Re: Quora question on why some oppose gun control
I read Quora a lot and have not seen either Annoyed Man or Puma Guy posts. I will start looking. It is great site.

Re: 2025 Legislative Session: Senate Bill 89
Given the current situation in the Texas House, i don't see how any gun related legislation has a prayer of passing.

Re: Guess who had USAID money “laundered” to them?
USAID is but one of the many feeding troughs for the people's money that the uni-party has set up. While the Democrats are the biggest pigs at that trough, by no means are the Republicans not involved. If nothing else, they have turned away from watching this stuff for decades. USAID was those decad...

Re: More people murdered by pilot at the controls of a plane than by mass shooters
I'll add to the thread drift to say that a video I saw last night (cannot find the link this morning) was done by a pilot or at least he was in a pilot's uniform. The bottom line was that the helicopter pilot asked for and was granted "visual separation" which meant that he had eyeballs on...

Re: New Texas Speaker of the House
As always, the truth lies not in what they say but in what they do. I'll crawl out on the limb and suggest that almost none of the Republican agenda, as set forth by the grass roots organizations, will be accomplished in this session. There will be no new 2nd Amendment bills. We can only hope that t...

Re: Rep. Giovanni Capriglione (HD98)
The Dems must have some dirt on Capriglione. I don't think so. We were all fooled by him when he first ran. Since then, he has maintained his position through the strength of the same people who keep the Tate/Spencer dynasties going in Grapevine. There are a lot of Republicans in Tarrant County (an...

Re: Nationwide Reciprocity
Cornyn is a cosponsor in the senate. Forgive me if I remain skeptical Wonder what he's looking to trade this time? :iagree: Like many others, I view this as a Cornyn "show vote" where he knows the outcome (defeat of the bill) but pushes it to try to shore up his position. I had sleepless ...

Re: Rep. Giovanni Capriglione (HD98)
I am no longer in Tarrant County but I was one of the ones who protested Gio's predecessor in order to help him get elected and who has campaigned against him ever since to try to get him out of office. Why? because the first thing he did in office was to vote for Joe Strauss for Speaker after he fa...

Re: I Voted!... (Non Political)
Wife and I voted this morning. Took an hour from getting out of the car to getting back into the car. Lady checking me in didn’t want to take my LTC as ID because she didn’t want to have to type in the information instead scanning the DL. I just politely pointed at the “valid forms of ID” document ...

Re: John Kerry says get rid of the 1st Amendment
His concern is that climate change measures cannot be adapted. Yet in the country with the tightest controls on free speech (China), no climate change measures are being adapted. They are building new coal fired generating plants, the supposed worse pollution. And not a word was spoken about that si...

Re: Texas State Fair Carry Rules
For me, the reductio ad absurdum aspect of this is the degree to which the organization running the State Farm must adhere to ANY of the the rules of the City of Dallas. If they are truly an independent situation, then none of the Dallas specific laws and rules must be adhered to. But I'm wiling to ...

Re: Walz: communism "means that everyone is the same and everyone shares"
You may be correct that 50% of the public doesn't care about Walz's CCP-like policies I have a different view. Much of the 50% has no idea what any of that means. They are totally disconnected from reality. It is not firmly held political opinions that drives their voting - it is ignorance and propa...
