Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours. -- MaxedOutMama

I don't just want gun rights... I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance....I want the whole bloody thing. -- Kim du Toit

The most glaring example of the cognitive dissonance on the left is the concept that human beings are inherently good, yet at the same time cannot be trusted with any kind of weapon, unless the magic fairy dust of government authority gets sprinkled upon them.-- Moshe Ben-David

The cult of the left believes that it is engaged in a great apocalyptic battle with corporations and industrialists for the ownership of the unthinking masses. Its acolytes see themselves as the individuals who have been "liberated" to think for themselves. They make choices. You however are just a member of the unthinking masses. You are not really a person, but only respond to the agendas of your corporate overlords. If you eat too much, it's because corporations make you eat. If you kill, it's because corporations encourage you to buy guns. You are not an individual. You are a social problem. -- Sultan Knish

All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war. -- Billy Beck

Thanksgiving

Considering the fact that I'm upright and still breathing, I have a lot of thanks to give.  I thank all of the people at Mayo who took care of me. I thank my family for supporting and caring for me.  I thank the company I still work for.  And I thank all of you out there who prayed, wished me well, and even donated to the GoFundMe my daughter ran - that was pretty damned humbling, y'all. 

But most of all, I thank my wife for taking care of me throughout the last 23 years - and the last year especially. 

So this Thanksgiving think about all the gifts you have every day - a family to care for and care for you, a roof over your head, food on your table, a job to go to, and - especially - your health.  If you have these things, you are rich indeed.

And a further bit of advice:
