Gun Free Zones

 

“Gun Free Zones?”

Hello. Jim here.

I was just reading some mindless crap and came upon the term “gun free zones.” I’d seen it before, but today I guess I need to comment on it.

First though, I’d like to address how stupid all this stuff is.

People that are stupid enough to fall for idiocy like this are the same ones that are going to be the cowards that run away when a foreign power invades our shores.

Do you know why the mainland of North America has never been invaded by a foreign power? It’s really quite simple. The figure hovers somewhere around 37-47 percent of our population. This includes the lower forty-eight states, Alaska, and Hawaii. In contrast to many other nations, the USA is pretty damn well armed.

Now…there are those that think that armed citizens are NOT necessary to a free state…but they are those that are going to run to my door asking for a firearm when the shit hits the fan. Trust me...I’ve had it happen to me even when there was not a serious emergency…just a drunk dumbass running around the tiny little town that I lived in around 1995 to 2006. Less than one-third of that town’s populace owned guns, and about ten percent of the people had immediate access to them. It turned out that no action was needed from the populace…because the idiot surrendered to the deputy sheriff before any harm was done. When it was all over, I asked people why they had come to me requesting firepower from my gun closet. I reminded them of town meetings when people were wanting to make the town “gun safe” so that kids wouldn’t shoot anyone. I argued that this was the arena of the parent…not the city or state. It was quickly decided that the latter was to be the silent precedent.

Guns are tools…they are not sentient in any way shape or form. It is idiots within our democracy that would proclaim otherwise when they say that “guns kill people” and “get rid of guns and we’ll be safe.”

Nothing…I mean absolutely nothing…is further than the truth.

Have a safe summer. Hold your ground against the morons.

"Is this a Mistake?"

 

“Is this a Mistake?”

Today is called “Good Friday” by many religions. Just to name a few…Baptists, (and all its branches), Catholics (and all its branches), and many others that would exhaust me to write down. It is a day (primarily in Catholicism) that is a remembrance of Jesus (known by many names and titles) being betrayed and handed over to some dudes that really didn’t like him and being taken to several groups of “holy men” that decided that they would take him to someone else. You can read all about this in most any book that has “Holy Bible” on its front cover…or, if you want to give your wrist a break…you can just purchase the New Testament; because most of this story is in that work. You can probably get one for free…but it may be hard to read. Anyhow…you figure that part out. 

Good Friday is supposedly the day that all the pre-curses happen that would eventually lead to the trial and execution of this man who claimed to be the Son of God. There are books, movies, focus groups, and hundreds of other venues that tell us hundreds of people’s sides to this whole thing…but there is no true answer, because there is no one alive who can testify to any document, person, or other fact that backs this whole thing up. There are literally hundreds of thousands of scholars, ministers, laymen, preachers…and yes, the Pope of the Roman Catholic church. This man is supposedly the “Emissary of the Christ” and therefore infallible. Well, crap on the bathroom floor! Why can’t he just take care of all this stuff and set everyone’s mind and heart straight, and we can all go home happy.

The truth of all of this nonsense is that it is all 100% grade AA bullshit. No one is going to fight your devil battles for you, because there is no devil. Yep…he’s made up too. I remember going to a friend’s house for lunch (across the street from our house in El Paso) and his mother telling my friend that he better eat his corn or the devil might do something bad to him. (Take a step up on the angel scale…yeah, Devil was an angel before he pissed the old man off).

So, as you travel down the road of life, just take religion (and all of its bullshit) and toss it into a hole, a fire, a garbage disposal, or whatever means suit you. You’ll be a much happier person when you do what I did a few years ago. Forget religion…it’s all bullshit, and it’s bad for ya.
