Re: “Morning report: Leaks, guns and welfare kings

What do politicians and confession have in common? Nothing...until they're caught in a scandal of course!
Low-Cotton would no sooner support the Justice department in this instance as much as Dick Cheney confessing to mis-leading us into the hell hole in the Middle East and beyond.

Re: “Welcome Sen. Elizabeth Warren

Of course students should find similar relief. Be it, lower interest rate or longer to pay back school debt. However, our country must begin de-emphasizing the end-all need for attending college as we know it and encourage legitimate tech and trade schools. I emphasize legitimate due to the shy locks peddling on-line and other alternative college that have lousy track records.
Apprenticeships and work pay experience in skilled and less-skilled jobs of the future, streamlining ones ability to jump in and then offer skills needed seem a reasonable alternative to the educational status quo.

Re: “Doctor who shot at car after Arvest robbery gets deal

This is fair. Fortunately, no one in the car or nearby was hit and injured.

If folks are fleeing a crime scene with guns, away from me, where imminent danger is not part of the equation, desptie a temptation to perhaps act, it is against the law and logic to intevene. Watch for the description of the folks, theri gettaway car and plates...is the best route.

Re: “Back to square one for tech park

WTF? This is a joke!
Dump all of them and start over with younger, less biased participants. Or better yet, scrap this abortion of an idea and reduce the tax, as should have done in the first place.
We the peeps..not we the creeps!

Re: “How can Tim Griffin play both sides of pipeline question

I love lil' Timmy shoveling act as he digs in deeper, perhaps(who am I kidding?) someone stronger will run against his next time. I send Timmy and Pryor emails all of the time, letting them know how they continue to bring shame to our State. I even say it thier faces when I run into them around town, which happens a lot. They serve us and I'm going to keep reminding them of this until, yes, my head finally explodes.

Re: “Has Arkansas deregulated guns or not?

Can you imagine...the cross fire and chaos should a room full of people carrying guns decide to "fight back" against a lone shooter? As horrible as the act obviously was, the collateral damage would most likely be greater. Not to mention the panic for a typical gun owner, untrained in stressful, combat-eque scenarios.
I trust my fellow gun carrying neighbor slightly more than a gub toting thug in a stressful situation.
Background checks in every case that guns are exchanged or purchased, eliminate assault weapons...start there, such as Australia and other countries.(please note the dramatic comparison to our country and other large country violent crimes...shocker!) IF each of these killers had a sinlge shot handgun and or rifle, the damage in most, if not all cases would be dramatically less.
You can carry a gun if you feel the need to, yet it should be personal single shot use, not a military or police type weapon in the hands of the untrained. We've gone mad!

Re: “Monday morning report: 'SWATting,' raw milk, guns, Huckabee and more

I think those pictures are adorable...wait a mininute? These are real? I thought it was a spoof showing how idiotic we've become.

My bad! Pay no attention to the further decline of our country - all for sacred the defense of the second amendment...jeesh!
