Liberal mindset for a New Year

Today is New Years Eve, time to do some soul searching about the past and what the future may hold. Many of us 'rag' on the far left because they are easy to make fun of, they do not use any logic much of the time but I have been doing some thinking and maybe some of those liberal ideas are not so bad after all, I mean maybe it is time to try something new.

I remember back in the 60's and through the 80's there was a huge increase in teenage pregnancy and sexual transmitted diseases. This was a serious problem, people's lives were being ruined and kids were dying from Aids and such so the liberals came up with Sex Education. The idea was "kids were going to do it anyway so teach them to be safe" The schools started to teach about sex and how to use condoms and use birth control, all this got me to thinking...........
Today we have a rash of shootings, kids are dying and lives are being ruined and lets face it you can't have a policy of "Just Say No" so lets have Gun Education in the schools, lets teach kids how to handle a firearm and how destructive they can be if mishandled and how to be responsible gun owners and handlers. If teachers weren't comfortable teaching this they could employ retired police and military persons to help out, some may even volunteer their time.
The more I think about it I like it, Maybe liberal ideas aren't all bad.

    1. Old NFO, it might in a private school (and may somewhere) but not in a government school, you are correct. Thanks.

  3. Back in the 60's and 70's it was rather common to see rifles and shotguns in school. In 1966 I took my new 410 to school for show and tell. Including a box of shells. We didn't have school shootings back then. I think the reason we have them now is because if little Johnny won't sit still, we medicate him into submission. They have no idea what the long term effects of a lot of these medications. They do know that they can cause suicidal and homicidal thoughts.

    1. Robert, Stephen and I were talking about that just the other day, how times change, even most parents are squeamish about things like that now. Thanks.

  4. Here's another great liberal idea we should endorse: the Supreme Court decided this year that it was legal for the government to force us to buy something, in this case health care....

    Shouldn't we now be forced to all buy guns like the Swiss are? Using the governments own FBI statistics we know that increased gun ownership drives down violent crime.

    1. Matt, it would work...I can even picture a poor person using their government debit card to purchase a AR15 or maybe the government issuing 5.56 ammo out like government cheese was. Thanks.
