    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Gun Control

This is why I don't kill people with guns...
It USED to be all about being responsible for your actions, and I could deal with that. Now, it's as if people think the guns are killing of their own accord.

This is what I call gun control :D

"Two Dozen Men Arrested In "Operation Concord" In Boston. The Boston Herald (1/18, Zaremba, Sweet, 91K) reports that "some two dozen men - with more waiting in line to follow - netted by local, state and federal law enforcement agents in a citywide crackdown on guns and drugs early this morning have been ordered held without bail for 10 days at their joint initial appearance before US District Court Magistrate Judge Robert B. Collings." According to officials, 30 "federally indicted members of two Dorchester street gangs were busted" early Thursday morning "in a series of raids titled Operation Concord and more than a year in the planning that targeted a cocaine, heroin and marijuana-dealing ring." The "FBI-led raid" included "a few hundred" law-enforcement officers, including HSI agents. "As this operation shows, now it's the gang members who have something to fear," said Bruce M. Foucart, special agent in charge of Homeland Security investigations in Boston.

The Quincy (MA) Patriot Ledger (1/18, 37K) quotes Foucart as saying, "This effort shows our collective resolve in Boston and the Commonwealth to attack and dismantle these dangerous street gangs. For too long, gangs here and elsewhere have used violence and intimidation to hold communities hostage. As this operation shows, now it's the gang members who have something to fear.""
 
Mean while,back in reality . . . . . . . . . . .


The other sad reality, Mr. President, is that almost nothing proposed this week in Washington, D.C., by your administration will do anything to stem the tide of gun violence in our inner cities. Most of these crimes were not committed with semi-automatic assault weapons, they weren’t committed by the mentally ill, and they won’t be stopped by universal background checks.

Be interesting to see how 7 yr old came into possession of weapon.
 
Hasn't it been said that a good leader leads by example?

Someone sent me this doctored photo recently to drive home an obvious point about the proposed gun laws.

[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]So as a Program and News Director, here’s a Pop Quiz for my fellow media brethren and cisterns [sic] assigned to covering or commenting on this tragedy and its fallout. Before the ON AIR light comes on or the floor director gives you the finger (cue), correctly answer the following:[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Have you ever fired a gun? (NB: water, cap, BB, paintball and fingers are not acceptable)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]How many guns have you seen become violent? If your answer acknowledges an individual is necessary to operate the weapon, why, then, are you using the term "gun violence" and not "human violence"? [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]In 25 words or less: What is an "Assault Weapon"? Be specific[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif] (Extra Credit: From Columbine to Newtown, how many involved "Assault Weapons"?)[/FONT]
​
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]What is the difference between a "magazine" and a "clip"? Use both in a sentence.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Is a .223 cartridge more or less powerful than the predominant rifle cartridge used by American fighting men in WWII?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif](Extra Credit: What was the caliber of the predominant rifle cartridge used in WWII?)[/FONT]
​
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]If you had to choose, would you prefer to shot with a .22? .223? 30-06? 00Buck?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]("None of the Above" is an understandable but unacceptable answer)[/FONT]
​
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Why is a black gun more dangerous than one made with differently colored components?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]If black guns are bad, isn’t that racist?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]How does a bayonet lug make the "assault rifle" more lethal?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif](Extra credit: How many drive-by bayonetings occurred in the US last year?)[/FONT]
​
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]To the nearest 100,000, how many Assault Rifles are made of Nerf? [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Within 10,000, how many times a day do law-abiding gun owners prevent a crime without firing a shot? [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Approximately how many gun laws (State and Federal) are in force in America today?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]With so many laws already in force, what are the compelling reasons to believe criminals and mass murders will obey the new ones?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]If faced with a home invasion, would you want to be holding your phone or your firearm?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, Times, serif]Since nearly all newspapers, TV and radio News Departments have blown the bottom out of the septic tank to set a new level of journalistic integrity and responsibility, all of the above questions had to be answered correctly. Failure relieves you of any reporting/announcing/discussing responsibilities pertaining to Newtown, the 2nd Amendment and any future stories involving firearms. If you fit this description, please report immediately to the Assignment Desk to cover the latest on Lady Ga-Ga’s bra, Nicki Minaj’s hair or Manti Te’o’s undercover angel.[/FONT]
 
The Obama administration is openly escalating its campaign against private gun ownership, and shaking up the top ranks of the military command structure -- but is it also preparing to make war on the American population?
According to a person identified as a former senior military official, the answer to that shocking question is yes.
