Like religion, it's an addiction. Am oft reminded of the dystopic goverment store of Orwell's '84, that propaganda we of the Cold War "duck amd cover" era grew up with, when "looking at" WalMart.Ten Bearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06594307610015584119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-57109815943200942402013-01-06T12:41:25.697-05:002013-01-06T12:41:25.697-05:00Since they object hysterically, shriek, wail, tear...Since they object hysterically, shriek, wail, tear at their hair, and rend of their garments, get their tit's ge in an uproar and knicker's in a knot, over ANYthing a Democratic politician wants, maybe President Obama and the Democrats ought to try an "Opposite Approach" for the next 2 to 4 years!<br /><br />Democrats want gun control?<br />They can tell people that there's no reason recent immigrants, and ghetto bro's and ho's, who can't get as many unlicensed semi-automatics with a huge clip, like the 'white folk' do at gun shows, without feeling like there are hundreds of cross-hairs aimed at them, then some gun shows must be held in barrio's and ghetto's.<br /><br />Want to increase taxes on the rich?<br />Tell people they want to lower the taxes on the rich and corporations to nothing, so they can create more jobs, and pass that tax burdon on the poor, middle, and upper-middle classes.<br /><br />Essentially, become Republicans.<br /><br />Go down the line, with whatever they want.<br />If nothing is accomplished, at least it'll be good for sh*t's and giggles, watching Conservatives flop around like a fish in a boat.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609452382111686086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-84936919242152413802013-01-06T11:59:35.752-05:002013-01-06T11:59:35.752-05:00You want to really get cozy with crony capitalism ...You want to really get cozy with crony capitalism pass a law that guns can't be inherited or sold by the owner privately--they can only be turned over to the police and destroyed once the original lisence holder is dead or incapacitated or choses not to hold them securely. This will increase the market for new guns since each generation will simply have to buy new. The gun manufacturers will pretend to complain via the NRA but in reality they will be thrilled since it means that they can sell new guns to new owners rather thanpermittinga secondary market to flourish.<br /><br />aimaiaimaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03956073425680585780noreply@blogger.com
