START BEING A STRAIGHT SHOOTER

Increasing the information and intensity of background checks for gun purchases won't work to catch criminals who get their guns from theft or on the black market.  Such a move will also not work unless the issuing authorities pay attention to what the background checks reveal.  That being said, I don't oppose better background checks, but everyone needs to know that they undoubtedly will not make any difference in gun crimes. 

The answer is not in background checks or in controlling the number of rounds in a magazine.  Putting more armed intervention in schools, churches and other "no gun zones" will be an effective stop-gap measure, but until we bother to identify and address the root causes of gun violence, (which nobody has yet bothered to do), we're missing the target.  

Thousands of dead fish have washed up on a shore of Lake Michigan.  Could it be Joe Biden's fault?  Has he been standing out on his front perch with  his 12 gauge shotgun again?  Just sayin'...

Well, Trump has endorsed Romney for Utah's Senate seat.  He who gets into bed with snakes is likely to get bit.

Enjoy your tax relief while you can; the Democrats are determined to take back Congress in November and jack your taxes back up... right after they impeach Trump for not having colluded with the Russians.

North Korean athletes participating in the Olympics are fearful that, should they fail to win a medal, they will be sent to concentration camps or shot.

Could it be that Russians are fueling the media anti-gun frenzy?  Well, you know how nobody in the media these days is a straight shooter...

Why are the Dems and the media so dead-set against teachers and other school staff members getting trained to carry concealed weapons on campuses?  Do they really want unarmed and unprotected students to be sitting ducks for terrorists and lunatics?  Maybe they plan to sell tickets to mass shootings in order  to raise funds for their 2018 election runs? 

I have no idea if it is true or not, but I did hear that a recent survey has determined that, percentage-wise, Democrats use more Preparation H than any other segment of American society.  

Speaking of Preparation H, the Mayor Pro-Tem of Dallas wants the NRA to move its annual conventi0n, scheduled for May.  A typically short-sighted Democrat, he doesn't understand that no thug or terrorist in his right mind is going to try and commit some atrocious act in a city full of gun carrying sharp shooters.  And, when was the last time one of these mass shooters happened to be a member of the NRA anyway?
