Obama set to go after my guns.

July 9 is … National Sugar Cookie Day

Mary K. is my sugar cookie everyday!

It was just a matter of time before President Obama came after guns and gun owners, legal guns and legal gun owners. He told the Dept. of Justice not to pursue a gun running criminal enterprise in Mexico but he is going to tell them to come to my home town to make sure I am doing it legally. They will investigate and surveil without probable cause or even reasonable suspicion.

Half a year after the shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), the Obama administration is set to release a series of reforms to the current gun law, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said on Thursday. It is too bad she was shot or anyone is shot but I did not do it. Do not play on sympathy to violate my Constitutional Rights. Catch and execute the killers; that will stop the madness. Liberals argue, without any supporting facts or studies, that the death penalty does not deter crime. How do we know? We have not used the death penalty in this country with routine regularity in over sixty years. During that time period, crime and especially violent crime has sky rocketed. It is not working the liberals way. It is time to change to the conservative approach to see if it works. I can guarantee executing a killer reduces the chance of this person committing another murder 100%.

The reforms, which are being crafted by the Department of Justice, come after a series of meetings with relevant stakeholders in the Second Amendment debate. But in a nod to the difficulties of getting legislation through a Republican-run House of Representatives, only executive orders or administrative actions -- and not an actual bill -- are expected to be handed to Congress.

Administration officials were coy on the specifics, now there is a new concept, from the reforms the Department of Justice would recommend or when it would actually make those recommendations. "The president directed the Attorney General to form working groups with key stakeholders to identify common sense measures that would improve American safety and security while fully respecting Second Amendment rights," Carney said at Thursday's briefing. "That process is well underway at the Department of Justice with stakeholders on all sides working through these complex issues and we expect to have more specific announcements in the near future."

Just how near? Carney would only say "not far in the future." Another administration official said weeks would be an appropriate measurement. When the recommendations do come, it will represent the most comprehensive move on the gun control front from this administration to date. The president has largely punted on the issue since entering the White House, save issuing carefully worded reactions to Supreme Court rulings on local gun laws or bans.

More evidence the guys in the right, the people trying to do Washington refuses to do, are getting punished. A collection should be started to raise the money for Joe Arpairo.

 The office of an Arizona sheriff known for his efforts against undocumented immigrants has settled a claim with two men and will pay $200,000 in a racial profiling case. The claim arose from one of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's (ar-PY'-oh) worksite enforcement raids.

Deputies raided a landscaping company in search of identity-theft and fraud suspects Feb. 11, 2009. They stopped Julian and Julio Mora's pickup truck outside the business. A federal judge later determined the deputies had no reason to stop the men or detain them for nearly three hours. Attorneys for the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona tell The Arizona Republic the settlement should send a message to police agencies that engage in discriminatory practices.

Sheriff's office attorney Tim Casey says officials couldn't identify the deputies who made the stop, which made it impossible to defend the merits of the stop.

Let’s do some sewing today, OK, class? Who invented the sewing machine? Elias Howe, you say? Well, we were all taught that Elias Howe was the clever inventor; but that’s not exactly correct. Elias Howe only patented the lock stitch sewing machine. The device had already been invented by one Walter Hunt. Walter was a really nice guy. He didn’t patent his invention because he didn’t want to put the many seamstresses of the time out of work. Elias didn’t care about such social issues. So he went ahead and patented the sewing machine.

Mr. Howe, however, ran into a lot of legal entanglements trying to get his patent rights because of those who tried to infringe on them, such as Isaac Singer. Maybe you know the name. In the long run, Elias Howe won; earning over two million dollars in royalties for his non-invention.

The question is, if Elias Howe hadn’t been born on this day in 1819, what would we be sewing with?


Just a couple of thoughts I had.

  "All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstacy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was." - Ernest Hemingway
