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.

Why yes. That is the United Nations Building. The ones who want to outlaw private gun ownership world wide in order to let every existing government hold their "subjects" powerless.

They ought to erect something like that in Oklahoma.
Before we can defeat our external enemies, we must first meet and defeat everything in ourselves that is weak, lazy, and cowardly; everything in our character that is materialistic rather than spiritual, which seeks weak compromise and accommodation rather than struggle and victory.

Personally I like the law !
I like the law enough to write out a check for any politician ,regardless of party who signs on or agrees to the principles contained in this law.

I believe this link is in acceptable to the AS guidelines ,if not I would welcome its removal

That is the way we think down here.

Never heard of that publication, but you can bet it has a limited circulation. To be fair, there's a lot of folks on our side that just follow along the given script by their party, and that's just as dangerous, IMHO.
