From the article: The irony gave me a headache. Could you imagine if the right tried to justify a law by giving historically racist examples from the past? Just remember that california will give you cancer.

I'm thinking they won't be able to get a boat in close enough without it becoming an artificial reef unless we want it there. Same goes for missiles. I can't imagine one of our vessels being there and not being on high alert for anything. Although, I wouldn't put it past our .gov to "accidently"...

I agree. There is more to the story. It could very well be a mental health issue. Or it could be that he was trying to escape responsibility for something like what happened up here last year - Sheriff: Deputy involved in murder-suicide stole $500K with wife. I will reserve judgement until more...

Its his favorite kind of ice cream. Honestly, I'd rather we pull right out of the world and let them deal with the consequences. However that isn't a possibility. No other nations armed forces are as powerful or able to project that kind of power anymore. Too many terrorist organizations are...

As usual, the ones making environmental/ hunting regulations have not a single damn clue. You would be very hard pressed to actually hurt the population of the animals that are traditionally hunted in contests. Hence the reason for the contest. Coyotes will regulate their population in regards...

Most of the garbage that has been pumped out at the state/federal level has been like this. Could you imagine what could be accomplished if even half the effort was put into real, useful legislation rather than what it's currently spent on? I like that barometer. I'm fact, I use it myself. When...

I think it's more of the usual grandstanding. The contract with applegate is for 33 years. It sounds as though Chick-fil-A will be good to go for the duration that contract. Note- I have not seen any details of said contract so I could be wrong. This quote here: From This article shows their...

I believe it's for future contracts. Most of my time spent on the thruway is at night. Mostly because it's easier driving with less traffic to deal with. Restaurants at the rest stops are almost never open. There are, however, vending machines available for use. That fact invalidates the states...

The irony of the Amish is incredible. Modern technology is too "worldly" unless it benefits them. In a grid down situation, they will be way better off than most, but in now way would they continue as they are. I see buggies at the grocery store and Lowe's on a regular basis. It isn't 1830 any...

Keeping that amount of hate inside will do that to a body. It isn't healthy at all.

As much as I'd like it to be, it holds about as much power as the counties that passed resolutions against the safe act. Which is about nothing. It showed us which counties supported us. Nothing more. They need to pass laws saying they will not stoop to tyranny and will not enforce or allow to...

Islam has hated the United States almost since it's conception. Re: the Barbary Wars. People thinking it's something new or only since the end of WW2 need to get a better history book.

Reality has absolutely nothing to do with it. Never has. Another point to ponder. Many districts have an early and late morning/afternoon runs for elementary and middle/high school. The same busses are used for both runs. Not to mention 2-3 or so buses used for boces and let's say another one...

I'll accept this opinion as soon as it's applied to the current president.

Your absolutely correct about that. @GOPerfect is correct as well. It is unfortunate that it's only ever the citizens that pay for bad policy though. At least those of us who wanted nothing to do with it. The rest will bitch about it, apparently not realizing that it is what they wanted. I...
