A whole lot of style, nary a bit of substance.

The only one here that catches my eye is this one.

16. "Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes."

First of all, if my doctor asked me a question like this I'd be finding a new doctor within the hour.

However, if a doctor happened to ask me this question you can be rest assured I'd say "none of your 'effin* business and what the hell does that have to do with what ails me?"

* I can assure you this. The language I used in this example is likely a lot cleaner than the language I would use. And that, is your PSA for today.

Just a prelude to a forced gun grab. They are willing to use military to go door to door and take your guns at gun point. With the socialized health mandate, dr's will soon be required to ask that question. I have gotten reports from various rural areas of people getting stopped by state police for speeding and other ticketable offences and the trooper asking them if they had guns at home, how many, what kind, etc.

One reason I'm glad I live in Texas...

State Representative Steve Toth (R-The Woodlands) has filed legislation assisting the protection of the Second Amendment of the United State Constitution. The "Firearms Protection Act" bill would make any federal law banning semi-automatic firearms or limiting the size of gun magazines unenforceable within the state's boundaries. Anyone trying to enforce a federal gun ban could face felony charges under the proposal.

"We can no longer depend on the Federal Government and this Administration to uphold a Constitution that they no longer believe in. The liberties of the People of Texas and the sovereignty of our State are too important to just let the Federal Government take them away. The overreach of the federal administrations executive orders that are do not align with the Constitution, are not very popular here in Texas," said Representative Toth.


Along with Wyoming, Texas will lead the country in continuing to stand for the sovereignty to run Texas as Texans see fit while exercising the Bill of Rights Amendments 2 & 10 to "prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers… [to] extending the ground of public confidence in the Government."


Along with Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who has already filed over twenty-three suits against the Federal Government, Representative Toth will continue to stand with other Texans to encouraging the promotion of personal responsibility and liberties while actively guarding against outside parties attempting to erode the freedoms enjoyed by Texans so that the people of Texas may have more confidence in their government.

That is an out and out lie, flat out LIE. Stop perpetuating BS you hear Glenn Beck say, they have said REPEATEDLY, not just once or twice, but REPEATEDLY that IF the Assault Weapon Ban was passed that any assault rifles that are legally owned would be grandfathered in. Reading people say stuff like this just flat pisses me the hell off, you're trying to spread fear, BS fear. I'm seriously sick of this sh*t. "They are willing to use millitary to go door to door and take your guns at gun point", where did you hear that? Did Obama say that? Biden? Anyone? Did you even hear some nut like Alex Jones say it or did you just make that BS up in your head? And what in those "executive orders" that are listed is a "prelude to forced gun grab" lmao that sh*t is priceless, I would venture to bet you didn't even bother to read those executive orders.

Wouldn't listen to Glen Beck if my life depended on it. You operate on the premise that government is good. I operate on the premise that government of the type that we have is evil. Doesn't matter anyway, nothing that I have will ever be registered and there is no way of knowing how many I have. My assault looking rifles and all the ammo is hid away. The gubmint knows I have a 30-06 for "sporting purposes".

All tyrannical regimes used registration as a prelude to a gun grab.

You can be a loyal subject of the empire if you want, I am a citizen protecting my rights that you so easily toss away.

You operate on the premise that everyone is out to get you. Continue to live in fear, I'm sure we'll read a story on you shooting someone because of your paranoia some day "but missah he was coming afta ah guuuuunz! i swearz!"

I find it hilarious that you think a tyranny would need for you to register your guns, wouldnt a "tyrant" just simply run into your house and search for them? Oh way that's that logic creeping in, you dont subscribe to that. Obama will come and go and there won't be any dictatorship,t here won't be any civil war, there won't be any invading of homes to take guns... then the next president will come along and if god forbid he mentions ANYTHING about looking at our gun laws you'll scream the very same thing even if he simply says "I think we should keep bazookas and AK47s illegal" and thats it.

All you have to do is read some history books to be very leery of any move to prohibit or ban arms.
