Publix Supermarkets has changed its open carry policy, now allowing only law enforcement to openly carry firearms in its stores. The change was confirmed on the supermarket’s FAQ section of its website.
It comes after Publix previously announced last year that customers would be allowed to open carry, following a change in Florida law. That decision led to mixed reactions from customers. The new Florida law allows open carry but includes restrictions: it’s still prohibited for those under 21 or with felony convictions. Private businesses can also opt out.
As a former (long time ago former) cop and a gun owner - and something of an advocate, I didn't agree with the open-carry thing only because in my heart of hearts I know sure as the day is long, some people are idiots. There's the open-carry idiot who thinks he's a cross between Quick Draw McGraw and Dudley DoRight, and then there's the openly sheepish faint at the sound of a fart types who are afraid of anything and everything.
IMHO, Open carry's good for law enforcement and security personnel, not so much for the newspaper or grocery delivery guys, if ya catch my drift.

72 years ago yesterday. May 08, 1945 — Two million people gathered in Times Square to celebrate the end of World War II in Europe. Certainly different times. That will never happen again. And you know that's true.

Gary Trudeau is now 78. Think he's still drawing the strip? As well drawn and (GULP) well-written as it is, I have never liked it because of it's over-the-cliff anti-American leftist leanings. I didn't realize until recently that it's actually classified (by the media) as a political cartoon.
I guess that makes sense when you put it in that perspective. Interesting side note about Trudeau himself. Back in the 80's-90's when I lived on St. John, so did his Mother, and I got to meet him on more than a few ocassions. He was actually a pretty nice guy - easy to talk to, kinda down-to-earth-ish, but his Mom? Nuttier that a friggin' five-year-old fruitcake. Funny, certainly not dangerous, just about 12 cards short of a deck with the Jokers left in.

Another over-the-hill useless piece of Hollywood friggin' garbage is fighting for relevancy with these stupid anti-Trump statements. What the media itself will never fully understand is that they themselves are the only ones who give a fuck what any of these friggin posers think, from Deniro on down the line. STFU and go away should be our new mantra.

"Vanesa from Virginia" is nearly a quarter million dollars richer after scoring a historic money prize on “The Price is Right.” The retired veteran, who appeared on Friday’s Mother’s Day-themed episode, nabbed $240,150 in cash and prizes following several rounds of “The Lion’s Share” - the BetMGM-branded grocery price guessing game - on the CBS daytime show. It’s the largest one-game payout in the 54-year history of “The Price Is Right,” making it a milestone moment for the mainstay game show.

Hopewell, NJ — New Jersey motor vehicle officials have recalled a personalized license plate reading “FDT-8647” after the anti-Trump message circulated widely online and triggered complaints about political rhetoric targeting President Donald Trump.
The plate, which was photographed on a vehicle in Hopewell Township in Mercer County, remained active for roughly a year before the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission moved to revoke it, according to reporting from NJ.com and widespread social media discussion this week.
Complaints started coming into the office after a report earlier this week by Shore News Network and static online through posts on social media as the story grew. Agency officials took notice and recalled the license plate.
The controversy intensified because critics argue the combination carried a vulgar anti-Trump slogan alongside the politically charged “8647” phrase, which some supporters of the president interpret as language advocating harm against the 47th president.

Am I the only one who's noticed that none of the Dem politicans or pundits are good looking? Well, maybe if you're a lesbian you might disagree with that but anyway...
