    We need to pray that Congress does not approve Obama's appointment to the court and they leave the seat vacant until he leaves office.  This will take a miracle.  Obama will appoint another to the Supreme Court that does not care about the Constitution or our liberties.

    No doubt this president will nominate another piece of detritus like Sotomayor and Kagan.

    With the last mega millions $1,600,000,000 jackpot I did not buy a ticket.  Why bother if you have a 1 in 290,000,000 chance of winning?  Most lotteries are a voluntary tax for people who do not understand odds and numbers.

    I hate insurance companies.  All they are interested in is taking your premiums. 
     
    The Affordable Healthcare Act just made health costs even more unaffordable.  The whole thing should be repealed in my opinion.

    Here is an update on this subject.  A supervisor who was making about forty people miserable was terminated on the 30th of November 2015.  Thus far since he is gone the work environment has improved.  We shall see how the environment continues.

    I despise the word "app" and never use it.  I say "software" or "program" or "application." 
     
    I also hate how "sexy" is used to describe everything.  To say a car or a smart phone is "sexy" is just ridiculous in my opinion.
     
    I do like the words righteous, freedom and liberty.

    What is a twisted version of the Second Amendment?  From what I see conservatives supporting over the years is the right of the people to keep and bear firearms for protection.  
     
    As long as we live in a telestial fallen world we should have training to protect ourselves and have the means to do so.

    It is too bad that our country has gotten away from the spirit of the Second Amendment.  We keep firearms, but most have very little training on how to use them effectively.  Local communities should have organizations for emergency training on using their arms. 
     
    I have over 64 hours of official training with firearm instructors.  About 32 hours of rifle training and over 37 hours of training with handguns.  If anyone is interested I can refer you to a good firearm training facility near Las Vegas, Nevada.

    The Bill of Rights had to do with individual citizens rights.  Some people interpret the Second Amendment as giving power to the government to form an army.  This is incorrect.
     
    Standing armies in a time a peace were viewed by the Founders of America as dangerous to liberty.  An armed citizenry of the common people that were well trained and armed would be a hedge against tyrants.  The view was militia would be well regulated by the common people to prevent it from abusing the people.

    Thomas Jefferson believed the sixth amendment to be the most important in the Bill of Rights.  One right in the sixth amendment seldom talked about is below:
     
    The primary function of the independant juror is not, as many think, to dispense punishment to fellow citizens accused of breaking various laws, but rather to protect fellow citizens from tyrannical abuses of power by government.
    The Constitution guarantees you the right to trial by jury.  This means that government must bring its case before a jury of the people if government wants to deprive any person of life, liberty or property.  Jurors can say no to government tyranny by refusing to convict.

    It is very sad.  In April 2015 the Colorado fifteen round magazine ban repeal came up for vote.  It was defeated by only a single representative's vote in favor of the ban.  It is a feel good law that only makes self defense for the law abiding more difficult.
