Indeed. That is Patou.

Take her aside, put your arm around her shoulders, and say: "Honey, do what you love. We'll support you in whatever you do."

And having obtained a sober verdict, the murderer is executed in a timely fashion. I'm surprised that no one has suggested this. I guess that makes me the only bloodthirsty SOB among the Ricochetti!

I live on 40 acres with a 300 foot driveway. With my Glock 19 I have an effective range of 25 feet. With an AR-15 that's increased tenfold (with appropriate training, of course.) California prisons are falling over themselves to release non-violent felons. Need I say more?

Yes.

While I agree with this, it leaves unanswered this question: Why don't the anti-gun see the pro-gun as in need of gentle persuasion, rather than the hatred that seems to be the usual approach? Shouldn't society take responsibility for the situations that require us, the nasty and brutish pro-gun, to behave the way we do?

Here's an analysis that connects 9/11/2001, Afganistan and Bengazi that strikes me a very persuasive. http://frontpagemag.com/2012/dgreenfield/why-our-forces-were-told-to-stand-down-in-benghazi/

You did well, RJ. Only, nest time bring a cheap cigar for Hugh.

I'd be interested to know of what value/interest this was to the Ricochet management (I use the term loosely, to avoid insulting the guilty.)

A complete waste of money. An obviously generic survey, And Dave Carter? I love the guy, but to pick the least-frequent podcast is beyond foolish.

Sheesh.  The contract between a man and a woman has been called "marriage" for millennia. If the state wants to encourage that for some reason, then fine, although I would prefer it didn't.

As to the SSM crowd, there are two possibilities IMHO. Either they want the economic advantages conferred on conventional married couples, or they want to swipe the word "marriage". In the first case, fine. There's a procedure for that. In the latter, SSM may be something, but its not "marriage".

As to social value, Zafar, the use of the term suggests to me that you're a collectivist. You're welcome here, but you won't find many friends.

Mickey, you would have been a better senator than Barbara Boxer, but not that much better.
