Just saying, I'd vote for you for an office. I wish the NRA had taken that kind of stance instead of deflecting the attention to video games. Facts support a return of firearms and an attempt at bringing society back. It's unfortunate that the cost of living today is such that it takes both parents working full time to make ends meet for some. I'd rather have the support of my family and neighbors then rely on 911
Thanks, but I find little pleasure in telling others how to run their lives.
I'd make a very poor legislator - I would try to eliminate property tax and State income tax and reduce sales tax back down to a nickel or four cents per dollar, try to repeal NFA/GCA/HughesFOPA86, and to try to pass a whole bunch of State supremacy re-affirmation legislation.
I wouldn't cater to special interests, industry/organized monopolies, union thugs/organized labor, wouldn't give special breaks to anyone, and would generally try to make this State a freer, more sovereign place. No way they'd vote me or keep me. I would not run if nominated and would not serve if elected. Call me a coward, but I also don't feel like dropping dead at 40 or 45 cause some welfare queen was mad about not being able to have their food stamps extended or some liberal who insists that government has power it doesn't have. No, I'd rather work at the grassroots and write our legislators. I would never want to be one of them. Politician, to me, is generally a worse title than any four-letter word.
(The rare exception being an Amash or Paul or Huelskamp or Cruz or Gohmert, but you don't find too many of those anymore, hence why you have to list them by name, and even then, they still don't get everything right, just most or more things right than most others.)
I'd rather belong to the Fourth Estate and speak truth to power, than to be in power.
Also very sick of NRA et. al. blaming video games and mental health and trying to make end-runs around the Constitution. Seems like people will blame everything and everyone except the person responsible. They'll blame the pills he was on, the video games he played, his tendencies for violence, his upbringing, his social class, his popularity status, any one of a thousand things that isn't truly responsible. No one, it seems, is willing or able to call it like it is: that anyone who would offensively kill other human beings is evil and solely responsible for his actions. We didn't blame the parents of Columbine or the victims or the weapons used at Columbine. We blamed the killers. At least, I did, and do. When does personal responsibility become a factor in this equation?
