Let's see what you've got. For Sale is due October 6th, 2013.

I won't be in Washington D.C. this month, so I can't submit a picture
of the Capitol or the White House.

They sold out a long time ago.

True. But it's on ongoing sale.

Confirmed then: they are prostitutes.

Now, now, there's no need to insult prostitutes. I'll take them over
politicians any day.


Is there a difference?

Have you ever been satisfied with any encounter with a politician?
With a prostitute there is always the promise of some sort of
satisfaction, however fleeting that might be.

Actually, I've had one experience in dealing with a politician, and no
experience at all dealing with a prostitute. My US Representative did
meet with me, and did take care of a problem for me. He was quite
efficient.


that was one politician that help.

Well, I asked one to help and he did so.

When over 90% of the people surveyed want to ban gun ownership to people
with mental problems, whey hasn't backround check legislation passed.

That isn't an example of a experience with a politician. While I
agree with you on the need - although I would take it further and have
much more stringent gun controls - you brought up comparing a personal
experience with a politician vs a personal experience with a
prostitute.

Besides, background check legislation was enacted 20 years ago, so the
politicians can be forgiven for not passing the same law again.


Tell them in Washington. :-(


Stores that sell guns in Florida are required to conduct background
checks. Not to worry, though, if you don't think you will pass. Just
go to a flea market and buy a gun. Don't want to wait until the
weekend for the flea market? Look on Craigslist and buy one today.
No background checks required by either seller.


Which is the general exception for private sales, which is a nod to the
reality that there is no practical way to police private sales of
firearms. When Grandpa kicks it and Grandma wants to get rid of his
guns, she's not going to consult a lawyer to find out that she has to do
background checks. That's the reality that Congress was dealing with,
and making a criminal out of Grandma is a political non-starter.
