"In a culture based on consumption..."

                               this is a very interesting article from the american rifleman mag.(NRA)

lots of gun action in the news of late...too many shots fired or not enough...latest is of a gun punk who was going to wreak havoc at a food court...killed three but an armed man killed him dead...they are saying he is a hero...of course every person that needs to be a hero now expects to "get his man" and they are mostly incompetent ninnies with guns...oregon has introduced legislation that requires firearms training before you can get a gun...now lets see the guy on the roof in las vegas was extremely familiar with his large collection of guns and he murdered a lot of people...the "well regulated militia" clause in amendment #2 is largely ignored...if one is actually in a well regulated militia you are for ever under surveillance for being a radical...something has to be changed...too many guns in the hands of people who are a danger to society...and not enough consideration for those people who can be an asset to society by being armed and responsible...not all guns and gun owners are bad or dangerous

i see where the musk mellon wants out of his 44 billion dollar twitter purchase...bad investment anyhow but i see where argentina is 44 billion dollars in the hole...maybe musk mellon can buy argentina and be made the CEO and straighten that country out...might make a great trend where big money people purchase an ailing country and make them prosperous...the Rockefellers did it in west virginia and arkansas ans actually helped the states...

was reading about putins $500,000 wrist watch...what a sicko...i have a 3 dollar casio thrift store watch which loses a minute a month...i have several actually...i recently bought a magazine in the thrift store which is  about the "trending" things to own...there were a dozen watch advertisements...a watch fetish to be sure...we have gun fetishists, car fetishists and i suppose guitar fetishist too...we need tombe in group therapy...you go first....

"In a culture based on consumption rather than production, the meaning of an object derives not from its use but from its acquisition." from an article about Jean Baudrillard
