OK, on guns. I have guns. I like guns. I have no fear that the government will be taking them away. The 2nd Amendment is in tact. A little story here: I have a friend whose cousin and husband were shot and killed in front of their 9 year old child. They were killed by a man who had been released from prison and had LEGALLY bought a gun without a background check. By the way, he had been in prison for murder with a gun he had also bought LEGALLY without a background check. This is ALL that is being asked. Background checks. NOT getting rid of the 2nd Amendment.
However, the people who are posting this crap are really wanting all the weapons they can have to arm themselves against the current administration. HUH??? I can’t wait to see what they will be saying when a Republican is in the White House. Not a peep came from them when Bush took more rights away from us than ANY President, and starting imprisoning people without cause. Just because they MIGHT be associated with someone who might know someone whose relative might know someone who might be Saudi Arabian. (OK, OK, so I exaggerate a little, but just a little.)
The above is the type of nonsense I was trying to avoid by starting a different Facebook page. I only invited people who, may have different political views, life styles, but I respected. We need different views. We need to share information. I was just hoping not to have to be rolling my eyes every day as I opened Facebook. I believe to ignore and do nothing is to condone, so on my old page I kept attempting to add reason to this type of ridiculous narrow minded befuddled thinking. I got really tired of asking people to actually listen to the facts as they are presented by DIFFERENT sources rather than running amuck after watching FOX. Believing anything that strengthened their hate for this administration, true or not true. Exaggerated and fear mongering. . . .
But, alas, it does no good to attempt to have people who have not ventured outside their little nest to learn anything beyond their preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual thinking. There is no compromise. There is no discussion. Just their "opinion". Not facts. Just opinion. Very sad. I realized I was just wasting my time. They actually WANTED to believe the worst, so any pig in a poke would do. Twisted little pigs in twisted little pokes keeping their panties in twisted little knots.
