Does our government really believe in our "Constitution" anymore and do people even care?

Gun Control? How much more do we need?

Do We Need Gun Control? Easy answer is NO! This election year has created many opinions on how to reduce gun related crimes. People need to realize that creating more laws isn't going to reduce anything. We already have background checks to prevent felons from legally purchasing guns, but they will always have access to purchase them on the black market. The easiest way to explain this is illegal drugs. Even though some drugs are illegal people still find ways to get them. Prohibition was in

Racism in America?

Why is racism manifesting again in America? Our communities are becoming over whelmed by racism and hatred. Why? I see many individuals that are afraid. Afraid of what our county has become. Take for example individuals in prison. Many people join gangs and groups of the same race for protection. It has been breed into our thoughts for many generations. Some individuals more than others. Our government and the media hasn't helped. They have made it worse! We, as American citizens, need to see

Welfare - Should we care?

How welfare is affecting our country? This is a hard topic. Welfare by definition is: "a government program for poor or unemployed people that helps pay for their food, housing, medical costs, etc." Pretty simple right? Wrong! This program has been established for many years to help out those in need. This is a good thing, but somewhere along the line people started taking advantage of it. Yes, there are legitimate cases where individual and family need help making ends meet, but what about the

Who is the B.L.M.?

Why is it that we have been hearing more and more about the Bureau Of Land Management or B.L.M.? The B.L.M. is a Federal Agency that was set up to protect certain lands and animals for what they say is for the good of our country. From the B.L.M. website: http://www.blm.gov/wo/st/en/prog/more.html This will give you information on what they say they manage and why. It is just very interesting that a land conservation program needs there own assault team with automatic weapons. Also, wouldn't

"The Wall" This Should Be Interesting

"The Wall" Many of you have heard about "The Wall" that Mexico "is" going to build. It "will" help keep out illegal immigrants and drugs that will divide our southern states and Mexico. Donald Trump keeps proposing that this will happen. Is he really talking about a physical wall, or does he just mean that he wants to strengthen our presence along the boarder? Who knows? I wouldn't mind fortifying a wall with actual guards. I say give our National Guard something better to do here, in the

Respecting Our National Anthem

Do kids these days really respect our National Anthem? I recently read an article about a college basketball coach who got so upset about the disrespect that he has seen during the singing of our National Anthem, and I thought it would be appropriate to share this with you. The respect, or lack of respect that not just kids, but people in general these days just don't have anymore. Personally, and hearing from outside sources, people just don't treat others the way our parents taught us growing

Another Civil War?

Is our government trying to provoke another civil war? I have seen some dramatic things happening in the past couple years. It's good to see people protesting their rights being infringed upon. But..... American citizens need to stop listening to groups that are trying to segregate into certain races, religions, etc.... Everything that has been happening has to do with every American Citizen. We need to publicly ban together to change our government. We are doing exactly what our government

President? Who and Why?

President? Who and Why? We need someone who understands what it means to work for the people. Is there anyone running who can bring trust back into the White House? Democrat or Republican, who cares as long as they don't allow money to over power what is necessary to turn this country around for the "People". I am torn between Trump and Cruz. Trump scares me some because of how blunt he can be, but that is one of the things I like about him also. He seems to me to be the one individual that

Is the issue really the guns themselves?

Is the issue really the guns themselves? NO! How's that for an answer. Education and common-sense go a long way. Yes, accidents will happen and it is sad, but I don't see our government trying to ban cars because people lose their lives to these daily. There are too many ignorant people that don't understand why these rights exist today. What I have heard, "It is a different time" or "Our government infringes on our rights to keep us safe". Wow, there are so many individuals alive today that

Why are we letting other counties take advantage of America?

Why are we letting other counties take advantage of America? Is there a reason why we are importing goods from other countries when we have millions of Americans out of work collecting unemployment. How much is this costing us? It just blows my mind that we can import something cheaper than we can produce it here. We need to bring jobs back to the USA! My neighbor lost his job. I was concerned and decided to ask him what happened? With disappointment in his eyes he told me that the business he

Helping our citizens first.

Helping our citizens first. Why is it everytime I see a story of somebody in the streets, sleeping in a cardboard box, it just pisses me off? The same day I will see some kind of charity raising money to help some other country. I do not have a problem with helping anyone, but when it comes to Americans, we should always be first! My thoughts: 1. We see too many Americans homeless, hungry, and mentally ill. Our economy seems to be a major contributor. It pisses me off when I hear that we just
