Penguin Thoughts


I like this gun.
I've shot a similar one in a controlled environment and I had a kick doing it.
It is my American right to be able to that and I have no problem with anyone else that feels like doing the same thing as long they do not have a criminal past.

Howie Kendrick of the Dodgers is a gun enthusiast and he shows off his love for them on his Instagram account which is his right. He has received major flack for doing it and my question is why? This is the United States of America and we have the right to bear arms and have freedom of speech but since we now live in a world that wants to take away rights and not enforce laws he is taking heat for it. What a hypocritical world we live in.

The left aka Democrats aka Liberals are the majority now and they are in power to push their agenda which involves being tolerant. Transgender, gay marriage, abortion, etc. That is fine as they have that right but why do they or other people insist on wanting their beliefs respected but at the same time condemn someone else's if they don't agree with it? Where is the logic in that?

I may not agree with most Liberal agendas but I do agree/support some that would not be considered conservative. I believe in the right to abortion (not to be confused with it being used as birth control). I believe in types of global warming helping measures (not the extreme ones). At the same time I believe in smaller government, less taxes which are definitely not thier thinking. While I don't agree with them I respect their right to have that belief and support they continue to have that right even though I will vote against them and I expect them to respect my right to have my beliefs.

I am tired of beliefs being forced on me and I am told to accept them but if I have one ala gun control I am told that I am being insensitive. Remember people kill people not guns. Yes we need to redo our laws and get a handle on how people get their hands on guns. I am 100% behind that but I am also in support of me walking into a store putting down my hard earned money and purchasing a gun for protection and gun ranges and expecting no flack from my elected government.

While you might not agree with any or all of my thoughts here I would like you to respect that I have the right to have them as I support your right to agree or not to agree with them,

Once again, just my 2 cents.

Thank you for reading and have a blessed day.
