quote: ORIGINAL: farglebargle If you need to pass a drug test to receive a benefit like food stamps, shouldn't you have to pass a drug test to receive a benefit which could be used to kill someone? Be careful what you wish for. Drug tests not only drain tax payer money. But some politician twiddling his thumbs in DC may decide, "hell, why only foodstamps and guns? why don't we drug test for driving? why don't we drug test for owning a business? why don't we drug test for anything we can drug test for? It gets to be a bit absurd and ridiculous. IMO

quote: ORIGINAL: papassion Surely you are not stupid enough to think "promote the general welfare" refers to the welfare government programs we have today. A little reading will inform you that welfare, the government giving people money for doing nothing, did not exist when the constitution was written. Oh I don't know, look at some of those politicans, they do nothing and get paid for it. Also remember that welfare programs also include Social Security, which you are taxed for. Also welfare programs date back to the Romans In the Roman Empire, the first emperor Augustus provided the 'congiaria' or corn dole for citizens who could not afford to buy food

Are you so totally unaware of history as to not realize that the ancient Romans never saw corn and therefore could have had no word for it?

quote: ORIGINAL: Kirata quote: ORIGINAL: LizDeluxe "Promote the general welfare" means "handouts" but "shall not be infringed" does not mean "shall not be infringed". Thanks for clearing that up. I think it would count as promoting the general welfare if these people had removed their attackers from the gene pool. Woman attacked and thrown on subway tracks Woman with child stabbed inside Bed Bath & Beyond Woman's face slashed in attack at Fayette Mall Dallas store clerk beaten with hammers K. Does your list include Micheal Dunn, John Horn, James Patrick Wonder, Raul Rodriguez, Jake England...I could go on.... And you still not getting a free pass to Comic-Con.

Personally, I really don't have a problem with drug testing as a requisite for having a firearms license as long as those receiving government assistance are held to the the same standard. Urinating into a cup is a small inconvenience if it helps eliminate the moocher class in our country. The savings from fraudulent assistance that we no longer have to pay out will probably pay for all of the drug testing and still net us a balance. For once we agree on something, farglebargle. Hell hath frozen over.

"congiaria" is a word that referrs to types of grain does not mean corn as we know it. Again if you have some problem with this take it up with Augustus, not me, I am only quoting him.[sm=rolleyes.gif] From the Oxford Dictionary Definition of corn noun [mass noun] 1British the chief cereal crop of a district, especially (in England) wheat or (in Scotland) oats: fields of corn

Shall not be infringed". What part of that do you not understand? If we let them take out guns we deserve what happens next. A Zero murder by gun rate more than likely.[:)]

quote: ORIGINAL: Nosathro A Zero murder by gun rate more than likely. Yes, and that's obviously what you care most about. Assault, rape, and homicide by other means, not so much. After all, things are so much more "civilized" when citizens are denied an effective means of defending themselves, right? K.

quote: ORIGINAL: Real0ne quote: ORIGINAL: Nosathro quote: ORIGINAL: LizDeluxe How about we just do away with food stamps? I see them mentioned nowhere in the Bill Of RIGHTS. Preamble of the US Constitution: We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,[note 1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. interesting, so whats with the red? what does that mean? He thinks that it means 1. That promote the general welfare is a constitutional mandate for food stamps. 2. That making it red means we dummies might get the point
