Subject to a mandatory tax when produced, new purchases require federal paperwork and background check (though some used transfers do not), about a thousand laws on sizing/shapes/accessories, laws on storage and handling, not all models are legal in all states, people are agitating to make oversized versions a felony, etc etc
...and making forward grips on the short models illegal...

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

You know, I decided that I would at least go to their site and see what in particular they were campaigning for.

15 minutes in, and I still have no idea what their specific goals are.  I did find some guiding principals, but they were very vague and non-specific - just the basic tenants of any civil disobedience activity following in Gandhi's footsteps.

What do these protesters actually want?

They want to wake up tomorrow and read that Hillary is really the President of the U.S.

They seem surprised that they weren't allowed to enter a foreign country in order to protest.

“And that was it, they didn’t give a lot of justification.”

Yeah.... because justification is needed to keep protesters out.

They just want to be heard and be sure the country knows what they are feeling.

If you have a woman in your life who supported The Womens March just tell her you understand how she feels (assuming you do) and if appropriate, hug her.

Trying to have a philosophical or policy discussion about this demonstration will be doomed to failure.

Those discussions need to take place under different circumstances.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Agreed.  Any worthwhile topics (like equal pay for equal work) get lost among the dancing vajajays.

Free tampons?  You have got to be kidding me.

Can you imagine what gov't provided free tampons would be like?

In thy presence is fulness of joy.
At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.

I figured it would be similar to toilet paper found in public restrooms (non absorbent sandpaper) vs. the good stuff you buy for home (absorbent and soft).

Which is why, should the government ever offer free ladies products, I will pass and just keep buying the nice stuff.

The nice stuff is reserved for high-ranking Party members, and their prostitutes, which are the best in the world.
