Latest book review"

I started reading "The Harbinger" last week and have not been able to put it down. I have relatively little spare time to read these days, but I find this book quite remarkable. 

Yes, remarkable is the most accurate term I can come up with to describe this work of fiction laced with facts that are almost unbelievable. I'll just say its content is of Biblical proportion. 

Whether you believe it or not, this book is a very good read. If the truth lies in its pages, the future of America will be a repeat of history, 732 BC to be exact. 

Hope you find the time to check it out...

Pray for Boston…

And while you’re at it, write your Congressman and tell him you want our government to ban bombs and make them illegal so this type of violence won’t happen again! It’s time to stand up and create laws that will stop terrorism and violent behavior once and for all! 

EDIT: Please forgive me!!! It’s already illegal to make or possess bombs in this country without proper permits. How could this happen since it’s already illegal? I thought banning certain types of weapons would eliminate these tragedies… 

Pray for these people anyway… and pray our politicians don’t use this "crisis" to continue to remove more of our freedoms.  God bless Boston & God bless America!

School tells 7 year old: Americans Don’t Have The Right To Bear Arms

The father of a Connecticut child is furious after discovering that his son’s school is teaching students that Americans don’t have a Second Amendment right to bear arms. 

“I am appalled,” said Steven Boibeaux, of Bristol. “It sounds to me like they are trying to indoctrinate our kids.” Boibeaux’s son is an eighth grader at Northeast Middle School. 

On Monday his social studies teacher gave students a worksheet titled, ‘The Second Amendment Today.’ “The courts have consistently determined that the Second Amendment does not ensure each individual the right to bear arms,” the worksheet states. 

“The courts have never found a law regulating the private ownership of weapons unconstitutional. The worksheet, published by Instructional Fair, goes on to say that the Second Amendment is not incorporated against the states.  Fox News

Are Wise County Schools Conditioning The Minds Of Your Children?

Why are superintendents purchasing CSCOPE and forcing teachers to sign a gag-order not to reveal the content of CSCOPE? What don’t superintendents want parents to see?

Why are superintendents using text book money to purchase CSCOPE, which, unlike text books has not gone through the state review process?

Parents in Germany didn't think much about what happened in their schools in the 30s and 40s. I hope you don't follow suit! But, if you really care about what your child is being taught, you need to learn what's going on to condition your child's mind.

Following is a form letter that contains all the codes that give you the right to have copies of the CSCOPE Lessons and Worksheets.  Please request these copies and see for yourself what is being used to teach your children.

Dear Superintendent _____________,

In light of recent criticism of the CSCOPE Curriculum, and in keeping with my parental right in accordance with Texas State Education Code 26.006, I am respectfully asking for a copy of the ____________(subject, grade) CSCOPE lessons from September, 2011 to May, 2012.

Thus, this request is made under the Texas Public Information Act, Chapter 552, Texas Government Code. The Open Records Act guarantees a citizen’s access to information in the custody of governmental agencies. Disclosure of this information is in the public interest because providing a copy of the information primarily benefits the general public. I therefore request a waiver of all fees and charges pursuant to Section 552.267 of this Act.

According to Wade Lebay, Texas State CSCOPE Director, as quoted in a recent article by Ann Work (12/2012, Wichita Falls Press) parents may view and have a copy of CSCOPE lessons and materials used in the classroom.

So that I may evaluate the CSCOPE lessons and handouts and have the material evaluated independently by a professional, I respectfully request copies of the material associated with this course.

Sincerely,

Parent will submit their name and address

The post below is almost 2 years old. How I missed that very significant piece of information is rather embarrassing. 

Believe it or not, it is not my intention to stir things up. I support the WCSO and our law enforcement. I believe they do a good job and deserve praise for their care and concern for us. 

I do apologize for any hard feelings the post created and will make a better effort to keep things current.

Pet rescuers not happywith Wise County Sheriff

Wise County Sheriff Bans Photos
Of Animals At Shelter

DECATUR (CBSDFW.COM) – You can visit, you just can’t take photographs to remember it by at the Wise County animal shelter. 

Sheriff David Walker has banned photographs of dogs, cats and any other animals at the facility in a move designed to keep unflattering photos of the animals from making their way onto the Internet.  

“It makes them look like they’re in jail,” Sgt. Asa Mosely said Tuesday. Rescue groups regularly take photos and post them on email lists and Facebook pages in order to find interest in animals beyond county lines. 

But Mosely said some of the photos were leading to complaint calls and unwarranted criticism on social networking sites. The sheriff made the decision, Mosely said, for shelter staff to take all the photos and then encourage groups to repost them if they wanted to. 

That’s an unacceptable option for Melinda Feickert. 

As a liaison for Shelter to Rescue, a group that finds certain breeds inside shelters and gets them to larger rescue groups, she has rescued three to four dogs a day from the shelter before the photo ban. 

Now she said she is lucky to find interest in one a day

I understand the Sheriff's logic. Although, never underestimate the passion of a pet lover in his attempt to save animals.  

This probably won't just blow over since it's great fuel for news media ratings.   

Please, no name calling in your comments here.  Thank you! 

Government protection? Clueless, corrupt or just crazy?

Homeless Can’t Eat Deer Meat

By Todd Starnes 

Hunters across Louisiana are outraged after state health officials ordered a rescue mission to destroy $8,000 worth of deer meat because venison is not allowed to be served in homeless shelters. 

The Dept. of Health and Hospitals ordered the staff at the Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission to throw 1,600 pounds of donated venison in garbage bins – and then ordered then to douse the meat with Clorox – so other animals would not eat the meat. 

“Deer meat is not permitted to be served in a shelter, restaurant or any other public eating establishment in Louisiana,” said a Health Dept. official in an email to Fox News. “While we applaud the good intentions of the hunters who donated this meat, we must protect the people who eat at the Rescue Mission, and we cannot allow a potentially serious health threat to endanger the public.” 

That statement set off a firestorm among hunters and lawmakers who called it outrageous and insulting. 

Henry Martin, executive director of the mission, told Fox News they’ve been serving deer meat for years – from deer chili to deer spaghetti. 

“This was really good meat,” he said. “It’s high in protein and low in cholesterol. It’s very healthy.”

One complaint is all it took for the government to rush in to save the homeless victims. How utterly asinine...and typical.

Color me crazy...dramatic, yet accurate.

Humorous? You make the call!

This morning I lucked out and was able to buy several cases of ammo. 

On the way home I stopped at the gas station and this drop dead gorgeous blond was filling up her car at the next pump. 

She looked at the ammo in the back of my car and said in a very sexy voice, "I'm a big believer in barter, big boy. Would you be interested in a trade of sex for ammo?" 

I thought it over for a few seconds and responded......"Well, just what kind of ammo do you have to trade?"

You might be a liberal dumba$$ if...

I found this quite humorous...

Chicago Chief of PoliceDisgrace to law enforcement…

Chicago’s Chief of Police, who previously blamed ”government-sponsored racism” and Sarah Palin for Chicago’s gun violence, declared that the law-ful exercise of the Second Amendment was a threat to public safety.  

“Garry McCarthy’s understanding of our Constitution barely qualifies him as a meter maid, never mind the chief of the nation’s third largest police department,” commented ISRA Executive Director Richard Pearson.
