In a blue state they will ban you from buying a gun , FOR LIFE'' for making a simple mistake on their forms they require

Now if that is not being anti gun, then I don't know what is.



Dirty Harry

There's no such thing as red states or blue states.

The entire idea is a false construct created by our politicians and media to keep Americans angry at people in other states that they don't know, and never will.

Choosing to characterize all of the people of an entire state - the smallest one of which has a population of around 600,000 as just one thing is the worst and most ignorant kind of rhetoric, and it has one purpose: to keep Americans angry at each other for the benefit of a very, very few.

People pushing such a narrative, or even passing it on are the problem.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com] Cabela's doesn't want this in front of their stores. Can you blame them?

Lawyers roles - like accountants - within a truly high performing business are advisory. They're not decision makers.

Any business that drifts that way, for either, is no longer high performing.

Focus #1 is take care of your people. They will, in turn, take care of your customers. You won't know where to put all the money...

I don't know the first Republican/conservative who thinks that all of the citizenry in a blue state are all Democrats or liberals. The term was coined as a description of a state that has traditionally voted Republican or Democrat. Not the individuals, but the state as a whole.

I make my mind up about people according to how they conduct themselves and how they voice their opinions, not according to whether or not they live in a traditionally red or blue voting state.


May God bless America and those who defend her.

Right...and it's complete nonsense, created with the purpose stated above.

Yessir. That's the way adults do it.

Ranting children who willingly get duped into following the lead of politicians and media who want to keep us angry and divided (most at people we've never met) for their own benefit deserve to be treated like ranting children.

It's not just here; there's a lot of them everywhere.

That the numbers of people willing to let themselves be used as puppets by our political class, and media are so great is disappointing.

Yup. But they are here in great abundance. You know the saying, "Work Local. Think Global". We have a huge number of puppets here.
