Gunning for the Supreme Court

Finally, a ruling that actually interprets the constitution instead of changing it. After the past month of the Supreme Court making law, they finally decided to do what they’re supposed to do; interpret it. It is obvious that the constitution provides for civilians to have the right to own guns. If guns were outlawed, criminals would still have them. They would no longer have to worry about being shot by anyone but police when committing a crime. Taking our guns would just embolden criminals and the crime rate would skyrocket. Of course we still need regulation, but not another prohibition.

Immigration and America

I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. What about the rights of those who were BORN here? God is not some Christian, right wing, political push. Rather, it is a fact that Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. God is part of our culture. We should accept your beliefs, and not question why. All I ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us. We also speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. If you want to become part of our society . Learn the language! Immigrants, not Americans, must adapt. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU chose.

Drilling

Why is it that so many people think drilling is not the answer to high fuel prices? The US has more proven oil reserves than any other nation. People say we will just be postponing the inevitable. Yea, let's run our economy into the ground so we can hurry and get electric cars. We will be postponing nothing. There are already strong efforts being made to produce alternative, and energy efficient commodities. So why not drill now, lower fuel prices, and save our economy for the time being until we get fuel efficient. I am all for fuel efficiency, but let's save our economy and learn to save fuel.

Global Warming

All this talk about global warming. I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I hear the politicians mention global warming. Global warming is unsubstantiated no matter how you look at it. But suppose it IS true. Here is a fact that IS substantiated. One volcanic eruption produces more pollution than man ever has. Sure we should care for the environment, but we should also be sensible.

Government Handouts

I am sick of all the promises the presidential candidates have been making. All these handout programs need to be stopped. The government needs to stop creating poverty. Welfare and other such programs only offer an incentive to be lazy. Government should provide a program that would offer these people government jobs, according to their skill level. Compensation could be housing and food, and some amount of pay based on work participation. These people need incentives to get somewhere in life, not incentives to rely on handouts.

Our Oh So Great Candidates

As you may have guessed from the picture, I'm not too fond of any of this election's candidates.
