My neighbor the Squirrel - It is now WAR!


This morning he tore up a cushion on my porch. He had been using leaves, but now he is getting lazy and took the stuff from the cushion. Very bad boy!
UPDATE: He took lots of the fluffy cushion stuff up the tree, but on Friday it was very windy, and it all blew down! Parts are hanging from the tree and it is scattered all over my front and my neighbors front! I went and picked up as much as I could...It filled a Garbig bag! AARRGGGE! I am sure it will keep coming down for a long time!

Gun Control

I do not understand why people are opposed to any type of gun controls.

If we try to purchase cold medication at the drug store, we have to show a reason for getting it. In some states you don't even have to show an ID to get a gun!

Some statistics:

Amendment II of our Constitution:

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."

New York City closed down all the Guns stores about 2 years ago. The gun violence went down 50% the following year.

The supreme court has ruled 5 times AGAINST Individuals having the "right" to carry a gun. These court charges were always brought by Gun companies and was ruled against them. I do not understand why we don't have a federal law to limit gun sales.
