so what, it is their fault for not putting back money for their old age. my mom put enough money back so she could retire at age 53, long before she could start collecting socialized security.

if people do not save for their own future, then too bad.


just because people do not save for their own future, does not mean that everyone else has to provide for them.

Back to the subject of the thread,

Many of these militias are set on an Armed Confrontation with the Federal Government and a lot of wannabes are going to find themselves in the middle of a fight which may level a city or two.
I just hope they understand that when they take up arms against the United States they are no better than Al Quieda and the time for discussion is over

The question at that point becomes- Who is the United States? When a tyrannical president is compelled to send troops against his own citizens or defy the will of the people, then it is certainly time to change governments. Again, I truely believe that if Barry would ever consider sending in federal troops to defy state law, that the military would defy his orders. They do not like him any more than the rest of us.

THAT'S your argument? Seriously?

"The trucks that transport the firearms"? HAHAHAHAHA

How about "the clothes that the firearms company execs wear were made out of state" or "the TV in the break room at the gun factory was made out of state", too?

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

This has nothing to do with states' passeges of the 10th Amendment legislation. Nothing whatsoever. Talk about fear-mongering alarmists. Geez!

People die for all sorts of reasons. Death is part of life.

Would you be willing to back up your statement that the deaths you claim are directly attributed to SS not existing rather than any form of disease? Specific numbers please of how SS alone has extended life expectancy?

(Can't wait for this........)

Of course.....this has nothing to do with Wyoming and other states right to regulate trade/sales within their state borders does it?

Oh, never mind... You got my hopes up, B.

Another classic Boompa post. Newsflash, B... Your post is off topic and has nothing to do with "the subject of the thread." My guess is that you didn't like the direction the thread was headed, probably because you know that the premise that the law is based on is valid, but you don't like it. So what do you do? You do what you do - change the subject and make some inflammatory statement about militias, wannabes and al Qaeda.

Classic Boompa, and confirmation that the decision to put you on ignore was the correct one.
