U.S. is beacon of hope
Our great nation is in uncertain times. Our men and women are fighting in distant countries, the cost of living keeps rising and jobs are scarce. In spite of this turmoil, we still have the right to vote, own land, practice free speech and bear arms.

What Bingo Bob is really after
It is my opinion that Bingo Bob Riley is not after the slot machines, but rather the forfeiture of the cash in the machines.

Un-American to harass the sick
Harassing the sick and dying is an un-American activity. It is overkill and morally bankrupt to arrest nonviolent people for making a safer health choice, cannabis or marijuana, compared to other medicinal/social drugs.

I'm neither a Republican or Democrat; if anything, I'm a constitutionalist. I do not believe in political parties, just follow the Constitution. Both parties are leading us towards a socialist state, the Democrats at 100 mph and the Republicans at 90 mph, but the destination is the same following their present paths.
