Every educated person should understand basic supply and demand. If someone is in the business of laking laws that the rest of us must adhere to, they should ABSOLUTELY have a basic understanding of supply and demand. Sadly, economic ignorance is widespread among both the public and lawmakers.

It’s sad that some one so “uneducated” could be elected.

There are people out there who we describe as anti-gun who may not want to take away your guns. They might want to make it virtually impossible for you to buy any more, sell yours, or leave them to your kids, but they don’t actually want to take them away from you.

Interesting that NO ONE knew who sought the protective order.
I predict that police, or others, who seek to enforce such orders will come out on the losing end.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? . . .” — Alexander Solzhenitsyn

You have to hand it to James O’Keefe and his group of undercover journalists: Time and again they have caught Left-wing Democrats red-handed doing immoral, improper, and often illegal things. And now it’s Robert “Beto” O’Rourke ’s turn or, at least, some of his campaign staffers .
*** begin quote ***
The pair appears to be using “pre-paid credit cards” and therefore it would, according to an attorney with Project Veritas who viewed the footage, be likely the pair violated Federal Election Commission rules.

Anyone surprised?

CROSS POSTED FROM JASPER JOTTINGS
PRAYERSREQUESTED: Mom of Sweeney, Peter K. (MC1964) passes
2018-Nov-10
Jaspers Jotting will be very “thin” this week.
Dorothy Sweeney, Mother of Peter K. (MC1964), and my beloved Aunt, passed away this week.
She was my “Momma Diddy” who took care of me while my single Mom went to work after my Father abandoned her.
Recently, my fiancée has had full custody of her grandson since his release from the hospital in June 2017 after being weaned off narcotics at birth.
This little boy, Daniel, has taught me what it means to care for a baby. And especially someone else’s baby.
Her passing drove home what Momma Diddy, and my other maiden Aunt Patty, did for me and my Mom.
It’s another death in my life that makes me sad from All Souls Day to Saint Patrick’s Day, during which it seems all the significant people in my life passed on.
Makes me root for March 17th to come quickly.
The only bright light was that I met my Classmate Deacon Keith Casey (MC1968) who led the prayers at the wake and assisted at the Funeral Mass.
So with my apologies, because of this, my ongoing chores with Baby Daniel, and my new responsibilities as “bar manager” at American Legion Post #401 148 Major Road Monmouth Junction NJ 08810, I haven’t had time to “do” Jasper Jottings correctly.

Zebra stands for Zero Evidence but Really Adamant. Zebras are people who see things in black and white. They are sure of their own opinions and they disdain information or science which undermines their beliefs.

Nobody at Georgetown Prep expects special pity in light of these experiences. Indeed, the problem is that almost any institution could be broadly caricatured in the underhanded way we have.

On Monday, Senator Elizabeth Warren released the results of a DNA test confirming what everyone already knew: The “vast majority” of her genetic makeup is European, but she may have a Native American ancestor in her distant past. That makes her, as Barack Obama once said in a different context, a “typical white person.”
