subject: Taxing Food

Hello Janis,

JK>States that tax food (geez :() Alabama, Arkansas (3%), Hawaii,
JK>Idaho, Illinois (1%), Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri (1.225%),
JK>Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee (5.5%), Utah (1.75%), Virginia
JK>(1.5% + 1% local option tax), and West Virginia (5%).  That to
JK>me is criminal.

You forgot Louisiana.

>>fine as a matter of fact).  He was a Muslim, but so what?  So was Muhammed
>> Ali..

At least Ali was a man of principle.  Rather than run away to another
land (like the sons of so many rich folks had done), Ali chose to stay
and face the music.  He may have been many things to many people.  But
he was no coward.

The guy was mentally unbalanced, but able to get all the guns he
wanted legally.

JK>If gun law existed that stopped nitwits like this guy from ever
JK>owning a gun, that would have worked.

The nutcase who murdered and maimed all those gays and lesbians
at a club in Orlando obtained all the guns he used legally.  His
wife claims she tried to talk him out of going to the club, but
chose to do nothing to warn authorities beforehand of what his
intentions were.  But that was okay, because he was a Muslim.
And we all know how Muslims treat their women.  Which explains
why his ex-wife left him years ago.

Donald Trump is right.  We have to find out who these people
are *before* allowing them (and their families) into this country.
Once they get here, they disappear into the woodwork and are
never found again.  Until it is too late.  Far too late.

But until then, what is needed is gun control.  Not a watered-down
version of the Brady bill, but real gun control.  Such as closing
the loophole allowing nutcases to buy semi-automatics (and all other
such weapons of mass destruction) at gun shows.
