2. Finally had to unfriend my nephew
Wed Jan 16, 2013, 01:23 PM
Jan 2013

Close to unfriending my cousin (husband's cousin, actually).

It's sad, but I can't take these sick f***s any more.

Any yes, it is relevant to this thread.

Holding back on slashing them with replies on FB, I've posted "demandaplan.org" and "facebook/sandyhookpromise" in response.

By the way: I had sent my Congressman (repub) a comment to support gun control. His response to me was the usual pablum.

I WROTE BACK! Just as my Pres said! I held my Congressman's feet to the fire on this - he is former law enforcement; I challenged him as to why someone who knows better, former cop, would think it's OK to have assault weapons on our streets!

Thanks you, Sir, indeed.

THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT!!! [View all] FourScore Jan 2013 OP
