Shaking my head....

at a few things today, starting with the fact that apparently some people thought that someone who participated in a beauty pageant--Miss Alabama, apparently--would be offended at being called beautiful.  Whatever one thinks of beauty pageants, isn't the point supposed to be that some people are declared beautiful?  You might as well say that a Corvette is insulted by being called a fast car.

In the political world, President Obama and Vice President "Slow Joe" Biden are apparently of the opinion that they are going to get more gun control, control over the subject matter of movies and video games, and they're going to do it by executive order.  So they're declaring not only the 2nd Amendment to be a dead letter, but also the 1st Amendment and Article 1 of the Constitution.

If they do it, it's time to impeach both of them.  This has gone on long enough.

Also on the guns front, an article on CNN argued for guns that are smart enough to figure out whether others are carrying a gun, are an adult or a child or government official.  One would have hoped that this person would have figured out that if this technology existed, we might better use it to protect our soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, but apparently the anti-gun mindset (mindless-set?) isn't up to speed on this.
