dallas has a gun for grocery gift card deal going on - hand over your gun and get a gift card.
i see this as just the start...if the economy continues on a decline perhaps they will up the ante to make it look better.
other mayors and cities are looking at doing the same thing - if as people have said, their clergy are in sync with the state governments in this issue - look for more churces to start gently pressuring their flock to conform.
Hmm, a gun for a $50 grocery card. I have a pellet gun I bought for a song a long time ago. It looks just like a real gun. I'm wondering if I can exchange that POS that's only useful for breaking plate glass and nothing else and get a 34 dollar return on my investment?
:D

cnn endclickprintexcludestartclickprintexcludeendclickprintexcludewashington (cnn) -- the obama administration plans to reverse a regulation from late in the bush administration allowing health-care workers to refuse to provide services based on moral objections, an official said friday.. startclickprintexclude===========image=======================/image======================caption==========the rule protects the rights of health care providers who refuse to participate in certain procedures.===========/caption=========.
endclickprintexcludethe provider refusal rule was proposed by the bush white house in august and enacted on january 20, the day president barack obama took office.. it expanded on a 30-year-old law establishing a "conscience clause" for "health-care professionals who don't want to perform abortions.".
You libs are all about "tolerance" and "diversity" and "fairness" so of course, you should be tolerant of another person's belief that destroying somebody's future for viable life is wrong. Lemme flip the coin on the other side. What if a staunch and committed vegan didn't want to give a pill to somebody because the capsule was made out of geletain and he or she would be fired for following their concience? The same said vegan would let another Dr fill the RX but wash their hands of the situation. Well, according to your beliefs, that vegan should be forced to go against their beliefs. Typical lib,you only want tolerance for thee, but not for him her or me.
minimus' thread about research got me to thinking about a friend who recently accused me of researching just to purposely find something wrong so i could justify my actions (of becoming inactive).. how would you answer this?.
My response: So what if I research to criticize. That doesn't make my research less valid.
i couldn't sleep last night.
paranoia, sense of danger, nerves.
wife got pissed, especially when she saw me sitting downstairs last night on the couch with the laptop and a shotgun (surfing the net, emailing and posting on jwd).
By the way, I was being sarcastic when I was saying that you could be in good enough shape to take on an armed assailant. Unless you're in tip top military shape and the shooter is within arm range, you BETTER have a gun on you, even if you've had extensive martial arts training.

"
Security cameras help. They act as a deterrent. If you are going to pick a house, all else being equal, you go after the one without the countermeasures. Of course, thieves aren't the most rational people in the world either.
BTS"
Security cameras however, can be overcome by very low tech solutions. You can wear a stocking cap over your face or you can simply spraypaint the camera lens ifyou're really determined.
"This is not about guns or anything.. but I remember a tidbit of some training I had from a former employer. For ladies, because it was addressed to females. Take your hand and bend it back and shove the bottom of your palm UP into their nostrils. This will sufficiently cause them enough pain to give you a few extra seconds to decide what to do. You can also shove your heels into the top/soft bones of their feet. Take the side of your hand and hit them in mid-air."
Then there's the good old SING defense. Solar plexus, Instep, Nose and Neck, Groin. Strike those often.

My response "Yeah, and so far, I've found that my suspicions were fufilled, would you like to prove them wrong?"

Wow! I must say, look at all the clingy, mentally disturbed women. I know I've picked a lot of losers since I stopped going to the meetings, but damn... Effing scary!

"We have Cameras all around are house. They can't get in the house, with out seeing there Picture.
I don't think they want there picture taken. We have Security sign."
Well then, maybe depending on how heavy that security sign and camera system is, I can get you in good enough shape to where you don't need to use a gun against any assailants. All you have to do is to get into good enough shape to where you fufill the Marine's standards for fitness and you can take some martial arts lessons with me. After about 2-5 years of martial arts training with me, you could confront those thieves again after they rob your entire home clean and face them in a cagefight.
All kidding aside, security cameras do jack diddly, because people usually wear masks when they're breaking into a house. Buy a gun, pepper spray, a bayonet and maybe get some hapkido or jujitsu training if you want to keep your family defended because your camera system is only good for taking videos of your pets.
why don't you see that political parties are pure ideology?
that they are intended to separate us?
republicans vs democrats.
You have a stereotypical view of the GOP and a whitewashed veiw of the DNC. As much as the GOP has disappointed many conservatives and Americans by spending money on pork and buying our votes with pet projeects (Good job, by the way, dumbasses), the DNC by philosophy is set up to take from the hardes producing and give it to the least productive. The least productive are least likely to create goods or services than the most productive. If you forgot what money is, it's not some arbitrary credit that's given out, it's a representation of goods and services. You take goods and services from the highest producers and give it to the lowest producers and they will not produce as much. It's inefficnt. Think about it this way: How many welfare recipients have a busineess?
