‘That’s Impossible’: The Stunning Cause of Woman’s Unexplainable Back Pain

June 6, 2013 at 1:59pm

I read the first 30 or so posts before my eyes glazed over. I’m a 30-year RN; yes, both vasectomies and tubal ligations fail. Yes, exercise-especially running– befuddles menses. Yes, one can be pregnant and not know it in more than one “body type”. All these are possible. If the mother and father are both happy, that’s enough for me. If there are questions, I’d leave it to them to work out. There are much bigger problems than the blessing of one child; I can think of over a dozen dead SEAL Team 6 members off the top of my head.

Several News Outlets Reject Invitation to Off-the-Record Meetings With Eric Holder

May 30, 2013 at 2:28pm

For those news agencies that agree to the meeting, may I recommend that you do unto Holder that which he has done unto you? You agreed, by implication or agreement, too keep your info to yourself. He lied to Congress. Follow his lead… report what you learned. What’s he gonna do– sic a Federal judge after you? Not in this climate.
Gun Owners in Illinois One Step Closer to Major Victory

In reply to GrandpaOf4.

56-year IL resident here… I despise the FOID law, but live with it as there are good reasons for me to stay in IL, for now anyway. I am, and have been, opposed to ANY type of “permit” regarding firearms since I heard that sudden “pop” as hy cranium exited my rectum at age 23, having read Atlas Shrugged. All that said, I will endeavor to live within Constitutionally appropriate laws; those that have been properly voted on, even if I disagree with them. I will, though, continue to attempt to redress my grievances as is discussed in the Bill of Rights. We all know that what we express in comment sections such as this is reviewed by folks from our squeaky-clean DOJ, don’t we? As well, that they can and have accessed all manner of electronic communications, right? Have I made myself clear?
Report: Hofstra Student Was Shot, Killed by Cop Trying To Rescue Her

May 19, 2013 at 2:39pm

As usual, I haven’t time, energy or inclination to read the various diatribes. My thoughts and prayers are with the family, and with the officer as well. Could things have turned out better? Certainly. Will he be sued, as well as the PD and city that employ him? Very likely; it’s axiomatic that “every bullet has a lawyer attached to it”. He will have the pain of having taken an innocent life compounded by the civil suits and the pariah mentality. The largest portion of blame is on the thug, and those who, in their infinite wisdom, let him back among the free people. May God rest her soul, and give solace to the officer. I’ll let Him decide how to deal with the true killer.
Report: Obama Administration Apologizes for Another National Security Leak

“Ooops! I put the fate of yur nation at risk…. my bad.” No, that won’t make things all better. I’m sure Jay Carney will be put forth to spin another tale.
Singer’s Mother Reveals Last Minute Decision Not to Abort Her Famous Daughter

May 9, 2013 at 4:01pm

In reply to The-Right-Rider.

Agreed! I am male; as such am “supposed to” have no voice on the subject, according to the pro-abortion bunch (I decline to refer to them as ‘pro-choice’). The whole mask of “women’s health issues”, “personal choice” and other such euphemisms cross the male/female boundary: life is life. To end the life of an innocent for the convenience of the mother is abomination. Yes, I include rape and incest– why punish the child for the actions of the father? The only area I could be a bit open to is the life of the mother IF there are 2-3 doctors who agree that the unborn receive the death penalty to save the life of the mother who already has the responsibility of other children. No reason to leave them motherless. Otherwise there is an arbitrary decision of placing the value of one life over another, one of which has no voice. Needless to say, this is not a popular opinion, but there it is. Oh, I should say that I am the father of 3, we had one late-term miscarriage, and I was in a previous relationship that ended when my intended aborted our child. She was afraid, and acted on impulse; there is no grudge, but profound sadness. I still believe I will meet this child one day.
Dallas Cops Take an Hour to Respond to Armed Robbery — and Wait Until You Hear the Reason Why

May 8, 2013 at 1:59pm

I haven’t time to read all the comments, as I am somewhat short on time; that said, “What difference, at this point in time, does it make?!?!” to quote Madame Clinton. The police have no duty to respond to any call. That’s why YOU are your own First Responder– YOU are the person who suffers the immediate consequences, therefor you are responsible. This man did the right thing… after using his weapon he called to report the incident. Anything after that falls on the heads of the PD.
Decorated Vet Who Was Arrested After ‘Rudely Displaying’ His Rifle on Hike With Teen Son Gets a HUGE Shock at the NRA Convention

May 4, 2013 at 1:59pm

I’ve notice several references to either Beck or the gunowner as being anti-police. I’ve listened to and watched Beck’s programs, and have not picked up that impression; rather, that there may have been a different way to handle the situation, one that did not end up with this whole fiasco. Where is the harm in asking such questions, posing such ideas? Is it the “opposing views must be forced into compliance” thing that we ask others to avoid? Is that not in itself hypocritical? As to the man having a vid-cam: I’d say that half of the folks I run into at any range or outdoor activity have one, either to record the actions of their kids to show others, or to record themselves for review of techniques in order to do better in training at another time. I record about half of my training to spot areas of weakness, be it in the draw, presentation, follow-through, etc. Don’t be too quick to judge; there’s plenty of that on the dark side.
