made me think of the mod squad an old tv show

I used to believe in a graduated program and step them down every year, but I am pretty much completely opposed now. Over the past few years, I have been in school, which is primarily located in Kansas City. The school is in a rough area with much government housing. During breaks from class, we would go to the 7-11 to get coffee and whatever. It was all the time that I would encounter people (not my classmates) literally buying Slurpees and ice cream with food stamp cards. First off, you should not be allowed to use food stamps at the 7-11 when there is a discount grocery store around the corner. Secondly, if you are using your food stamps to buy slurpees, you're obviously are not starving. Second example was in Walmart with a hispanic lady in front of me. She had about five items including some hygene products, clothing, cheese, and maybe one piece of fruit. The cashier rang it all up, and she tried to pay with everything with the food stamp card. She did not understand why the card would not pay for her clothes. When the cashier finally explained it to her, she purchased the cheese and whatever the other food item was with the card. To pay for the other items, she pulled out a wad of cash like I had never seen before (I'm a broke student) to peel off a twenty to handle the rest. Her wad of cash was probably large enough to handle my living expenses for a semester; I am certain that, at that time, she really did not need assistance for food. With other examples like I have mentioned above, I have decided that if it is really necessary for such programs to exist, we should switch to only handing out food. By food, I mean rice and beans and maybe some type of canned meat once a week, but I guess the rub lies in that it is easier to buy a vote with a slurpee than a cup of rice.

hahahahaha So the Supreme Court cannot be relied on to follow the constitution? What, your interpretation of the constitution? I dunno but I am pretty sure they decide what it all means.

Stating the obvious... we need +51 seats in the Senate, no matter who gets to be dictator.

I've never tried to figure out how much if anything I'm saving compared to the grocery store, but, I compare quality and taste. I love fresh ripe big juicy red tomato's, but I can't stand the hard crunchy tasteless hot house tomato's from the major stores. I know where my vegetables came from and they don't weep in Spanish. I know what pesticides if any were used. And maybe most importantly, if you've ever witnessed migratory farm workers working in the field harvesting produce, there are no restroom / hand washing facilities anywhere. I personally believe this is the cause of most the contaminated produce killing and sickening people. Not Ferrel hogs as speculated where there's no Ferrel hog populations. JMHO.

Danny, I have a Range Officer and it very tight and very accurate. I had a R1 standard model and it was not as accurate and looser. The Range Officer has a forged frame and the R1 doesn't. I own 2 Philippine made American Classics with cast frames I feel are as good as the R1 enhanced for $300 less. I would go for the Range Officer , I feel its a better pistol and will hold more value . JMHO

+1 The mods should clean up this thread Good. If you feel that strongly about it, you should start your own thread about it, instead of crapping in someone else's.
