All of this has come about without a single vote of Congress. This is not the will of the people as expressed by their elected representatives – as it’s supposed to be in a Republic – it is the dictate of liberal Obama appointees. We are slaves to the bureaucrats.

And there’s nothing we can do about it.

I wonder how many global warming gases come out of the barrel of a gun?

So, you have to conclude that it’s not “emissions” that they’re after, but industry and energy usage itself.

Since CO2 is a normal and naturally occuring compound, and the only way to reduce it is to eliminate the process that produces it (i.e. shut down power plants, park cars, close factories, kill cows, etc.), and since the gubmnit proposes "offsetting" the emission of the noxious CO2 by the payment of large sums of money (mostly to companies owned or controlled by AlGore), the actual purpose of these new regulations is to extort cash to fill their pockets.

The Emperor not only has not clothes, he is on a float parading down main street dry humping Tiger Woods accompanied by several dozen topless Las Vegas showgirls.

Sheesh! How can America be so stupid?!?!?

10 KNO3 + 3 S + 8 C → 2 K2CO3 + 3 K2SO4 + 6 CO2 + 5 N2 (yes, folks, it is a simplified reaction equation)

Simple if I could remember a damn thing about chemistry...

Otherwise, it just makes my brain go "ouch."

Ah, gunpowder. Sad that I had to look it up. I never really was any good at following the chemical equations, however, I can tell you that hydric acid can be deadly when inhaled, but for some reason, it’s benign when ingested.

OK, let’s just say this -

yes, discharge of gunpowder-based cartridges DOES produce CO2 in significant quantities.

But the recipient of the projectile is far more likely to die of lead poisoning than CO2 poisoning.

That's black powder, not smokeless. Oh, so we're gonna let the folks with "primitive weapons" go first, just like in deer season. I get it.

Carry on.

You think EPA's crack scientists (that's scientists on crack) have it mixed up with carbon MONOXIDE?

No; they haven't.

ANYone wtih a brain educated in public schools can SEE that CO2 is TWICE as bad as CO!

But remember:

The inventor of SMOKELESS gunpower got a Nobel Peace Prize!
