  • Example. Break into my house and kill my dog. I come to your house and beat you up. I wouldn’t immediately offer to fix the table and chair I broke in the fight for you. I would beat your butt and leave serves you right and you wont do it again or I will come back and break your other table and chair over your head. If your smart you learn your lesson. If your not you get taught another. Works well and doesn’t last very long. This is a a crude example but resonates well to explain the principal.
    Over ten years of war there. Countless billions spent that a large substantial of which was stolen by criminals in power. Millions of Tax payer dollars that were spent on good intentions leave the country in brief cases and duffle bags owned by Afghan Officials that were meant for reconstruction, payroll of Afghan Security Forces or just general contracts to build facilities or provide services. You can not imagine how much money is wasted paying Some Afghan owned Company to do something as simple as pick up garbage or build a shed that the contractor jumps ship to Dubia. Karzai has his own thugs shake folks down at checkpoints all over Kabul for money and who knows what else and he has the gumption to accuse American Soldiers of Harassment. I’ve seen it. We should require the Afghan Government to pay 3 million dollars to the family of every U.S Serviceman killed in action in Afghanistan. I bet the fighting would end real quick, or just let our boys off the leash.

  • Karzai is a thug. He is an expert at playing any and every side. Afghanistan is gearing up for upheaval after we leave and the Taliban will step back in no problem. He has purchased plenty of U.S property with embezzled funds and has plenty of places to go to. As soon as the last U.S soldier leaves he will be on a flight to Dubia and the states. This finger pointing at U.S soldiers is a survivor ploy. A company I worked for as a PMC was contracted to eradicate poppy fields. Well only certain fields would be destroyed and others left pristine. Then it was shut down overnight as we were just using U.S taxpayer money to eliminate competition for Karzais brother who was assassinated not to long ago. Karzai deemed eradicating the heroine trade would drastically hurt the Afghan Economy. Look it up its well known and on Wikipedia. The Afghan Army and Police allow a it’s personnel to be awol for 90 days before taking corrective action. The Majority of those organizations disappears around poppy harvest time which lasts about 80 days. Humm wonder why.
    You also have over 35 different countries responsible for training Afgan Security Forces with no standardization of training responsible for training Afghan Security Forces. No wonder Things don’t work right. We should stop Nation Building for countries we invade because they did something bad and instead blast them and tell them do it again we will really destroy you.Waste of Time Resources Lives, and Money.

    While I respect and appreciate your rite to say the things that you say. Please tell me on what and by what authority do you have the rite to impress your vision upon others. Most certainly you will cite that Christianity is forced upon you etc. I do not see government mandates requiring you to pray or go to church. Living in a Free Nation where you have a rite to speech, to be your own person, and make your own decisions is what thats about. You may respectfully abstain from unhealthy foods and have the option for it. If you go to a burger joint you get a burger because thats why you went there. Forcing other citizens with the same rights and freedoms through the government that is charged first and foremost with protecting those rites is a direct violation of the tenets and principles that provide for you to say and do what you do. Would it be rite to then to force you into practicing a religion because a study says it’s better for you. Regardless of what the religion? You may be tired of someone’s fat kid & not approve of their decisions. You may get tired of what someone says or does. Those same people may have the same opinion of you. So in closing in this free nation you also have a rite to choose not to do those things. That is your rite. It is not your rite or the government’s to force others whether through tax, mandate, or ticket. When a study shows that someone’s fat kid being fat is a danger to the nation then you may have a case but i doubt it

  • I say let them have it. Quickest way to end all this is give our brothers and sisters what they want. As Soon as they can’t afford Starbucks coffee, or the power is out and they can’t charge their I Phones the quicker we can move and say, “See I told you but you just had to do it.” Some folks may counter by saying that’s exactly what they want. I will counter and say funny things about plans is they always seem great when you think of them. Then they tend to backfire in your face when people can’t put milk or bread on the table. Everybody Liberal or Conservative has to eat. Do Something that affects dinner and you will get eaten alive.

  • The Focus on the POTUS is a distraction from the real problem. Who cares what some suit thinks. It’s politics and TV. Get involved or the government will find a way to un-involve you in the process which is what some want & that is not what America is about. I don’t care what O’s worst or best day was. I care about what my rights are and I darn well am not going to let some touchy feel good speech by a certified and diploma’ed liar (lawer) make my decision for me. So in closing expend your breath and keystrokes on something that is feasible, acceptable and, plausible. Obummer and all Hail comments are just a waste of space and air. Go talk to your neighbor, School Board, Congressman, or city council. most City Council Meetings have about 8 people average watching. That’s how crap like permits for lemonade stands get passed etc. Sorry for the rant but really folks read some of the things you say.
    This message was approved by an American for Americans. Boom there goes the Dynamite.

  • How about this. Deputize A select few of the Teachers who are willing to go through the certification process. Either through the County or through the Town PD. We were given local government for a reason. Lets see them try that on for size. Conceal Carry is only for Private Citizens. The States and Municipalities may think of creating a special Arrest Authority for those Teachers to give them powers only in a select for areas to avoid complications. I see a lot of talk and nonsense from both sides. Real Solutions that make sense are what we need to be suggesting. Over the top Civil war or Uber Socialist/Communist recomendations don’t go anywhere. We were given the tools by our founders so lets use them. they are right in front of us everywhere. We are a gun culture. We have bill boards and government funded programs for DUI. Where are the billboards for the 4 rules of fire arms safety, Education and awareness is what we should be doing. Embrace it whether you own one or not. I have 2 kids 4 and 7 yrs old. I make a living educating and training military, police, and civillians in the use of fire arms. Guns are not a mystery in my home. My kids know that if they want to see or handle my guns ask daddy. I show them the safe and right way. Never had a problem. Fed gun control is not the answer. You me and everyone needs to get involved in educating ourselves and others in safe practices with or around Firearms.
