UConn James Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 You can't privatize the USPS. It's an absolutely essential element of our national security. not anymore due to modern encryption etc... In fact the only thing keeping it viable anymore, is the restrictions placed on smaller packages and letters through the privately held postal companies like UPS and Fed Ex not exactly... It reads.... and says nothing about a bloated and inefficient postal service Who do you think is going to deliver medical necessaries person to person in the case of a N/B/C attack? My father is a rural carrier and it's in the training guide stuff that he will be among the first wave group getting preventative care like potassium iodide or what have you, and that he CANNOT transfer this care to anyone. It very much IS a matter of national security to be able to reach everyone in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Cain Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Kevin Costner proved just how bogus postal servicemen are. I am armed & ready for the event that leads to a world based on survival of the fittest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABills Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 And in another failed gun law attempt. How did a convicted felon out on parole get these weapons? Enforce the laws we have and then maybe consider what doesn't work and fix that. But to come up with new laws is STUPID. BTW, I am not sure about all districts in VA, but I have some friends that are firemen and they usually do have a couple folks in each fire station that carry for these types of events.

Gary M Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 What's a letter? A B C D E ...... Enforce the laws we have and then maybe consider what doesn't work and fix that. But to come up with new laws is STUPID. Better yet hang murders. No repeat offenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what doesn't work? Having 50 states with 50 different gun laws. Weapons cross borders into varying jurisdictions easily and silently. Scrap all the laws and come up with one plan.

Bigfatbillsfan Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 No tap water to hookup a garden hose to! Can I throw 48 bottles of Aquafina @ the fire? A well regulated private fire department could work. I wouldn't be in favor of it. I think we should keep them they way they are now. I hate hearing storries about fire departments letting a house burn because the the homeowner didn't pay their premium. I'm just saying it could work.

Many good volunteer services out there too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaska Darin Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Scrap all the laws and come up with one plan. Constitution, schmonstitution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Constitution, schmonstitution. I didn't say scrap the constitution. One is still entitled to bear arms according to the 2nd. Where does it say in the USC that every state can't get on board with the same plan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant all the laws outside of the USC and of course the 2nd. So true. The 2nd is so mimimally worded... How would 50 states ever get on board w/the same plan. Some will always seize an opening and try to make a buck from the weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 http://mcfw.com/?p=1283 You can go to the bottom for live audio of the calls from firefighters and to police on the dispatch radio. I have a great respect for firefighters, many family members of mine are still active and many now exempt within the county of Monroe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Cain Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Firemen shouldn't be allowed to unionize. Their bloated pensions are costing us so much. Here's the great union shame: a policeman, fire fighter, or teacher works for 30 years in NY, then they retire to Florida and take their bloated pension to stimulate the Florida economy. If anything they must be forced to stay in NY to receive their bloated union benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say screw the pensions and make them all do 401k's (after we get through the Obama years where a 401k is really a 202k). No more guarantees for any public service employees including all politicians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABills Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I'd also advocate elimination of the communist interstate highway system & give this back to the states. I have no problem with that. they are doing quite a bit in the DC area with private roads. Dulles tollroad, Express lanes, and intercounty connector. Of course the government signs the deal and then publicly bitches for year when these companies raise toll rates, and of course the poor people have to use the "regular lanes" and it isn't fair. Oh those rich people in the lexus lanes get everything. Well folks you can't have private industry build a road and not expect them to make a profit, so shut the !@#$ up.
