OK. The heading is getting too long. I'm waiting for the swamp to drain. Frankly, disgusted. A day after Trump's fixer pleaded guilty and his campaign manager was convicted I'm looking for some truth. #CNN is reveling in a, well, look, we were right. So I looked at #foxnews. I wondered what they had to … Continue reading Hypocrisy, Lies, FoxNews, Trump….

Stupid
I get sick of stupid. But as Forrest Gump said, "stupid is as stupid does". So let's do this, make fewer entrances to schools.

And the conversation is about teaching our children to "shelter in place". WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH AMERICA? Why, why, do we accept the … Continue reading An Angry White Man
“He Shouldn’t Have Had a Gun…”
I keep hearing this regarding the tragedy in Texas. If the Air Force had notified the FBI, as they were supposed to, of his domestic violence conviction then he would have failed the background checks and wouldn't have been able to buy the guns. Except there's an exemption for gun shows. No background checks are … Continue reading “He Shouldn’t Have Had a Gun…”
307 / 310
310 days have passed this year. In that time there have been 307 mass shootings. When will we say enough is enough? Resist Statistics from Gun Violence Archive as reported on CNN.
Let’s be glad…
That the guy in NYC apparently was too stupid to buy an assault rifle and add a bump stock. Resist
