Glockophobia

A Glock handgun

"Only criminals, dictators and Democrats fear armed citizens" -- Mostly Cajun blog

A gun is not just an equalizing weapon between physically weaker persons and ones who would do them harm ... but an armed citizenry also keeps its government from oppressing its people. Those who pooh-pooh this latter possibility are ironically usually the same ones who claim that Trump wants to become a despot. Such thwarting of possible tyranny was the genius of our founding fathers when they penned our Second Amendment ... a right only subservient to that of freedom of speech in the FirstAmendment to our prescient Constitution.

This freedom understanding is built into the DNA of most Americans and those trying to annul this right need to rethink their Glockophobia.

Yet Another Liberal Inconsistency

In another trip around the barn, Democrats are now advocating that gun sales need to be constrained because 2/3rds of some 43,000 U.S. suicides per year are accomplished with a firearm (including AK-47's?) However, as I seem to remember, lefties for decades have been advocating doctor-assisted suicides ... in fact they have gotten laws passed to this end in Washington state, California, Vermont and Oregon. Is this yet another liberal inconsistency? Pshaw!

Perhaps if we could get doctors to bring a gun and sterile bullets to the would-be life taker's room ... and helped clean up afterwards?

If I Won the Powerball

When  I was a youngster I dreamt of having a million dollars. Today this amount is but a piffle ... if you don't have at least a billion, you are a nobody. So this Wednesday's Powerball drawing has given me a chance to upgrade my dream ... and go for being a billionaire. If I'm so lucky on Wednesday, the issue then would become ... how to spend all this dough? Let me suggest some interesting ways:

- Set up the Potts Foundation to combat global warming ... fund it with 500 million dollars

- Get some new wheels ... perhaps a Rolls

- Like many of the Silicon-Valley billionaires, spend money to live forever

- Hire Jim Cramer to manage my money

- I might emulate Rupert Murdoch ... get divorced and marry a young chippie ... see: Daily Mail Article

- Buy a 200 foot yacht and park it off of St. Barts for the winter

- Buy a gun for every registered Republican voter who doesn't already own one

- Provide full-ride college funding for all my grandchildren

- I might even purchase a sports team
