Re: Tough to be a conservative in America today
I believe that it has been tough to be anything but a Democrat for decades. The Democrat party play book starts with "play nice with us or will mess you up." We have seen a parade of Supreme Court justice nominees from Bork forward. The trashing of "W" was epic and the attacks on...

Re: War with Russia
I recorded Tucker Carlson on Thursday night and finally watched that recording last night. He claims that U.S. troops are in Ukraine fighting directly against Russian troops. If this is true, I can see no way that body bags are not going to come out of it for U.S. soldiers. How will that be explaine...

Re: "Felony" sign
Your decision to test that is up to you. I prefer to think of it as weighing the risks. The type of gathering that I was attending has been the target of violent confrontations. Given the recent school shooting in TN, which I believe was ideologically motivated, there is no reason to assume that I ...

Re: "Felony" sign
Sometimes I wonder if the folks that are responsible for posting any of these signs, legal or not, really believe it is keeping guns out or if they are simply trying to cover their butts from any potential lawsuits resulting from shootings on the premises. It is just hard for me to imagine anyone b...

"Felony" sign
Last night, I attended a banquet held in a Texas Motor Speedway building. There will be Indy car racing there Saturday and Sunday but my event was unrelated. I thought that I took a picture of the sign but I was being reused past the entrance by an attendant and the picture apparently didn't actuall...

Re: Lewisville Pawn Shop Murder on Valentine's Day
Lewisville has more of a crime exposure than many realize. Being along I-35, criminals can drive in, commit robbery and murder and be back on the freeway before police can arrive. Parts of the town are known hang-outs for drugs and those always attract crime. People used to laugh at me for refusing ...

Re: Gun Control Laws Backfiring in California
We are past the point where any logical argument or set of facts, no matter how clear and well presented, is going to change anything on any subject that the Gavin Newsome's of the world pick. It wouldn't batter if there were a mass shooting every week in every California city. The agenda is the age...

Re: War with Russia
Explain again why the US government and its NATO puppets are working so hard on kicking off WW3 over Ukraine and what the benefits are to the American people? The Russians are justifiably unhappy at the prospect of German tanks rolling across Ukraine towards Russia. The US military industrial compl...

Re: El Paso Walmart Shooting
Last year, a Texas judge put off a state trial in the case as federal prosecutors determined whether they would seek capital punishment. This should have been a State trial, not a local one. This "hate crime" ploy is just another method of Federal overreach. Double jeopardy is basic right...

Re: Kenosha Wisconsin Shooter discussion
They deleted or had my comment on FB removed. It wasn't a threat in any way. The other social media I saw for them had comments turned off so I don't know who they are getting threats from. I have never been a fan of boycotts, but I'm think more and more that gun owners need to somehow organize to ...

Re: Woman killed by FT Worth PD officer
I'll say again that I'm a supporter of the police. I am. I mean it. But I hold no hope at all that the FWPD leadership will learn anything from this incident. Am I happy that the officer was sent to jail for more than 10 years? Absolutely not. I believe that the verdict further assures a chasm betwe...

Re: house speaker fiasco
The fix has been in on this from the get-go. Pelosi's seat didn't have a chance to grow cold before McCarthy was already occupying it (literally). Notice that the usual political and media suspects aren't griping about McCarthy himself, but about the process of getting him in. That tells you all yo...

Re: 2023 Legislative Session

Re: house speaker fiasco
