Masked Rifle-wielding Gunman in Germany? Impossible!

So a masked, rifle-wielding gunman took hostages today at a movie theater in Germany. I must have missed something. Doesn't Germany have very strict gun control? Or is that "common sense" gun control? Apparently another bad guy didn't get the memo.

Also find it curious CNN didn't provide any details about the gunman who was killed by police other than to parrot German authorities who say they don't believe it was terror related.
I'm sure we will find out shortly that it was another one of those right-wing, Republican American, Southern Rednecks, who cling to their Bibles and guns just like the Orlando and San Bernardino murderers, right?

Which is Better: Trump Wealth or Clinton Wealth?

Hillary criticizes Trump for getting rich while providing jobs for poor people in developing countries; Trump criticizes Hillary for becoming wealthy by providing aid to poor people in developing countries while taking a cut of course and taking $250,000 an hour speaking fees from Goldman Sachs and other Wall St firms all the while railing against Wall St greed. According to Hillary that's the going rate so it's okay. Which argument speaks to you says a lot about your sense of right and wrong.

Hillary Defies; Redefines the Peter Principle

Most are at least somewhat familiar with the Peter Principle which was described by Dr. Laurence J. Peter in his 1968 book "The Peter Principle" and is usually quoted as something like, an employee will rise or get promoted to his or her level of incompetence. 

From her first job as a staffer on the House Judiciary committee investigating Watergate to her tenure as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton has managed to defy the Peter Principle every step of the way. It's more than that however. She has actually managed to redefine the Peter Principle. Despite the fact that she is incompetent and is seen, even by her supporters, as dishonest, untrustworthy, and a liar, it seems that when it comes to their support for Hillary, the top principle is her lack of a Peter Principle. 

Hillary - Woman of the People

Back in April, Democrat Presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton made a campaign appearance and talked about income inequality while wearing a $12,495 Giorgio Armani jacket. Well I guess you can do that when you received $250,000 per speech to Wall Street firms like Goldman Sachs. I'm sure if she becomes president she will ensure all the rest of us are able to afford fancy duds like that,  one $15 minimum wage hour at a time. What a woman of the people; what a hypocrite! "Let them eat cake" anyone?

Republicans get rich and run for public office - that bothers Democrats.
Democrats get elected to public office and get rich - that bothers conservatives like me.
Where do you stand?

Public Service Should Not Be a Path to Personal Wealth

I can think of no path to personal wealth in public service that isn't already illegal or should be made illegal because at its core, there lies a conflict of interest.

Truth Doesn't Need Embellishment

Or eight second pauses for dramatic for that matter. This is just another example (almost daily) of our shameful media and its so-called "journalists" lying and using deception to promote their political views. The truth can stand on its own. It doesn't need your help Ms. Couric. The editing of your story to add a "beat" is deceptive; the equivalent of a lie. I'm sure your parents taught you better. Shame on you!

I'm beginning to think "no freedom of the press (media) is better than a dishonest one!
