I don't recall the 2nd amendment requiring a person be sane to own a gun.. You must hate the constitution.. Commie pig.
Who are you to decide who's "crazy" and take their gun away? Someone who's threatening you or others with a gun as you threaten people with guns because it's "your job"? I guess your gun is no good if someone else has one too, eh? Everyone knows all cops with guns don't have mental issues and an uncanny ability to diagnose insanity. Matter of fact, there's never been even one cop in the history of the United States with mental issues..

Just ask TJ.. :rolleyes:

Perhaps I need to take your gun away..

Maybe not the 2nd amendment but and amendment to the amendment states nobody that has mental health issues or is a convicted felon lose their 2nd amendment rights.

You're so silly. No. I don't determine when someone is crazy or not. I have on occasion been able to talk a gun away from people who are either threatening to shoot themselves or another person. It's up to a doctor and a judge to decide if someone has a mental disease.
Just trying to keep people alive.

By the way. My gun is plenty good even if someone else has one. I have no problem with people having legally possessed guns.

Jump to conclusions much?

Good luck with that... Try taking a bunch of paranoid schizo's guns away.. hahahaha

So you think people just want guns cause they're afraid someone will tell them they can't have guns, or else?

Makes no sense to me.. Why the sudden surge then? If they wanted em, they would already have them..

I think the reason is twofold. They are afraid their right will be taken away and crime is on the rise. Criminals will always get guns illegally anyways, so why shouldn't a good citizen be able to protect themselves. Where I currently reside (and I pray that isn't for long) you hear of home invasions on a daily basis on the news now.

I just got home from the hospital in the town where I live here.. I'll be doing clinicals there this week and next.. Apparently Fairview just let every single LPN in their whole system go.. W.T.F.?
Just down to the RN's.. which is what I'll be when I'm done, but still.. No LPN's? That's insane.. RN's gotta take over all that stuff now.. Our hospitals pretty small but Fairview is huge.. The U of M.. Fairview South.. bunch of other huge hospitals in the cities.. All of em.. No LPN's.. Unreal..

Not sure if it's just MN but I doubt it.. I think Fairview is nationwide.. not sure though. Anyone know?

Saw one lady there who looked pretty **** sad.. Worked as an LPN like 38 years.. :(

Must be Obami's fault.. Just ask Rush... Better hurry though, he aint gonna have a head for long..

That's scarey. My son's paternal grandmother is a nurse and has worked at her hospital for 19 years. She says recently they have cut back and she has had to use vacation time to get her reg 40 hours. They flex everybody down quite a bit. I hadn't heard of the lpn loss, but it doesn't really surprise me. The motto nowadays is more for less it seems.

First off, appearantly you're a moron. Remember what I do for a living. I have taken guns from crazy people. I've entered many a situation where I've had someone that was "crazy" that had a gun, had to deal with them and take it away from them.'

It is scarey.. LPN's are needed.. Nurses can't do all that stuff alone.. I get one patient in clinicals and it's tough.. Working RN's get 5 or 6..

I think a lot of sick people are not going in who should... most likely cause of money.. It is ridiculous expensive. Lots of jobs gone everywhere. :(

Let an infection go.. get sepsis.. die.

I just see this whole thing as exposing Congress for the freakin' dog and pony show that it is.

Congress passes regulation that FORCES banks to loosen up their restrictions on loans.

They have government backed agencies Freddy and Fannie that promise to take these high risk loans because Congress will have to take on the losses.

The losses drive these companies into the ground, taking with them, AIG that insures the loans and nearly every other financial institution that invested in this house of cards, mortgage market.

Congress then passes a bill that gives $700 billion to one person, the Secretary of Treasury, to do with it as he sees fit, not asking for any regulation or explanation.

Now Congress is holding hearings investigating why the Secretary of Treasury is doing whatever he wants with the money and not telling them what he's doing and asking why there isn't any regulation over the spending of the money, even though they didn't write any into the bill they passed.

Maybe if Congress had spent more time READING the bill, and less time filling it up with PORK, like $300 million a year to ACORN, $70 million to the childrens wooden arrow industry or over $100 million to Pelosi's friends and family who own the companies on US Samoa in the tuna industry, they wouldn't have to wonder why there isn't any oversight and regulation happening.

HEY CONGRESS, IT'S BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T BOTHER TO ASK FOR ANY OVERSIGHT AND REGULAION!

MORONS.

Seems like they only needed half of the 700 billion and want to let the Obama administration decide what to do with the other half. I say

GIVE IT BACK!!

If the targeted bailees have been bailed out, the spending should stop. Just because money is appropriated, doesn't mean that it has to be spent. :mad:

Dow closes under 8,000 at 7,997.28 for the first time in five years. Trading was "somewhat" heavy.

Big Three automakers asking for money from Congress. They didn't seem to have a plan but just wanted to suckle at the teat of the American taxpayer. The interesting part of this begging is that each of the three CEO's flew to DC on their own private corporate jets at a cost of almost $20K instead of buying a commercial air ticket.

Saw some jackass on CNBC awhile back claiming razing unsold houses is the answer for the housing market.. What a dipsh t.. Saw some guy was selling his so called $1,000,000 home for $50 and another is tossing in a new Lexus if someone buys his house..

Apparently our fear filled leaders think we can print, spend, and borrow our way to riches.. by giving it to crooks who already stole billions of dollars for 15 - 20 years so they can continue.. Now they're crying cause the banks still wont lend money..

So.. what'da all think is the answer to this "economic crisis"? More of the same sh t aint gonna work.. Things should be getting better as time rolls on.. not worse. Working awfully hard to destroy ourselves. Real fukking smart..

Anyone care about kids futures anymore, or just themselves?
