For those we lost, We will not forget 09/11/2001 “Our God given unalienable rights are given to us all as individuals. They tell us what we may do for ourselves, and they are the embodiment of liberty. The so-called rights that government gives to some of us are parcelled out to select groups as classes. They tell us what one class of people may require another to do for them, and they are the very essence of slavery.”

I think it's about time! I like professional sports as much as the next guy, but the people in Washington State have gotten screwed by the politicians in Washington State over professional sports too many times for my comfort.

Now if we could get a state-wide initiative started to prohibit the counties and the legislature from declaring an emergency funding need when the people reject funding for professional sports stadiums, I could get behind that!
