Lots of good guys live in Idaho! I know, because I have a lot of clients there. Idaho is probably the most “American” of all the states as far as people living there who don’t like strong central government and all that goes with it. They’re finally getting up with Kennesaw, at least in one place. In my five year old book, “Consequences,” (still available free by e-mail) under the chapter on guns, I detailed the case of Kennesaw Georgia, where they passed a law requiring everyone to own a gun, ammunition, and to know how to use it. Crime plummeted. Five years later in Kennesaw, crime is almost non existent as far as guns are concerned. Why not? If you were a thug who robbed for a living, and you thought that everyone had a gun, you’d probably change your occupation, or go to more friendly surroundings. Greenleaf Idaho, is about to pass the same legislation, and hooray for you. This, according to the NRA magazine, which is always excellent.
Meantime, of course, the gun grabbers (democrats and liberals) will soon gain control of the Congress, and on the Sunday news shows, liberal Minnesota idiot Dingel has promised to try to legislate against what he calls “food supplements,” which we all call vitamins and minerals. We, or at least most of us, know that vitamins and minerals give us long life and good health. You’d better also believe that they’ll try to outlaw guns, so that only outlaws will have them. Australia and the U.K. have done it, and crime in those places has skyrocketed. You’d better get all the guns you can without registering them. Makes sense to me. In California, Governor Arnie has refused to sign the liberal bill which would have been a first step in that process. Good for him!
Iraq continues on as last week, with more maimings, murders, beheadings, and other assorted atrocities. The gurus in D.C. think they should stay there so as not to be like Vietnam, where we left “before the job was done.” It’ll never be done as long as we are there. Vietnam is exactly like Iraq. We went to both places when we shouldn’t have, messed in other’s business, and suffered from it. When we left Vietnam, they prospered. If we left Iraq, apologized, and paid for damages, they’d probably prosper too. They’d undoubtedly become three nations rather than one, which would rectify the damage done after WW I, when Iraq was forced to exist in the first place. Metals have jumped again, and will soon overtake their previous highs.
