Capitol Police officers left their service weapons in
bathrooms and other spots across the Capitol complex three times this
year. In one instance, a child visiting the Capitol reportedly found a
loaded Glock. Glocks are the weapons used by Capitol Police and have no
safeties on them, so the child could have shot himself.
COMMENTS:
This scenario reminds me of a hotel security guard at the
Aladdin Hotel in 1976. He was in the men’s
room in a stall and dropped his pants; as his pants hit the floor, his gun went
off, sending a round of .45 caliber ammo through the stall wall; the guy
sitting in that stall ended up standing in the casino with his pants still
down, holding a newspaper and shaking like a leaf. But, this is no laughing matter. Guns are dangerous weapons and those of us
who have them respect them for the damage they can do. Those three officers should be suspended without
pay until they complete a new gun safety course.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Jeb Bush is agreeing with Obama that illegal immigrants
should be allowed to stay in this country.
What’s your reaction? (Wanda ~
San Bernardino, CA)
A. The flawed argument is that it would be somehow “unfair” or inhumane
to send them back. In other words, our
immigration policies go out the window if you can manage to sneak across the
border. If you’re going to cave in to
this argument, you have to be willing to lift the immigration procedures for
everyone who’s been standing in line for several years trying to get into the
country the legal way. The strength of
our country has always been in fairness and in being law-abiding; this maneuver
is patently unfair and unlawful.
Q. Tens of thousands of students are “opting out” of Common
Core tests and I hear that the Education Secretary is going to force them to
take the tests whether they want to or not.
What happened to “opt out” and what can he do? (Brenda ~ Roseburg, OR)
A. Secretary Arne Duncan is threatening federal intervention;
evidently, the Department of Education has its own SWAT team now. I do hear that they’ve been buying shotguns. Look
for him to withhold federal education money for local schools and to refuse to
recognize graduation diplomas. The “opt
out” rule does not apply when the Obama feds want their way, even if war supposedly a free country.
Q. That Black Panthers have declared war on America. What do you think they will do next? (Darla ~ Van Nuys, CA)
A. Now, that is an ominous threat, isn’t it? It requires an immediate, proactive response
from our illustrious president, but that is not going to happen. I look for some really bad-time gang activity
this summer. This country is in dire straits from a national security
standpoint, and Obama is solely to blame.
