"NOW WHAT?"

Just as a little dog, that chases a car, suddenly is faced with the question: "Now What?" when the car stops, so must the head of a country, that has invested all the resources of his nation on an outdated  military technology, on achieving the goal wonder what he has done.  

North Korea has atomic weapons but lives, daily, in the shadow of famine.  The costs of maintaining a nuclear aresenal will probably eat up any revenues from selling technology.  "Now what?", indeed, for the country.

SACRIFICES TO FALSE GODS

Catholic missionaries, to newly conquered lands in the "New World", were appalled and horified by a culture which would willingly sacrifice their young to appease false gods.

I wonder what they might say had they arrived, instead, to a 21st Century culture which posits that a "God-Given Right" namely, gun ownership, allows for the sacrifice of their children, as well.  

WHY WOULD PUTIN ADVERTISE A "SECRET WEAPON"?

For me, the only reason Putin would advertise a "secret weapon" that he could potentially use on an enemy is because his agent in the White House has tipped him off about a secret U.S. weapon being, developed by the Pentagon.  That agent in the W.H. does not have to worry about security clearances and does not have to worry about penalties for revealing classified information which he has already done several times before while in office.

TRUMP LIVID AT MEXICAN REJECTION OF OPPORTUNITY TO COLLUDE WITH HIM

Donald Trump, fully aware that Mexico will never pay for his proposed wall, just wants Mexico to play along with the idea that they might, in order to save face with his base.  Mexico has rejected the idea of colluding with Trump to hoodwink the American public.

Trump is, understandably, livid, about Mexican refusal to go along with his request.  Donald says he colludes so well with superpowers like Russia, it is the greatest insult to be treated this way by a sh-hole of a country like Mexico.

AGGRAVATED BONE SPURS

Had that poor, armed guard, at that Parkland high school, not suffered a severe attack of aggravated bone spurs, at the time of the terror shooting by a former student, I am sure that he, despite being outgunned by someone with an assault rifle capable of firing high-velocity bullets capable of inflicting lethal damage with even a flesh wound, would have willingly sacrificed his life, in vain, for the cause.

Let us, all, be more sympathetic to sufferers of bone spurs.  

SELFISHNESS OF THE ANTI GUN LOBBY

What the Anti-Gun folk fails to acknowledge is the hardship, suffered by the American people, during the 10 year period from 1994 to 2004 when automatic rifles were legally banned.

Nowhere has there been recorded any sympathy for the people who lost their livelihood or were unable to put food on the table for their loved ones.   Noone has mourned the loss of income, by hard working undertakers, from unarranged funerals.  Little or no empathy was shown for the boredom suffered by EMT personnel all over the nation.

Search and you will find no record of the joy and celebration, throughout the land, when, finally, during the Bush Administration, the ban on automatic rifles was allowed to expire, and an oppressed minority was once again free to target indiscriminately.

The selfishness of the Anti-Gun Lobby will forever be noted in the annals of the insane.

URGENT AGENDA

With 4 Million teenagers, who feel like they are an endangered species being hunted by madmen, coming of voting age by the time of 2018 elections, and, presumably.  another like number for the 2020 elections, the Republican Party are facing the formidable task of repealing the 26 Amendment to the Constitution, to prevent what could be a disaster for them.  

There is so little time but it would be so much easier to do that than face the wrath of the N.R.A.
