Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

The award for most ironic bill goes to Sheila Jackson Lee HR 72
Did this dimwit forget operation Fast And Furious ? And which agency is responsible for arming drug cartels?

The bill by Steve Stockman R Texas and Tom Massie R Kentucky seem have similar purposes and should be strongly supported . These legislators want to repeal the federal gun free zones around schools .
Evidence seems to indicate murdering ,sleazy,cowards ,target  places where they know they will be safe against an armed protector .

Jackson Lee and the other dirty 7  may want to tweak the  law to force every murdering coward to comply with the gun free zones . Maybe a bigger eye catching sign ! Sheesh
