Is the country run by idiots?

If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for being in the country illegally ... you might live in a country
founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

If you have to show identification to board an airplane, cash a check,
buy liquor, or check out a library book, but not to vote who runs the
government ... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run
by idiots.

If the government wants to ban stable, law-abiding citizens from
owning gun magazines with more than ten rounds, but gives 20 F-16
fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt ... you might live in a
country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

If, in the largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not a
24-ounce soda because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat
... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots .

If an 80-year-old woman can be stripped searched by the TSA but a
woman in a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched
... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions
of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more ... you might live in a
country founded by geniuses but run by idiots .

If a seven year old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his
teacher is "cute", but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class
in grade school is perfectly acceptable ... you might live in a
country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

If children are forcibly removed from parents who discipline them with
spankings while children of addicts are left in filth and drug
infested ?homes?... you might live in a country founded by geniuses
but run by idiots .

If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government
intrusion, while not working is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks,
Medicaid, subsidized housing, and free cell phones ... you might live
in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots .

If the government's plan for getting people back to work is to be an
incentive NOT working with 99 weeks of Unemployment checks and no
requirement to prove they applied but can't find work ... you might
live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots .

If you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big
screen TV while your neighbor buys iPhones, TV's and new cars, and the
government forgives his debt when he defaults on his mortgage ... you
might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots .

If being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you more
"safe" according to the government ... you might live in a country
founded by geniuses but run by idiots .

---------------------------

Participating in a gun "buy back" because you believe that the
criminals have too many guns is like having yourself castrated because
you believe that the neighbors have too many kids.

Yes, especially here in the great state of Maryland due to the logic free zone just down the road from you there Bob in Annapolis. Our state politicians believe everyone in this state is stupid. Well they are wrong. Only most of the people are stupid. How else could the citizens of our state let them get away with the lies and crap that they come up with all the time? Multiply that by 50 and you've got the good ol' USA.
