Anyone who has a gun and doesn't use it to kill you is showering life itself on you.

LOL bump!

I've been thinking all day long about the outrage of sending CALIFORNIA water at taxpayer expense...to grow rice in the desert!

My husband's grandmother was threatened with high fines and imprisonment if she didn't cut her water consumption by 10%. (Everyone in her area was threatened the same way.) Problem was, as a survivor of the Great Depression, she was already as frugal as a human being could be with everything that came into her home, including water. There was literally no way to cut her consumption 10%! A lawyer was needed to stand between her and a local government that sought to mindlessly control everyone in their power....

And they will send huge amounts of water into the desert to grow a crop that grows just fine in wetter places like Arkansas and Texas....
