      New Stop Signs

      Last Thursday I noticed the utilities marked at the intersections in my neighborhood. About 30 minutes later, a work crew started pulling stop signs and replacing them with larger, more reflective signs. Apparently the new signs are required to qualify for Federal highway. That's someone to...

      China's involvement in Afghanistan?

      Does it make sense for the U.S. to continue borrowing money from China to keep China's neighbor in check? China does not have much experience in peace keeping, and as the article points out, past military interventions have not been successful. Why China is likely to get more involved in...

      is Congress getting dumber, or more plain spoken?

      I find the results of this study rather interesting. I tend to think politicians in general are not as well spoken as their predecessors. They're still speaking over the heads of the average American, so maybe this isn't important? Interestingly enough, Dick Lugar is ranked near the top as a...

      Technically this isn't really a "non-firearms" post, but thought many INGO people would find the story interesting. Calif. man dies at 103; had bullet in his head since 1917

      Republican Values

      Tea Party gained traction with the smaller government and fewer taxes message. I think the moral issues that have been brought into the mix have hurt that movement. The below cited article describes Republicans running on a "values" platform. I feel this send a mixed message and turns off a lot...

      Illegals take advantage of tax loophole ($Billions)

      This is the kind of stupid stuff that our government could easily fix, but have chosen to ignore for years. What really crumbles my cookie is how much I pay to support these freeloaders. (IRS and illegals alike) Some people in Congress are now trying to do something, but only after the...

      Doctor asks: "Do you own a gun?"

      I've noticed past several years, "Do you own a gun?" on medical history forms. I think the reasoning is so doctors can discuss home safety with patients. There's also a set belt related question. I'm not sure most doctors really care about this, and are likely not the best prepared people to...

      Is George Zimmerman Guilty of a Crime?

      There is a lot of healthy discussion on this topic in another thread. I'm not really looking for more discussion. I'm simply trying to ascertain how people feel about his actual guilt. The choices may not be perfect, but I think it will give us a pulse of how people are leaning.

      Another approach to healthcare reform

      Doctors call for end to 45 medical tests - TODAY Health - TODAY.com Eliminating the CYA testing and frivolous lawsuits (tort reform) is not the total solution, but a good start. Just reducing the colonoscopy frequency would make me happy.

      LTCH - Irregular sized pink paper?

      In the old days, I simply folded my Personal Protection Permit (PPP), complete with thumbprint, and carried it in my wallet's photo folder. Now, I'm trying to fit this oblong piece of pink paper (PPP - hey just like the old days) into my wallet. It isn't the same size as a credit card or any...

      Unanimous Supreme Court 1st Amendment Decision - Rare?

      Police shoot and kill armed 8th grader at Texas school

      Appears a 15 year old failed to drop his weapon and was then shot by police. No doubt this is going to be a controversial action, regardless of the details. Tragic from several perspectives. Police shoot and kill 8th-grader at Texas school

      Congress' Select Committee - Will they git 'er done?

      ISP - Gumball deja vu

      This is not really a political posting, but didn't know where else to put it. This morning I'm waiting for the light at Allisonville & 96th , and noticed this next to me. Sure brings back memories. Is this a novelty or is ISP going retro like the Michigan SP?

      Obama has options on debt

      Not all legal "experts" agree on the 14th Amendment solution. This CNN article offers a couple of other options. IF Obama wanted to be a leader, according to at least one constitutional law professor, he could extend the debt ceiling on his own. He could also voluntarily cut current spending...
