I'm so confused... how can they be complying with state law by not allowing carry (which is allowed by state law)??? :uhoh:
It's a Liberal Thing, you wouldn't understand ;-)
I wonder how many of those 30,000 deaths were the result of legal firearms where the shooter had no criminal record .... probably not many. How has the Brady Legislation reduced the number of handgun deaths? It hasn't - especially among the population i just mentioned. How many people are killed by cigarettes every year? second hand smoke?
My biggest question is how you get a job being paid to write drivel like this?
Funny you should ask. I write mostly for my own amusement but I am composing a novel - a police procedural set in - not a big anonymous city but the Dayton suburb where I grew up I can PM you what I have so far (second paragraph of the seconc chapter. Best single line so far is where my hero lets his love interest's 14 year old son light off a round from a .44 Magnum and tells him "That's probably how you're gonna feel the night you get your first piece of a$$" ").
Now I haven't been paid for that...yet. But SOMEBODY got paid good money to write this blurb from a Virginia Lottery pamphlet: "CHECK AND SEE if you have any winning tickets from these games. Once the end of the game passes, no tickets from that game will be honored. Even if the prize is 100,000 dollars!!!"
Somebody write that crapola, and got paid to do it. I could have done the same or better. Washoe the Chimp could have done the same or better. But whoever wrote that probably went to college and got a marketing degree.
Writing drivel is in the same league as talking s%&t. It takes a degree for people to take you seriously. Have a high-schol education and talk/write perfect common sense and you will be dismissed out of hand as "uneducated". Get a BA up and write BS and large froups of folks will worship at your word.
Dem's da conditions what pervail.
