
 
I actually don't think the fed gov should have any business in defining marriage...if anything it should be left to the states.
 
I would have no problem with the states being out of it as well and letting local churches/institutions marry (and be free not to marry) whom they choose.
 
Even though I may not agree with the lifestyle, I would not want to legally restrict anyone from living it.
 
I have family members that are gay and while I don't agree with it (they know it) I still love them the same (they know this also).

So the state can regulate what vehicles are driving on their roads so that they can pay for those roads. Roads are expensive and everyone gets to pay his fair share. It has nothing to do with deterring crime which is your claim for gun registration. 
 
What is expensive of me owning a gun that the government has to pay for? To my knowledge the government gives me nothing to enhance my gun ownership but they do enhance the way I travel in my car but providing roadways. 
 
The gun vs. vehicle argument is a smoke screen. 

And my dad taught me at an early age not to judge a man by the color of his skin, but judge the character of the man. I have always lived by them words.

Exposing the obama administration's lies on Benghazi.  Plus, the slap down of the lap-dog media!  Powerful stuff!!

And only available in the 10 ounce can rather than the big 20 ounce!

I just keep wasp spray by the bed. the chain email i read said it was definitely effective against attackers... ;) but i hear they're banning the spray that travels 20 ft. Too dangerous. Obama is pushing through legislation that will limit us to only purchasing wasp spray that will shoot out ten feet.

If you are basing your statement on Larry Sabato's article, which has been used widely by the MSM, that is not what he said. He said "the higher the education level, the more likely the voter will vote democrat."  Other studies have also shown that "the lower the education level, the more likely the voter will vote democrat." High school dropouts overwhelmingly vote democrat over republican. I have yet to see a study that tried to combine the two spectrums to get an average education level based on political party affiliation.
 
People with higher education levels voting democrat doesn't surprise me one bit. The longer you stay in school, the more you are inundated with liberal professors. 
 
 
I have also read studies that state that voters with higher incomes vote republican over democrat.
 
From this article: http://www.debt.org/faqs/americans-in-debt/economic-demographics-republicans/
 
"Financially, Republicans fare better than either Democrats or Independents, and tend to identify themselves as such. Republican candidates gain a significantly higher percentage of votes from individuals with incomes over $50,000 per year, and the advantage increases along with the income level, to a height of 63 percent of individuals earning $200,000 or more a year supporting Republicans. This level is the direct inverse of individuals earning less than $15,000 a year, who support Democrats at 63 percent and Republicans at only 36 percent."

Being politically correct, Joe did suggest using a double barrel...much less lethal than the dreaded "assault" semi-automatic.   :rolleyes:

I think it's funny that you are praised as a hero for being gay(Michael Sam) and constantly bashed for being a Christian(Tebow).

I agree, it is sad...we are to celebrate that a player with an openly sinful lifestyle is drafted.
 
Wonder why they aren't finding who the most prolific adulterer is and hold them up in such high esteem? 

I agree about the media pushing this..most sportcasters are no different than most other journalists/commentators and are part of the liberal media, for example Keith Olberman and Bob Costas. 
 
ESPN was wrong to show this kiss...kids have no reason to be exposed and it was irresponsible on their part...but no accident.

Statistics can be brutal to a bogus argument.

Sam's sexual orientation is not even in the same class as not being allowed to play because of race. He is not the first gay football player and as far as first openly gay football player, who cares. I don't want to know, the other draft picks didn't announce that they were straight. If he's gay, he's gay, no need to tell the world, quit making such a big deal about your personal life. My beliefs don't agree with it nor do I chastise him for it, I'm just sick of having it shoved in my face everywhere you turn.

Here is some facts for 2012......
 
Number of murder victims in the United States in 2012, by weapon Handguns............6,371
Firearms(types not stated)..........1,749
Knives or cutting instruments.......1,589
Hands, fist or feet...........678
Blunt Objects.................518
Rifles.........................322
Shotguns...................303
Other Guns.............110
Asphyiation.............105
Strangulation...........89
Fire................85
Narcotics.......35
Drowning.............13
Poison...............12
Explosives ........8
other weapons not stated ......778
 
So......Rifles account for 2.53% of the murders.....Get rid of rifles and you decrease murders by 2.53% (that's only if they choose not to murder with something else)
 
BUT....if we ban Knives, cut off everone's hands and feet(678 murders in 2012), blunt objects, other objects used as weapons, we could prevent 3,757 deaths and decrease crime by 29.44%

I can "assault" someone with a pellet rifle...even without pellets!

But would he shut them down in all 57 states?

That is exactly what I am saying...the fed gov has no business in the education business.
 
The ISDs and states can handle the education of their kids just fine without any interference from the fed gov.

I agree with that....one is better than none.
 
Though it is a minority, but I would say that btw 4 and 8 people would carry one on each campus in BMT ISD......and I bet that number would go up for the surrounding school districts.  And I say that because I am very well connected to most schools in the BMT ISD as well as the surrounding schools.
 
I also believe that someone in the front office should carry one. 

Even a couple per campus could greatly reduce the amount of casualties in a mass shooting situation. I agree with you that a minority of teachers would want to. But even one could make a huge difference.

I'm hearing Great things about those young Raiders. Keep up the good work, all the jeers & sneers will be minimal this yr. You guys kept your nose right in there & soon it will pay off. This Panther supporter is watching & rooting for you

Yes sir...the good old days!   :)
