Alice, Again

If Lewis Carroll were alive today, his head would explode.  Mr. Carroll penned Through the Looking-Glass, a sequel to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.  This creative story centered on Alice who discovers she can pass through a mirror thereby entering an alternative world.  What is up was down, what was white is black, what was right is left.

Not so long ago, we all entered Alice’s world when killing babies became acceptable.  This sordid thinking allows partially-born babies – otherwise known as “fetuses” – to be left to die without medical attention.  Such words are twisted semantics known as ‘Constitutional protections’ called abortion.

Although I am having a tough time finding the actual word “abortion” in The Constitution, thousands of pro-choice supporters recently marched on Washington, D.C. to demonstrate their undying approval of the 40-year old Supreme Court decision that protects the killers of their babies - themselves.

Ironically, the nation is in a state of hand-wringing over the possession and use of semi-automatic firearms whose specific right to “keep and bear” is mentioned in that previously mentioned Constitution.

Words such as “common sense” and “saving lives” are often heard when the anti’s are carping about the simply written Second Amendment.  Quite odd, indeed.  But, things get even odder when newly introduced legislations promise to turn millions of legal, responsible gun owners into felons, with the stroke of a pen.

Semi-automatic firearms have been in existence for over 100-years now.  Today, though, they are now uber-dangerous because some hoplophobes deem these tools ‘unacceptable.’  Oh, that pesky Second Amendment.  Have you already forgotten about that annoying fetus mentioned above?

Such misguided paths to “a safer society” are hollow, at best, when such noise emanates from big-city mayors whose populations are dying at record rates even though their own jurisdictions have super-restrictive laws against gun ownership.

Now, we learn that joy abounds in Illinois where illegal immigrants are now able to legally drive.  If those words are examined, they reveal something astounding – these are the same folks who broke into our country, thereby earning the title “illegal.” 

The crazy part is that these same law-breakers do not have to provide their fingerprints lest we offend them into not registering to drive.  WHAT???

Unfortunately, the dreadful excuses we have as political representatives are forging ahead with their pandering to those law-breakers.  Legal citizenry be damned!

In case you do not wear a seatbelt when driving, you can expect to be pulled over by the police.  It seems as though people forgot when those political imbeciles told us that seatbelt use was optional and would never, never ever be subject to a traffic stop.  Simply put, they lied.  After all, it was to protect us because they know me better than I do.

This is the time you need to take a break from reading and look out your front window.  Each person on a bicycle should be wearing a helmet – by law in 21 states.  Clearly the reason for this law that wasn’t able to protect all prior generations is to ensure Americans won’t get hurt.  Go on and peer out your window.

In the event no motorcyclists rode by on your glance to the outdoor world, 28 states have no helmet laws.  It is plain to see that motorcycles are far safer than cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs, that require seatbelt use.

To recap, killing babies is okay, self-defense is bad, breaking the law is fine, bicycle safety is strict, motorcycles are safer than cars, and we let this, legal citizens will go to prison for exercising their rights, illegal citizens are rewarded for their bad behavior.

Welcome, Alice.
