    I cannot believe this actually made its way to the Senate for a vote. That is insane. But they left out a few things: "whacko," "bloody," and "for the children."

    Hey davesel, you're wrong on so many points. One point here - What happened to "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal...", or do you take it literally to mean "men" and not women or homosexuals? In this context "men" applies to all human beings regardless of gender or sexual orientation.
    Seriously? I guess if we are all "equal," as you have no doubt been "taught" in public education, where there are no longer winners and losers, then I guess I can be an NBA star, and women will perform "equal" to men on the battlefield, and men are just as nurturing as women. Get real. No one is "equal." Some are better at certain skills than others. Women, in general, are better at certain skills than men. Men, in general, are better at certain skills than women. Maybe that's why men and women do not compete against each other in the Olympics? Stop repeating the feminizing chant that "everyone is equal." Just ain't so, and you know it. I can't believe I have to point this out. I did not make it this way, but no matter how much you wish it was not so, it will always be the truth.

    Thankfully, this along with the college CCW bill were killed by their sponsors. What we saw the Rs doing last night against HB 1224 was just warming up in comparison to the heat they would have brought against these two bills. The Dems knew
    they didn't have enough votes to pass either, and wanted to avoid a nasty fight.
    Which is kind of good; it lets us all focus everything on 1224, which is still under debate on Monday.
    To question your government is not unpatriotic — to not question your government is unpatriotic.

    Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.

    But, it's for the children!

    This. Does anyone know (besides the meeting with Newell) if any of the other senators (Giron, Jones) are having any functions this weekend?
    I hate to think that the snow is gonna ruin mobility and our chance to get to them...

    I know a lot of folks will have given up because of last night... I can't.
