Re: Edited: easier to buy guns than vegetables?

It was a big nothing sandwich for me, but not to everybody in Texas already paranoid of government including the Governor that feels the need to keep an eye on them just to make sure they aren't planning an overthrow.

Re: Ferguson

I'm not easily insulted. If I only talked to people who weren't screwed up I wouldn't have any friends. I have yet to meet a perfect person without issues. We all have egos and think we are always right about everything. We lose each other here when we start insulting each other's intelligence. Ther...

Re: ISIS

I would be embarrassed if I was them too. One cop with a pistol takes out two guys with assault rifles in 15 seconds. I'm going out on the limb and saying the cop had a little more training than the wanna be terrorists.

It's possible employees wouldn't value equities sufficiently due to a lack of liquidity. But I like the idea. I th...
