    Family Stone

    I enjoyed most of this movie. It was a bit of a guilty pleasure. I did enjoy the treatment that was given to the 'deaf brother' character. He was shown as intelligent and 'fully functional' in society. His family was shown as an example of how a deaf person's family SHOULD behave. They...

    Anyone own a gun?

    It depends on where you live. No permit is required to buy either long guns or handguns in most states. There are several who deprive their citizens of their constitutional rights. A permit is required to carry a concealed handgun. Don't kid yourself. The video is real. Exhibition...

    Anyone own a gun?

    This technology won't work. Bullets deform and are almost destroyed after being fired. A number would never survive. Besides. Do you really want the government to get into the business of tracking the MILLIONS of bullets that are bought in this country each year? Just look at Canada...

    1 day in jail for next 10 years... for death of boy

    I'm hip. Personally, I believe that drunk/stoned driving fatalities should be CAPITAL offenses. Start sending these folks to death row and see if folks think twice about driving drunk/stoned. That kid got the death penalty for her neglegence. Let her share his fate. Drunk/stoned driving...

    Do you hate your brother or sister?

    I don't hate my younger, and only, sister. She is dismissive, distant, and self-righteous. We don't speak. We will no longer be spending holidays together with my parents. This was my decision. I'm tired of the games. If she has something to say, she Emails my wife. She says that she...

    What was the most saddest movie you have seen and did it make you cry?

    "An Imitation of Life" It's an old one, but man what a film. Yes. I cried like a school girl. brianb

    Grandmother Shoots Intruder took the law into her own hands

    Glad to be of service. Texas is actually a great place to live. Just because we're willing to 'shoot someone' in the right situation doesn't mean we want to. The paperwork and legalities for even the cleanest shoot are a real pain. The post traumatic stress can be a real drag too...

    Grandmother Shoots Intruder took the law into her own hands

    Because we want to understand your views and help you understand ours. Debating topics with only marginal emotional content is boring. You've been polite and pleasant to debate Liebling. It's been fun. brianb

    Grandmother Shoots Intruder took the law into her own hands

    I'm not familiar with 'gas guns'. How can you and your friends have an opinion on something that you have no experience with? In truth, very few teenagers are killed in America every year by accidental shootings. The vast majority of teens killed are from gang violence. Gun laws don't...

    Grandmother Shoots Intruder took the law into her own hands

    Same here. Trust me. I don't go looking for trouble. I hope I NEVER have to use my sidearm in self defense. I'd much rather my weapon be fired at pieces of paper at the range than at another human. It doesn't mean that I won't. It means that it is my hope and prayer that I'm never put into...

    Grandmother Shoots Intruder took the law into her own hands

    I'll gladly answer any questions you have. I'm interested in giving an accurate portrayal of how we live here. I have no particular axe to grind. What does it matter why the former employee came back and threatened to harm his former boss and co-workers. NOTHING justifies this kind of...
