I moved to central CO about 5 yrs ago. We have a Walmart, Subway, stoplights, cellphones, internet, etc. We also have bears. I've seen a bear on my deck every year since I moved here. One year, twice within 12 hrs. Last year, a big 'un wasn't jes cruzin' fer burgers. He somehow detected unopened dry dog food in one of our sheds. Figured out how to get in. Next night, I locked the door. Bear tore the entire lock/clasp off the door and ate 2nd bag of dog food. Third night passed uneventfully. Fourth night, after I put a 2x12 across door with 10" spikes, the bear returned. Tore the top half of the door completely off, above the 2x12, like it was tissue paper. Called DOW, who caught the bear and put it down (2nd capture). Two ppl were killed by black bears within 10 miles of my home, last Summer. Now, if I find I must go outdoors after dark, like to walk the 150 ft to the dumpster to empty some trash, I have a powerful headband light and a .44 magnum pistol with Garrett bear loads in my shooting hand. A bear is not likely to wait for a call to 911. Neither am I. nb Good idea. Any mountain lions in the area :-\ I've seen bear damage at a cabin in Alaska. Food is stored off site (not in the living quarters) as they will tear any door off for food. We saw one licking burnt salmon off a hot grill. Yummy fish.. New York bears just dine at the dump. |

That's why the federal law was passed; to prevent nuisance lawsuits. Or emotionally-involved juries. Or rogue judges. Well yes, technically you are allowed to sue at the drop of a hat. And there is a need for more responsibility at the early process for the courts to decide if the suit is a nuisance suit and award damages, and possibly even punitive damages to the defendant in such suits. That would eliminate a great deal of the ambulance-chasing that is occurring. It would also have an immediate effect of reducing business costs across the board. --- Begin quote FINDINGS: (7) The liability actions commenced or contemplated by the Federal Government, States, municipalities, and private interest groups and others are based on theories without foundation in hundreds of years of the common law and jurisprudence of the United States and do not represent a bona fide expansion of the common law.

I'd like to see the stats for the rates per 100k people that are either killed-on-scene or treated in hospitals for ANY injury caused by a weapon, and see how those numbers break down when the weapon is a firearm vs anything else (knife, 2x4, bow-and-arrow, etc). IOW, you don't know what you're talking about. At least you admit it, HomoGuy. Death stats are not necessarily illustrative of the net-harm caused to a society because of guns, given increasingly sophisticated and effective medical treatment. Clueless. How about the 2.5M defensive uses of firearms EACH YEAR. That shows their net good. The congresswoman from Arizona is forever going to live with the effects of almost being killed by a gunshot to the brain. That she survived does not take away from the utter lack of any redeeming value that guns impart to US society. A gun did not pull the trigger. |

I would greatly prefer to be nominated for saying that out elected reps are
doing a fine job, in a frugal manner, and in strict compliance with the Constitution. However, the reverse is closer to reality. My guess, is that we're close to the second American Revolution. I surely hope not. I prefer that our great nation can smooth out the differences, through the election process. The first armed revolution was a great loss of life, and many fine people were killed. I'd sure prefer those fine people of my generation will work together, and bring freedom and prosperity back. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "G.

Like Copala. LOL...... Ask a taxi driver to take you into "real Mexico". You will be given a lesson by the driver as to why that's a bad idea. Actually, I guess you missed the humor. When we are in those places, we either take our hosts vehicles, or rent a car and driver for the day. We do have enough sense not to go to the barrios, nor any dangerous areas. We do not do drugs, so don't get into that scene, either. So far, we have had no problems. Our hosts in Mexico are expats and real Mexicans of status who look out for us. I know bad things can happen to good people, and with Mexico's last ten years, even the officials in the Catholic church are not safe. But still, we do have a few spots left that we feel safe in, and enjoy visiting. Steve |

Koreans and the Iranians. Chinese. Russians. "We" fear no nation. "We" might fear the condemnation by other nations when engaged in a military operation. It has economic implications that are undesirable sometimes. The taxpayers have bought enough munitions to handle any threat on our own soil, plus fight two other major fronts simultaneously. In a "Democracy", people don't like their voluntary defense forces fighting a protracted war with no end-game/goal. It's not 'fear', but pressure from ordinary citizens that force a withdraw from conflicts. The problem is that to the low-level idiots who think only at the level of bullies, it doesn't matter what other reasons you have Either you are kicking ass or you are being kicked harry seems to operate at that intellectual level. |

I prefer that our great nation can smooth out the differences, through the election process. The first armed revolution was a great loss of life, and many fine people were killed. I'd sure prefer those fine people of my generation will work together, and bring freedom and prosperity back. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus *www.lds.org . "G.

If it can be fixed at all. You need a Russian style revolution. Hang the capitalists/banksters from lamposts. |

Because I know of NO documentary evidence from the Framers where they declare that the Constitution should expire every 20-30 years. On the contrary, from their writings, we can infer that they wanted the Constitution to be a solid LONG-TERM Frame to build a government for the people. |
