Absolve the Guilty

Those who blame guns for gun-crime are giving a pass to the people who commit terrible acts. I have never seen a gun stand up and shoot anyone. It takes a person to do that.

Punish the Righteous

Why would you reward the wicked by punishing the righteous? If some criminal or mental case goes off and murders innocent people, why would you want to strip the law-abiding of the means to defend themselves? "Gun-control" is absolutely illogical and opens the door to tyranny.

We Cause Hurricanes?

Some folks are suggesting man has caused hurricanes. If we could cause hurricanes, then presumably we could stop hurricanes. Mankind can not stop hurricanes. It is hubris to suggest we can manipulate the weather or climate.

The Winner's Symphony

In sport, victory is wonderful, but consistency of winning is the goal. How many teams are good one year and then fade into oblivion? The Chicago Bears looked like world beaters in 1986, but that team never managed another championship. The New England Patriots never looked as dominant as those Bears, but have won multiple titles and established themselves as the greatest ever pro football team.

The Loser's Serenade

Football at the University of Tennessee always used to contend for conference and even national titles. Today the Vols look like they should join the OVC where they would at least stand a chance of winning some games. My home state team is going to be pulverized in the SEC. Maybe, they should switch to NAIA. They would be guaranteed a winning season there.

Lawless Departing Mayor

My hometown of Nashville, Tennessee is about to replace our arch-leftist mayor with a slightly less leftist who will still raise our taxes. David Briley is still trying to suck up to illegal aliens. Perhaps, Briley does not know these interlopers are not allowed to vote (or worse, Briley may know these criminal aliens are actually voting). Briley's opponent, from the liberal Cooper family, is no conservative and certainly no Republican. Briley is demanding Metro government ignore Federal immigration law. Briley is favoring foreign lawbreakers over native Nashvillians. We do not need to give special rights to sneak-overs, We need to be protected from them.

Category Five Monster

Hurricane Dorian has now strengthened into the most powerful and potentially deadly Category Five. This is no event to minimize. If you are in the path of this killer, evacuate! You may well suffer economic loss, but all that can be replaced. Your life can not be. Listen to authorities. If you stay when they say "flee", you may well be forfeiting your life.
