True, but Muslims also consider themselves to be moral and religious. What we have to establish is that the founders specifically had Christianity in mind when they spoke of religion. All our system of laws and institutions are based on the Judeo Christian heritage and ethic.

The New York Times along with their fellow travelers of the Marx persuasion, want to disarm the average, law-abiding citizen. They do this by making laws that makes the average citizen fearful that they might make a mistake and find themselves at the mercy of the courts.

At the same time the law-abiding citizen is giving up their arms at the pressure of Big Government, the foot soldiers in the Illegal Drug Industry are running rampant. They are doing home invasions and armed robberies with no fear of armed resistance. In their drug-induced stupor, they are doing drive-by's, shooting up the competition for their girlfriend, the competition for their drug market and anyone else who crosses their path. And, where are these criminals getting their guns? They are stealing them and getting them on the Black Market.

Let's put the focus where it belongs. Let's do something about the crime and leave the law-abiding alone under the protection of the Second Amendment.

There’s a difference between being moral and considering oneself to be moral.

Jefferson, Hamilton, Noah Webster? What do those old, dead geezers know?

” a palladium as referenced by Justice Joseph Storey (now a dormitory) was a cocaine infused night club/music venue where both the Ramon’s and Frank Zappa (hugh fan) recorded live albums in the 70s. (opened by the owners of studio 54, so it was a big f’n deal)”

I’ll bet the bouncers were all packing .38’s! ;)

Cruz missed Yamamoto saying: “...a rifle behind every blade of grass.”

If you could go back in time and show the Patriots some of the jackholes that pass themselves off as Americans today (like everyone down at the NY slimes) they might just call the whole thing off.

It is well past time to stop playing by rules set by the Left.

Screw the New York Times and its opinions.

Paper of record my Aunt Matilda.

The Old Gray Lady excels in the tactics of “girl bullying.”

Assuredly, but in a war of wits against Ted, the old lady came, er... unarmed.
