The gun control people will try everything.   Florida senator wants a 3 day waiting period to buy guns and/or ammo, if you haven't completed an anger management class.  You would be required to take an anger management class every 10 years.

The snark in the comments is pretty good:  Should read: Florida bill would require anger management course before reading any more Florida bills

If they have reached adulthood without committing felonies, they likely have minimal control of their anger already. 

Of course, idiot politicians can raise anyone's blood.

Dammit, this just pisses me off!  :mad:  It just makes me wanna go.... buy ammo and shoot something.  [ar15]  Yeah, that's it.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Shoot, and this nonsense is not required for driving during rush hour?

I got to take a anger management class when I was in the Navy. It pissed me off.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I think people who want to run for office should take an intelligence test.

Add some sort of common sense test to that....
