    A few questions to Ponder......
    • Why is it when archaeologists find human remains, they always determine that they are either male or female and none of the other hundreds of genders?




    • Why is it that so many are more outraged that Brittney Griner was stuck in Russia than they were about Americans being stranded in Afghanistan?



    • How is it that the government can’t control gasoline prices…but the weather is something they can fix?



    • We’re churning out a generation of poorly educated people with no skill, no ambition, no guidance, and no realistic expectations of what it means to go to work. —Mike Rowe



    • If kids knew what they wanted to be at age eight, the world would be filled with cowboys and princesses. I wanted to be a pirate. Thank goodness nobody took me seriously and scheduled me for eye removal and peg leg surgery. —Bill Maher



    • Why were we told to lower our AC usage on hot days to prevent overwhelming the electric grid while simultaneously being told to trade in our gas cars for electric vehicles?



    • Why is canceling student debt a good idea? Does it make sense to reward people who do not honor their financial commitment by taxing the people who do?



    • Does it make sense to cut off oil from an ally and buy it from an enemy who calls for your death?

    • Are we living in a time where intelligent people are silenced so that stupid people won’t be offended?



    • Is this a great description of America: Andy has left town and Barney is in charge?



    • Why is talking sexually in the workplace considered sexual harassment to adults…but talking about sexuality to children K-3 at school considered education?



    • Who else had a ‘ministry of truth’…Hitler…Goebbels…Stalin?



    • Eliminating the production of 500,000 American barrels of oil a day to buy 500,000 barrels a day from Russia is simply…well…stupid.



    • I saw a movie where only the police and military had guns; it was called Schindler’s List.



    • If your electric car runs out of power on the interstate, do you walk to a charging station to get a bucket of electricity?



    • Why are we running out of money for Social Security and Medicare and not for welfare, illegals, and free college?



    • I just got a full tank of gas for $22. Granted, it was for my lawn mower, but I trying to stay positive.



    • There is a coin shortage. America is officially out of common sense.



    • If an 18-year-old isn’t mature enough to own a firearm, then maybe five year olds aren’t mature enough to change their gender



    • Sign in Texas & Florida: DON’T VOTE FOR WHAT YOU FLED



    • Nobody called it “Toxic Masculinity when we were saving the world.



    • Mice die in mouse traps because they do not understand why the cheese is free. Just like socialism.



    • The most powerful governments on earth can’t stop a virus from spreading…but they say they can change the earth’s temperature if you pay more taxes.



    • Want to stop drunk drivers from killing sober drivers? Ban sober drivers from driving. That’s how gun control and COVID lockdowns work.



    • If you don’t want to stand for the national anthem, perhaps you should give your legs to a veteran who lost his. That way a real man can stand in your place.



    • If socialism is so good and capitalism is so bad…then why aren’t the caravans heading to Venezuela?



    History is not there for us to like or dislike. It is there for us to learn from. And if it offends you, even better…because then you are less likely to repeat it. It is not anyone’s to erase…it belongs to all of us.

    So who are they going to get to buy their houses when they attempt to move? Makes me wonder how many accidental house fires will start happening. Aren't all the renters laughing now....hhmmmm

    I have always thought rape or any other forcible sexual crime should carry the death penalty. Its a problem because we don’t punish it harshly enough.

    That is what I do not get about the liberal mind, it is legal to abort up till birth, but executing a murdering rapist is cruel and unusual punishment? How do you reconcile that logically?

    I do not like any part of that bill. I like that it is being reported, is the bill signed into law yet? They are not the Gov'ts children.

    Idk if it's actually passed into law yet. Was skimming over it last night at work and know it passed one house of state gov.

    Yea it's crazy to even propose a law like that. And sure there's ppl over joyed with it.

    I read some of the law today after reading your original post. There is actually a section where the state can keep your child if you don't do certain medical stuff.

    Yea it's crazy. And a kid runs away from home while trying to transition the state wont return kid to parents they'll stick them in shelter.

    Something needs to change or these generations of kids are gonna be so screwed up. To many parents that want a trans kid for some sort of social status. Makes ya wonder how many of these kids are deciding for themselves or being pushed that way.
