The only useful thing political "officials" can do-- for anything-- is stay out of the way. Yes, they set "economic policies, but they shouldn't-- those policies are harmful to the economy

Oh, and the day an angry husband showed up on the site to confront (and he said he was going to kill) his wife, I was glad I was armed. We locked all the doors, but if he'd set fire to the building or

The last "normal" job I had, the employee handbook forbade weapons. Yet, I think the owner and manager knew I was armed and didn't care. I think most of the time that paragraph is boilerplate

Nope. Once again you've managed to come to the backward conclusion. Are you trying to get the wrong idea, or are you not as smart as I had originally assumed? Leaving people to live their own lives as

Every argument against "immigration" (not even a thing) hinges upon problems government created. Just ree-dick-you-lus.

Cops are cowards-- or they wouldn't become cops.

Many years ago (25? 30?) my first wife (now ex) got a "friendly" letter from the IRS saying she "owed" them. She ignored it and nothing ever came of it. Makes me wonder if they sometimes

The money you save by not being robbed.
