I don't see a problem with that world view. Good grief, am I a liberal anarchist? I only have a PELLET gun, though.
It does keep away the crows and ravens. That's what I bought it for. My husband was able to HIT the birds, as he was a SURE SHOT. I stupidly sold all this guns when he died four years ago. He had two rifles (one was an 'over-under Air Force rifle) and eight pistols plus the pellet gun.
I used to LOVE the little Beretta he had as it fit in my hand. The target he gave me was Osama bin Laden. I got so I could NAIL that fool's beard nine out of ten times from 20 feet away. That was GOOD for me.
As for the ravens and crows, I accidentally hit one a couple of months ago. The pellet merely annoyed the bird but it did LOOK at me. NOW, when I appear at the window or out on the back deck, those crows and ravens make a BEELINE away from me.
Now, I'm beginning to see the hummingbirds again and I finally saw a robin this morning. The blackbirds like to kill and eat other birds.
Chalk one up for "Pellet Patty" and her magnum .357 pellet gun!
Yes, He is.
“What changed his mind? Was it his turn?”
Maybe; he may have also spent the last twelve years watching his country turn into a Third World settlement, and realized that this is just speeding up that process...
NHS/Obamacare + euthanasia... what is not to like for the death party...
Guilt and remorse, two terrible feelings to bear.
Nowadays a body can be kept “alive” indefinitely. There are levels of pain in which pain killers are absolutely, totally useless against. How about the people whose bodies are so damaged there is no hope whatsoever of recovery. All they do is lay in their own filth until a nurse notices they have defecated. They face nothing but 24 hour a day excruciating pain, (unrelenting torture, actually) that, with the aid of machines, can go on day after day, month after month.
Do you?
Bump
Too bad, old man. Now its in the law, and soon it will be “voluntary” (that is, “wouldn’t you rather stop the pain, old person? It doesn’t hurt a bit. It will be peaceful.”)
“Disposable” people soundly endorsed by the American people too.
I agree with you.
It’s considered humane to euthanize an animal dying in pain, but the human must endure it.
I understand the reasoning behind it but I don’t agree with it.
If that’s what you believe, fine. But what about those who don’t believe what you do. Should you impose your belief on them? To put the question another way, if I decide that I want to end my life, should my choice prevail or yours?
I thank God for opening his eyes and mind to the reality of what he formerly thought was a “good idea.”
And may he remain strong in face of the attacks that will now come from those who continue to support euthanasia.
What kind of naive idealistic liberal would believe such a thing?
In a world where people have their pets euthanized so they can go on vacation, who seriously believes that people won't have their relatives euthanized once they become inconvenient, or--worse yet--stand between them and a cushy inheritance?
Too late. Obamacare has death panels to decide if we should continue to live.
YOU ending your life is YOUR business. But, that is ONE thing you gotta do for yourself. Having a doctor there to help you makes him/her complicit.
No kidding.
Look how long it took to see the reality and the truth of this horrible idea.
Maybe if these people didn’t HATE CONSERVATIVES so much they might just listen to us and find out that just may HAVE A POINT once in a while.
Thanks for the ping!
