I try to stay as far from politics as I can. I do have an opinion on the whole "Middle East problem". Pull all our guys and girls out, civilian, military, and diplomatic. Have absolutely nothing to do with them. Let them work their own problems out. They've been fighting each other since before Jesus was born. We're (US) not going to help them. All we're doing is pissing them off, and getting people killed. We have enough oil in the southern states and up here in Alaska to run the country, if we didn't ship it all to China. There's also nothing wrong with tactical nukes, they do a damn fine job of making a point. There has to be consequences for terrorist acts, so far there really hasn't been any. Sure we've killed some of the bad guys, but new one's just take their place. We need to do something that makes them sit back and thing, maybe this isn't such a good idea. All we're doing now is giving them new targets.

Our court system has also become a joke, just look at the "news" for the last month. Why is some rich bimbo on the news because she got a freaking DUI? Throw the ***** in jail and be done with it. The whole world is going to hell in a hand basket.

.308 to the back of the head doesn't cost that much. The just do it wrong. I'm not saying kill them all, but when you have confesses killers, or lots of witnesses...
