Default A broader question...

Where can a person go to find the truth these days? I have reached the point of not trusting ANY of the media: I believe that any of the news media will twist the truth beyond recognition, including Fox News and, I strongly suspect, the NRA.

The NRA has serious credibility issues with all the internal strife. The people running the NRA seem to be like all politicians; interested in feathering their personal nests at the expense of the members / electorate.

Is there no honesty and integrity left in this country? I understand what my old boss / friend meant when after many of our discussions on similar topics, he would say "I'm glad I am where I am".

It is truly a sad state of affairs.

To go along with that Gary. What ever happened to the "A Man's word was his bond and a hand shake meant you stand by what you say or do ?
A lot has changed in this old world and it just seems to get worse everyday, with too many drinking and accepting the Kool Aid fed them by Politicians and News media. Bill K

Wonder if she would like to visit my home and see how that works out for her? I will be redistributing the wealth about 200 grains at a time.

SERIOUSLY doubt she will gain much support for this type of legislation even among the current group of liberals. I am thankful for the conservative members of the US Supreme Court. This affords some protection against idiocy of this sort - at least until the liberals expand the Supreme Court and stack it with liberal justices. At that point I will be thankful for the supplies in my reloading room.

How about they start redistributing wealth at her home? SOMEHOW, I think that's not part of the plan.

I video recorded all of my Highpower Rifle matches. Pretty soon I am going to watch them all in reverse order so that I can watch those F Class guys GO HOME and leave us alone so that we can shoot Highpower Rifle.

Default Power to corrupt

I believe that when corporation right to contribute money was recognized as free speech it started a downslide in the two party system.
