Hanover County Shooting [Ashland, Virginia- North of Richmond]

[William McKinley]

Just reported. Took place outside of a Ponderosa Steakhouse. Not sure if it is related or not at this time. Police have shut down parts of I-95.

sr, it's useless.

In the land of the blind, a one-eyed man is king...

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Where does the Constitution grant Constitutional rights?

Er. Huh? Nah.

[Howlin]

I'm watching Fox and they are NOT showing stuff like that. Perhaps you should try another channel to get a different viewpoint.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

I thought you'd never show up. : )

[twntaipan]

So, officers proceed with your Constitutions drawn and dare not trample an individual right. Oh, And watch out for the armed sniper while you're there.

[realwoman]

I'm glad........

[DAnconia55]

Can you explain to me why the Founders spent so much time making sure that there was a separation of church and state

Try butter with the foot. It'll make it go down easier...

Such proud ignorance on display.

[hole_n_one]

Carroll Oconnor seemed to have a reasonable approach about him.

[Howlin]

My lord! You're reasonable........LOL.

[southern rock]

It's not the death of America, or even contrary to the Constitution or our unalienable rights.

Yeah, right. Get back to me on that after all of these unconstitutionally detained and searched white van drivers receive their multi-million $$$$$ lawsuits.

[Ligeia]

These people are so out of their league.........

I don't mean to appear defensive, but of course they're out of their league. He said they have one or two gunshot wounds a year. It's a small town that happens to be alongside a major interstate and has gotten swept up in a wider crime and media event. Did you miss the earlier press conference with all the local jurisdictions represented. The general consensus on the thread was that the law enforcement officials handled the situation both professionally and articulately.

Once the islamist assualt gets fully under way -- aside from the beta tests that are currently under way -- only the 2nd Amendment will save the nation. EV is surely wrong.

It is the uncertainty and the irresolution that opens the way for the enemies of the Second Amendment and all of our other rights.

Shut the enemy down quickly and resolutely, and that won't be a problem.

Pussyfooting just plays into the hands of the axis of evil...the Islamists and the Democrats.

Sorry guy, Paine was a Naturalist...

Paine demonstrates the absurdity of a word of God existing in print. As a Deist, Paine believed that the true word of God is nature....

"To understand the nature and quantity of government proper for man, it is necessary to attend to his character. As Nature created him for social life, she fitted him for the station she intended. In all cases she made his natural wants greater than his individual powers. No one man is capable, without the aid of society, of supplying his own wants, and those wants, acting upon every individual, impel the whole of them into society, as naturally as gravitation acts to a centre.

But she has gone further. She has not only forced man into society by a diversity of wants which the reciprocal aid of each other can supply, but she has implanted in him a system of social affections, which, though not necessary to his existence, are essential to his happiness. There is no period in life when this love for society ceases to act. It begins and ends with our being."

[Joe Hadenuf]

I find myself staring at these LEOS back there, hold these news conferences, with utter amazement...... Later

[ApesForEvolution]

lol! He's a she, eh? I just hang out at FR, buying time, until my new BLACK van comes in...:)

[ApesForEvolution]

stop it, you're making me hungry!

[twntaipan]

I agree! Bout all we've agreed on tonight!

[AGreatPer]

Wow, the doctors have left the bullet in him. They said "This will cause complications for matching ghe bullet". No Sh@@.

What on earth would cause a bullet to be left in the patient? I don't understand.

I just grabbed the domain name freeamericans.net.

For now that's the working title of the book, I'll set up a website there with ordering information soon, and I'll also post the chapters there in order as I smooth and proof read them. (Well, not ALL of the chapters.) Hopefully I'll be in print before Christmas.

Now I have to disconnect from the internet and reality, and reconnect to MS Word and my novel, before reality overtakes it and makes it yesterday's news.

[Henk]

Perhaps too close to spinal cord to retrieve at this time.
