This is the emasculation of males in this country, Johnny is not allowed to play with guns he plays with dolls now!
This is a man who protects America! how? with a weapon! not a fly swatter.Teach your child why he carries a gun and why he dedicates his life to preserve ours!
This is what she actually feels... she's just putting it in the mouths of children...
C. S. Lewis was very wise. He went on to write, "By confining your child to blameless stories of child life in which nothing at all alarming ever happens, you would fail to banish the terrors, and would succeed in banishing all that can ennoble them or make them endurable."
Columbine parent Linda Cuesta said she endured long, panicked moments after the shooting desperately looking for her son. During that time she bargained with God. If her son made it out safely, she'd go to work against guns.
Her son escaped safely, and Cuesta has found a cause.
"I used to be polite, and I tried to understand the need for citizens to own guns, to own arsenals," she said.
"I'm not polite anymore. I want the NRA out of this city and out of this state."
The Doughboy statue, entitled "The Spirit of the American Doughboy", which once stood in Garfield Park, has been restored and given a place of honor in the new Soldier Field. The life-size Doughboy, sculpted in the early 1930's of sheet metal and cast bronze, according to its sculptor E.M. "Dick" Viquesney of Spencer, Indiana, represents "a World War I infantryman advancing through No Man's Land through stumps and barbed wire entanglements, his rifle in one had and a grenade held high in the other".
Okay, Fuchs, Emily and Cuesta, Linda. Any others for the list?
Ah, yes, there we go. That's three:
Cassidy, Emily
Cuesta, Linda
Fuchs, Emily
Ann Levy of Denver, who calls herself a "peacenik," would like to see Dietz's sacrifice honored in a different way.
Cassidy, Emily
"They should be putting up a peace dove instead," she said. "The question is do we stand for peace or do we stand for war?"
Cuesta, Linda
Fuchs, Emily
Levy, Ann
Emily Cassidy will be the next cindy sheehan when her child grows up and enlists in spite of her. Must be a married name, if she were truly of Irish descent, her children would be fighters.
