“The 2nd amendment should always be at the forefront of our thoughts,’ the Georgia governor said in signing a bill that allows guns to be packed most anywhere in the great Dixie State.
Hail yeah cause we need guns in churches, courthouses, airports, restaurants and bars (and everywhere our cold beer is served), and classrooms, and well, just everwhere, by Gawd.
You just never know when you might have to shoot dead some CRAZY SUMBITCH who RICHLY deserves to be shot to Hell where CRAZY people be-lONG.
I mean, think about all the shootin’s you’ve had, or you’ve survived, right there in your own church (you do go to church, don’t you????), your favorite restaurant or bar, your kid’s classroom, your courthouse, or at the airport.
Really, what we REALLy need is a law requiring ALL Americans who aren’t CRAZY to own guns and to have guns on their persons at all times* to regain this country’s safety and security.
God bless Amerca!**

*The only exception other than crazy people being African Americans, Spanish types, Muslims and Kenyan-born foreigners, who absolutely should not be allowed to pack guns and are not recognized as Real Americans in Dixie anyway, are they????
**But God please mostly bless gun-secured Dixieland!
Well, you just pegged it. We’re reverting to our Wild West days when disputes were settled with handguns and blood.
Unfortunately, we’ve never really left the Wild West days in many respects. Gun violence has been endemic in some areas for decades. In other areas, it’s rare, but politicians play it up as part of pandering for votes. The first area will continue to be ignored because those folks don’t have much in the way of money or political clout; the second area will be catered to, because they have a lot of both.
True, Boll man, although, what truly astounded me was that the Guv signed it in spite of massive opposition from law enforcement, most churches and many people who can foresee the violence that it almost guarantees to come; but you did mention “pandering,” didn’t you; always look forward to your blawg postings cause it’s always genuinely interesting to peeps like me who love history and human interest stories.
Much obliged, Rev. One of the reasons I left journalism was because I wanted to write about so much more than the narrow beats I was assigned to allowed me. Also, I was never a big fan of editors messing with my copy – much like nearly every other reporter I ever met.
