Interesting how I've been hearing this mindset being expressed lately.

It's only okay if Big Gov approves.

I think there's an awakening taking place in the land.

Let it be so, Lord.

Well, “free speech” isn’t so “free” at your local institution of “higher learning” either.

Been re-reading The Lord of the Rings trilogy the last couple of months--Been a long time since college, and I typically prefer the book to the movie, anyway.

I finished The Return of the King last night, and was struck by the events in the chapter The Scouring of the Shire. The success of the hobbits in ridding their land of the thugs who had seized control lay primarily in saying "No" to self-appointed rulers and arbitrarily imposed policies.

It's past time for Americans to start saying, "Not no, but Hell No!"

The black guy is looking at the camera and appears to be saying “Can you believe this crap?”. LOL.

Reminds me of a birthday party for my daughter years ago.

Winter, cold outside, warm inside, everyone having fun. Then in walks dome teen whose body odor was so strong it immediately filled the entire rink. The management was too shy to ask him to leave so I did. Go to the restroom, wash, or get out! You are stinking up the place!

dome = some. But HE was dumb! The stench was terrible. If It was outside I would not have said a word, but this was an enclosed space.

It’s been awhile since I smoked a cigar. I could use one about now.

I'm assuming you don't approve of public cigar smoking!

I talked to a gay childhood friend yesterday. He’s getting a degree from Notre Dame so I asked him if he was the Bareback of Notre Dame.

He thought it was funny.

***I’m assuming you don’t approve of public cigar smoking! ****

The stinker walked into a large enclosed space and fouled the entire area. If it had been outside I would have said nothing. I have no problem with people smoking outside. It is far easier for me to move upwind.

There used to be a man in my office building who would smoke cigars in the elevators. We could always tell when he was in the building. About the time antismoking ordinances were beginning to outlaw smoking in public space, the office building herded the recalcitrant smokers including him onto one floor. Gradually the cigar smoker along with the others who refuse to give up smoking indoors have been dying off.

The left is cool with you doing whatever, as long as its not political in nature.

in fact, license and profligacy are the best ways to control a people.

Stuff like this is why the occasional natural disaster can help strengthen the herd over time....

Imagine trying to outrun a tornado in those... “Self adjusting anomaly”...
