We are at a confused and dangerous time in our nation. We have a centralized government, Congress and the President and associated departments. Then we have 50 or 51 states and DC as well as the administrations running our protectorate areas, Puerto Rico, Guam etc.
Each seems to feel that they have the authority to write laws to suit the local ideas or wishes. This causes so very divergent situations in the law as practiced state to state as well as creating Havoc at the central government level.
Gun control has been addressed in a number of ways. One view is that weapons that are designed for war should not be in the hands of John Q Public. Others have the view that if you could afford it you could own a tank.
The attitudes are just as varied on abortion. One view is that it is a matter of women’s health and that she should have the last word in it. Others believe it is murder and that the person or persons involved should face the death penalty. This would extend to the taxi driver that took the woman to the airport, as well as the pilot that flew her out of state. To believe that level of effort should be taken to protect something that does not even have a heart beat is pretty extreme, not to mention stupid.
At the moment we are headed to an election that hopefully put this nation back on track to use logic and reason to solve problems. There is hope and good in the world. We just need to vote and make sure that the worst President we have ever had does not make it back into the White House.
We have put up with 9 long years of listening to the whining and bitching of a man that has never done anything in his life that could truly be called noble or worthwhile. He has been protected all of his life by money he did not earn and the foolish hope of many people that he will take and interest in them and help them out. He won’t, that is not in his nature nor in his plan. Everything is supposed to be about him and there is no place for others.
