Nice to See How Polite You Are

I enjoy watching YouTube videos by tourists visiting America.  A number have commented that they just expected to see guns everywhere. People carrying guns on any street.  They are startled at never seeing guns.

Apparently, the Left's New Claim is That the NRA Created the Indiviodual Rights Claim About the Second Amendment in the 1960s

 From Sen. Howard's speech explaining the 14th Amendment:

Such is the character of the privileges and immunities spoken of in the section of the fourth article of the Constitution. To these privileges and immunities, whatever they may be—for they are not and cannot be fully defined in their entire extent and precise nature—to these should be added the personal rights guaranteed and secured by the first eight amendments of the Constitution; such as the freedom of speech and of the press; the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the Government for a redress of grievances; a right appertaining to each and all of the people; the right to keep and to bear arms; the right to be exempted from the quartering of soldiers in a house without consent of the owner; the right to be exempt from unreasonable searches and seizures, and from any search or seizure except by virtue of a warrant issued upon a formal oath or affidavit; the right of an accused person to be informed of the nature of the accusation against him, and his right to be tried by an impartial jury of the vicinage; and also the right to be secure against excessive bail and against cruel and unusual punishments. . . .

It Is a Good Thing New York Made Its Subways Gun Free

3/6/24 Fox News:
"New York Gov. Hochul calls in National Guard, state police to help curb crime in NYC subways"

Gee, could you just allow victims to shoot back?

Moving Forward

We had pointed to several important mechanical issues (e.g. minor gas leak in furnace room) and minor cosmetic issues (e.g. chip in master bathroom finish).  As I explained, I am buying a palace for my queen: it better be beautiful.  The builder agreed on all items we listed.

I expect to move in late March.  A Californian is flying in specifically to see our current house tomorrow.  This is good news.

Meltz!  In Boise.  Best of all:
"As entrepreneurs, our desire is to build a Christian-based company."

What a friend we have in Cheeses, all our sins to Camebert.
