Stand your Ground/Conceal Carry Laws

[Lt.Del]

i was just making a point about the funding for NPR.  If it was politically slanted the other way, there is no way the gov't would put one penny towards its operating costs. 
Since we are borrowing so much Chinese money because we have none, i don't know why we are funding a radio network. Well, really I know why but we shouldn't.

Thanks Irish. 
I don't wear my uniform hardly ever anymore, resorted to dress shirt/tie/slacks (in charge of investigations) so my Lieutenant bars aren't showing and many still call me Sarge, they don't bother reading the badge on my belt.  The few times I realize it (i'm not used to it yet myself) I laugh, since I was a sarge for 15 yrs.

Thanks, Chris, for changing my user name!

I am all in favor of NPR losing its government funding as well.  I also don't feel the slightest twinge of guilt never supporting their stations, even though I was chewed out by a hardcore NPR fan for doing so. 

Plus I always figured the true government radio was Voice of America.  A bit extraneous if you ask me to have NPR and VOA.  Let NPR stand on its own merits and earn its living like any other radio station I say.

I love doing that!  better than watching grass grow, no doubt!
