I would like to make a point here. As sophisticated as some would like to think the world is, it is still a jungle out there. Unlike the movies, the nice guy does not get the girl, and ride off into the Sunset.
America has been at war for one reason or another since we began. Our founding documents have been a public statement od what we are striving to do. But, we have serious enemies out there that want to bring us down. Perhaps from jealously, or perhaps for some mistake that we have made.
I think it is unfair to attack the government or the military for trying to protect America. It appears to me that those citizens who attack the country, are the very people enjoying the benefits of a country soldiers died to protect. I am looking at the liberal whiners here.
There is no way the founding fathers could have predicted terrorism like 9/11 or the Boston Marathon bombings. Remember the Second Amendment was written when single bullet muskets were in use, not weapons with automatic clips and 30 rounds.
The gun owners are going to have to take a solution to the problem seriously, otherwise people like me are simply going to vote to take guns away. You made yur bed. Sandy Hook was real! As we as a nation make the effort to reconcile our law, technology, and political attitudes while important problems remain unresolved.
As an independent voter, I may not know what the solution is here, but the best decisions need to be made based upon the information and experience we currently have, not party ideology.
As to the border, I am more interested in keeping terrorists out than anything else. I would like to see the drug cartels crushed. And, I would like to see pot legal for the relief taxpayers seek. Migrant workers, corporations, and big labor worked out a plan satisfactory to them all months ago. I would hate to see that fail.
The Federal Government is concerned that 1/3 of our population suffers from obesity, (which just got classified as a disease last week). Fresh fruits and vegetables are part of the obesity solution. Those prices are high enough without causing them to go up.
All this political bickering needs to be turned into problem solving. If we solve a problem incorrectly, we can change it. I throw up my hands in disgust.
