It's not the GOP by itself. The Republicans erode your liberties from one side and Democrats from the other. They are both guilty. Currently, the Democrats have no power. |

Very true. As a kid growing up on eastern Long Island, we would think
nothing of a kid riding down the street on his bike with a shotgun across the handle bars to do a little hunting in the woods. Now, after suburbanization, a kid doing that would probably result in a take-down by a SWAT team. Now that I'm in the process of pre-retirement, and moving to NH, I see the same thing here, although the pro-gun ownership culture (which includes Skylune, btw) up here is much stronger, thank goodness. Of course, our Constitution guarantees the right to bear arms. It says nothing about the right to fly low over peoples homes at all hours. That crap came from the nefarious FAA. |

The Constitution does not mention anything about you having a right to be
hooked up to monitors and recieve treatment when you have a heart attack either does it? Where in The Constitution does it give you the right to drive up my street at 1am and wake up my household?

oups.com... Take a pil Jay! That's the second time you've told someone to take a pill, rather than answer the question posed to you. Maybe you ought to be turned in to the DEA...these pills you're peddling sound pretty potent, if they can accomplish actual question-and-answer without any effort on your part. |

Or, put a better way, each generation grows up with certain restrictions. They add a few more, but not enough to hurt. The next generation grows up with the new restrictions, but never knew anything different, so they aren't bothered by it. And the cycle repeats. Well stated Sir. And as you stated later, obnoxious gun laws have done nothing to prevent crime (albeit they may provide more counts to an indictment) since criminals by definition do not obey laws. Neither do terrorists care about an ADIZ... they'll just go on to other methods and targets. The ADIZ around Washington reminds me of my very forst experience living in a big city... Houston, Tx. Previous I was only familiar with smaller towns in Virginia. There I saw entire neighborhoods filled with houses with bars on all of the windows and doors. At that point I realized that the law-abiding people had become prisoners in their own homes... living behind bars while the criminals roamed freely. |

It is that the politicians that live inside the beltway are so far removed from the realities of the rest of the United States that they make dangerous and stupid laws and have no clue that they are doing. If anything, this illustrates the need for term limits. The founding fathers never intended these people to make careers out of serving in congress. Its a total joke now... as evidence I submit Ted Kennedy. |

There's not enough money in all of Texas to get me to ever move back there |
