Sign pretty much proves the point. What’s God have to do with it?

A height requirement would have an adverse impact on female agents and, would, therefore be discriminatory. This is where we are: form over substance and dam the consequences. And least someone think the Almighty favors DJT over little children, think again. He loves us all equally. The NYT is full of $hit. The SS and local police didn’t do their jobs Saturday just as the authorities in Uvalde didn’t do theirs. Misfortune and tragedy in this world are due to negligence when bad people take advantage of that weakness. Bad things happen to good people and that’s a hard pill to swallow.

As a reminder this is a discussion group for double barrel shotguns. I wish people would leave their pathetic opinions and questions to their therapist and leave the rest of us out of it. Or at least comment when they are sober and prior to the meds wearing off.

If somebody wants to believe God saved Donald Trump from being executed, more power to them. I’ve noticed, casually, that .223 bullets don’t behave in necessarily predictable ways after they strike an object, any object, and in my gut I’m just really glad that one zigged instead of zagged when it clipped The Donald’s ear.

God did it? As good an explanation as anything scientific that I can come up with.

Everybody needs something to believe in.

Best,
Ted

Not to mention that parocial schools are more likely to involve parents interested in their child's outcome, and kids that grow up to have nonjimmy values.

Nothing at all wrong with a parochial school education, just don't take tax dollars away from public education to fund it.


Firearms imports, consignments

Edited after reading down posts. Affirmative Action hiring of "teachers" has basically destroyed our public schools. They've been dumbed-down to a certain racial-driven outcome, especially in the Southeastern US, but surely inner-cities of our major metropolis's may be the worst. Subpar teachers=subpar students, and it's been epidemic for decades. The NEA is horribly corrupt in propping up the system.

Lyndon Johnson's War On Poverty destroyed the black nuclear family, and the resulting offspring received very little of life's tools needed to learn a quality education. Ebonics comes to mind. Our entire public education system is in shambles save pockets scattered around that do well in spite. No racist intent, but they're almost all in predominantly white populated towns and small cities. The steady decline of our basic cultural values and abandoning of Christian/Godly principles has led to this. No prayer in schools.

Dismantle the Dept of Education, the worst of all the bureaucracies in our govt.

Really, is that how it works? We have charter schools in Wisconsin . The school fund spends less per child sending them to private schools therefore we save money on every child plus they get a better education. A win win

Actually, if public education would/could deliver on it's promise, there would be "nothing wrong" with it. But, it has been many decades since that was true, and the test scores clearly document that.

No country pays more for public education, and gets less to show for it.

Feel free to prove me wrong.


Best,
Ted
