If it costs money to go to a private school the parent should have to pay for that not tax money That's my opinion
I'm right there "with you" on THAT!

You would think with ears that large they hear pretty darn good wouldn't you say. 👊😂👍
That thought was also in my mind, as I was just posting that most recent "comment"!... Hell, we KNOW that DOGS can hear things, that "we" can't!

I got to thinking about this, just now; and SEEM TO RECALL reading an article in the National Geographic, decades ago; about elephants being capable of producing & hearing sounds that humans cannot hear. THAT might be an alternative to "drifting and floating SPIRITS"!!!

Just recently an Elephant crushed a lady in India. Then during her funeral it came and did it again
I believe I read something about that, on this "Forum"... Perhaps she had "been mean to" the critter...

(I went and "forced myself" to "Google Up" the song: "Roll With It, Baby" by Steve Winwood... If you ain't heard it; you might like it.)
Thanks, Gordon; I can TASTE the salt!!

How about taking paddling a kid out of school. If I got paddled at school I got a whipping at home 😳 I don't believe I ever got one that I didn't earn 🤔
Yeah, you right, Whitey!! I got my few occasions to be on the "bent-over end" of that paddle!! When I moved out to the East Coast, beginning in 9th grade, they didn't "believe in" Corporal Punishment!!! (And ya SEE how THAT works out for 'em!!!!!)

A fact of life learned early on will help her excel in what she eventually chooses to do.

You are right. Thanks for the reminder. I was also proficient with rifle and shotgun at 13-14, got my 1st deer and many doves that yr. We were tought safty. Something else has changed in this country, we did not even think about shooting up a school or church. Something has radicalized people to do these things. Something is playing to our basest thoughts and feelings.
Yes, SOMETHING has DEFINITELY "changed" in this country!!! (¿Anywhere near the time, that they forebade "Prayers in the Public Schools"?)
I've got no right, to try and force "My Way" on anybody, but; I have been and intend to continue praying that GOD Bless America, that HE Bless "all those in positions of Power &/or who are in positions of Authority"... All of our "First Responders" and each Member of our "Armed Forces", no matter what branch. (I also ask HIM to "Bless our Enemies" (as instructed in the Gospel according to Matthew, in Ch.5:44-45!)
Thanks for posting that, OJD... ¿¡More "proof" of "Things Unseen"!?
Convicted Felons have been forbidden to possess a firearm, for decades. A young man or woman can join the military (or be Drafted) at age 18... I, personally, took a "Firearms Safely" sort of a "course", up in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; way back, in the early 1970's... This allowed me to "possess and use" my firearms, WITHOUT "adult supervision"; and I believe that I was only 14 years old, at the time. ... I'm thinking that "safety courses" +/or "History Courses" of sorts, OUGHT TO BE a requirement, for ANYBODY to even TOUCH a firearm, in my opinion... I've seen too much careless and dangerous behavior, while out shooting with other people.
I am, however; AGAINST any kind of a "forced gun registration" program, anywhere in the United States. There's already a wheelbarrow full of "Gun Laws" on the books... "They" need to ENFORCE them
¡Happy Birthday, U.S. Army!

Did you read the bill or just jump on someone else's bandwagon. What is in this "Monster" bill.
If that many republicans are interested you might want to take a look.
No, I haven't read the bill... BUT; there was a guy on the radio, last night; saying that this so-called "Red F**g Bill" (or, some part of a "broader bill") boils down to: ANYONE who maybe just wants to "make life hard for you"; would be in a position to "make a claim" (to a Judge) that YOU are"NOT fit, to possess a firearm"; who would create a warrant; then Law Enforcement would (in theory) be "charged with" removing all firearms from your possession; no trial, no hearing, no warning; before hand.
They said that it might take YEARS and THOUSANDS of dollars, to get your own private property returned to you. After "jumping through all manner of firey HOOPS"... So... It bears researching, but, they are (supposedly) "working at" getting it "rammed through"; is my understanding of what "our fearless leaders" are involving themselves in, right now.
