Supreme Court, The 2nd Amendment And The NRA
I'll quote you to concur I'll quote: “Nothing in the Constitution has given them [the federal judges] a right to decide for the Executive, more than to the Executive to decide for them. . . . The opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves, in their own sphere of action, but for the Legislature and Executive also in their spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic branch. --- “Our Constitution . . . intending to establish three departments, co-ordinate and independent that they might check and balance one another, it has given—according to this opinion to one of them alone the right to prescribe rules for the government of others; and to that one, too, which is unelected by and independent of the nation. . . . The Constitution, on this hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they please.” --- “You seem . . . to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so . . . and their power [is] the more dangerous, as they are in office for life and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots.” --- “One single object… [will merit] the endless gratitude of the society: that of restraining the judges from usurping legislation.” And finally: “…The candid citizen must confess that if the policy of the government, upon vital questions, affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the instant they are made, in ordinary litigation between parties, in personal actions, the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having, to that extent, practically resigned their government into the hands of that eminent tribunal.” The first 4 quotes are from somebody that's one could call a constitutional scholar -no I'm sorry to disappoint his many fans here, it was not Barrack Obama- it was by Thomas Jefferson and he augtta know the original intent and role for the judiciary since he wrote the darn thing. The fact is that the supreme court appointed themselves-how convenient- the final arbitrators of all matters constitutional and have done so since the beginning. Now it seems to me that if that was the original intent for the supreme court, it would have beens so spelled out on the constitution. But it wasn't, therefore that role was never intended to be theirs. But since they took it, in the words of Lincoln --last quote--we ceased to be free and , in my opinion, the 10th amendment was nullified. http://www.robgagnon.net/JeffersonOnJudicialTyranny.htm http://www.clayjenkinson.com/thomas-jefferson-and-the-supreme-court/#

Former Justice Stevens Diagnosed with Severe Dementia
I encourage every single democrat up for reelection in Nov to run on this platform. It would be honest of them to drop the pretense of not wanting to ban all guns.

Citigroup Announces Firearm Policy... For Clients!
I've had an LLBean branded CC for over 20 years. As soon as the next statement comes in and paid, I'll be canceling it. Also had a conversation with a nice lady at Walmart HQ explaining why I'll never set foot in any of their stores ever again. Also deleted my 3 year old reddit account this morning. This shit gotta stop. Quote: SEATTLE (AP) — The Latest on tension between corporate America and the gun lobby (all times local): 9 p.m. Outdoor retailer L.L. Bean will no longer sell rifles to anyone under 21. The company joined retail heavyweights Walmart and Dick's Sporting Goods in changing policies in the wake of the Florida school massacre. L.L. Bean said in a statement late Thursday that it will no longer sell guns or ammunition to anyone under the age of 21. Company spokeswoman Carolyn Beem says L.L. Bean only sells firearms at its flagship store in Maine and only guns specific to hunting and target shooting.

Dick's Just Became Part Of The Story.....
That's not the point. The point is that Dick's, a place that generates some of their revenue from gun/ammo sales, has absolutely no fear of speaking out against the gun community. They have no fear of retribution from us; none whatsoever. By not making them pay a price for their actions, we became paper tigers. It's our own fault, really, even here, on this forum, everytime there was some pushback against Dick's, it was met with "but a deal is deal, and I don't care" So here we are. We need to start "punching twice as hard" to paraphrase a notable constitutional scholar. /rant.

Snow... part Tres?
Crap. The same happened to mine. It spewed a lot of oil. I topped it off and while it moves and the auger engages and turns fine, it chokes on a little snow and dies.

This Can't Be True, Can It?
No. It's not. She doesn't speak for the press. She may not even chose the assignments and stories she covers. I'll cut the young lady some slack until I see the story she writes. She could do what other fine news reporters do; instead of coming here for first hand information, she could just have made up shit. Hopefully she'll come back and stays engaged.
