"NEW" gun permit in rural GA

I was reading my local paper this morning (links to follow) and I came across a story from my home town of Commerce, GA, which is about 65 NE of Atlanta for those that don't know. It seems that the town is eat up with squirrels and the city council and Police chief John Gaissert have came up with a solution.

They are going to issue a special gun permit (pest-eradication licenses) that allows you to use low-power weapons, such as a shot gun with bird-shot or pellet guns. The usual background check does apply however and a fee of $20 just for the application. The prospective permit holder will also have to sit down with the police chief and discuss what weapon of choice they will want to use.


"This permit is narrowly defined to allow people to eliminate the pests that are damaging their "property," Gaissert added. "They would have to come in and talk with us about what kind of weapon they want to use and the type of pest that needs to be destroyed."

Now isn't this a kicker..... when so many folks want to outlaw all guns, one old, rural community is encouraging the community to use em....
I love it !!!!!!!

LETS PRINT OUR OWN MONEY NOW!!

After hearing of all this stimulus stuff over the last few months I thought it would be kool to just start printing our own money, which in a way is what the government is doing now. In the old days we had to have GOLD to back up the value of our money, but some where along the way this changed. It is to my searching that I have come to the conclusion that we should just print our own money. Our dollar is worthless and will continue to decline as long as the government continues to spend something we dont have.

Let me ask you all something ??? Do you go to the store and buy groceries and give them a check knowing you have no money ?? Do you go buy a car and give them a check knowing you have no money ?? I didnt think so !! So how can so many people just allow them to do this. We have ran out of money and options several years ago and making the problems worse are the spending of money we will never have. Without jobs we have no taxes, with out taxes we have no money for government. I just am amazed that the ideals of the basic needs of the american people of jobs for their well being and being able to support themselves and their families has been lost somehow. My father worked from the time he was like 10 in the cotton fields and then in the cotton mills before joining the Air Force. He did that to make a better life for my mom and then for us after we came along. What happened to those people who wanted to work and wanted better for themselves and their kids? Why has it gone to sucha giveme, giveme, giveme kinda state with hands out everwhere ?? It looks like everyone wants the easy way out. No one wants to work for anything anymore. The only way we will come out of this is to not be afraid to stand up and create new jobs and new businesses and new industry and not tax the hell out of them for trying to be what we all once were. Capitolism is what will fix all our problems not dictatorships or socialism.

Sen Ralph Hudgens........ STAY OUT OF MY UTERUS!!

I AM JUST ASHAMED OF THESE MEN IN CONGRESS
HOW DARE THEY TRY TO TAKE CONTROL OF MY UTERUS
AND MY EGGS....

THIS NEW BILL :: SENATE BILL 169

IS IN DIRECT RESPONSE TO THE "OCTOMOM"
AND GEORGIA LEGISLATORS ARE AFRAID IT MIGHT HAPPEN HERE IN GEORGIA! FIRST OF ALL MR. HUDGENS,
{State Sen. Ralph Hudgens, R-Hull}
NO DOCTOR IN HIS RIGHT MIND WOULD TRY SOMETHING LIKE THAT NOW GIVEN ALL THE SLACK THE CALIFORNIA DOCTOR IS GETTING AND FURTHER MORE IF I CHOSE TO SAVE MY EGGS OR EMBRYOS FOR FUTURE USE IT IS MY BUSINESS.

I AM NOT ASKING THE GOVERNMENT TO FOOT THE BILL FOR MY EXPENSE TO STORE MY EMBRYOS SO WHY DOES THIS CONCERN YOU?AFTER READING THE BILL I HAD NOTICED THERE IS NO PROVISION FOR WOMEN WHO ARE SUFFERING FOR ANY TYPE OF DISEASE AND WILL NEED TO UNDER GO TREATMENT, SUCH AS RADIATION, WHICH AFTER TREATMENT COULD LEAVE YOU STERILE. I THINK ANY WOMAN GIVEN THAT CHOICE SHOULD BE ABLE TO FREEZE HER EGGS OR EMBRYOS FOR FUTURE USE. AND TRY AS MANY TIMES AS NEED TO BECOME PREGNANT.
THIS JUST PISSES ME OFF TO NO END!!!

I HAVE PROVIDED A LINK WHERE YOU CAN READ THE BILL AND READ THE STORY THAT RAN IN THE ATHENS BANNER HERALD YESTERDAY AND TODAY
