Do you have Guns in your house?  I have been asked "Do you keep guns in the house?" The nurse just kinda slipped it in along with all the other regular questions.  I told her I refused to answer because it was against the law to ask.   Everyone,whether you have guns or not, should give a neutral answer so they have no idea who does and who doesn't.        My doctor asked me if I had guns in my house and also if any were loaded.? I, of course, answered yes to both questions. Then he asked why I kept a loaded gun close to my bed.  I answered that my son, who is a certified gun instructor and also works for Homeland Security,  advised me that an unloaded, locked up gun is no protection against criminal attack. The Government now requires these questions be asked of people on Medicare, and probably everyone else.        Just passing this along for your information:   I had to visit a doctor other than my regular doctor when my doctor was on vacation.  One of the questions on the form I had to fill out was: Do you have any guns in your house? My answer was "None of your damn business!"   It is either an insurance issue or government intervention.  Either way, it is out there and the second the government gets into your medical records (As they want to do under Obamacare) it will become a major issue and will ultimately result in lock and load!!     Please pass this on to all the other retired guys and gun owners...Thanks        From a Vietnam Vet and retired Police Officer: I had a doctors appointment at the local VA clinic yesterday and found out something very interesting that I would like to pass along.   While going through triage before seeing the doctor, I was asked at the end of the exam, three questions:            1. Did I feel stressed?     2. Did I feel threatened?     3. Did I feel like doing harm to someone?   The nurse then informed me, that if I had answered yes to any of the questions, I would have lost my concealed carry permit as it  would have gone into my medical records and the VA would have reported it to Homeland Security.        Looks like they are going after the vets first. Other gun people like retired law enforcement will probably be next. Then when they go after the civilians, what argument will they have?        Be forewarned and be aware.  The Obama administration has gone on record as considering veterans and gun owners potential terrorists.  Whether you are a gun owner veteran or not, YOU"VE BEEN WARNED If you know veterans and gun owners, please pass this on to them. Be very cautious about what you say and to whom.

Afghanistan and the Long War By George Friedman | March 20, 2012 The war in Afghanistan has been under way for more than 10 years. It has not been the only war fought during this time; for seven of those years another, larger war was waged in Iraq, and smaller conflicts were under way in a number of other countries as well. But the Afghanistan War is still the longest large-scale, multi-divisional war fought in American history. An American soldier's killing of 16 Afghan civilians, including nine children, on March 11 represents only a moment in this long war, but it is an important moment. In the course of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, military strategists in the United States developed the concept of the long war. The theory was presented in many ways, but its core argument was this: The defeat of Taliban forces and the Iraqi resistance would take a long time, but success would not end the war because Islamist terrorism and its supporters would be a constantly shifting threat, both in the places and in the ways they would operate. Therefore, since it was essential to defeat terrorism, the United States was now engaging in a long war whose end was distant and course unknown. Read More » Comments?
