A Pediatrician's View on Gun Violence and Children

The Eddy Eagle program at the NRA is a valuable way to address this issue, notice how it was not even mentioned?! They really are not interested in a reasonable solution, they want more gun control. The myriad current law do little, but they really want more. OK, they really want gun confiscation.

I was fired from my internship for writing a proposal for a more flexible dress code

She, and some of the other interns, wanted to decide the dress code, so they prepared a petition. The employer wanted serious workers. There was a conflict. The resolution was to fire the petitioners.

Understanding the consequences for actions is a sign of maturity. These children were oblivious. The lesson they learned was likely the most valuable thing they could have learned in an internship. The second most important thing was learning that their education left them bereft of even the most mundane job skills.

Instapundit » Blog Archive » PROFILES IN GYNO-SUPREMACY: No wonder men are going on strike….

. . . feel free to get your bearings, it is nothing like the 19th century which you just came from. Time travelers need to take time to adjust. During this time it is best not to tweet, or make any pronouncements, they will make you look foolish.

Opps, my bad, I'm too late!

Per the golden rule, sweet pea, I intend to treat you just as you treat me. For you must be treating others, that would be me, just as you wish to be treated. I expect women to stop killing their children, and raping the students they are tasked to teach. These are both epidemic. By simply looking at how many mothers kill their children perhaps we can all hope that mothers will finally follow fathers in their competent treatment of their children, especially boys.
