I'll tell you right now, about one person in Arizona who knows how to deal with a lunatic. That person is Governor Jan Brewer. With the help of unanimous votes in both the Senate, (29-0), and the House, (58-0), she pushed through emergency legislation, making it a misdemeanor to picket/protest within 300 feet of a funeral or burial anywhere in the state of Arizona.
This new law, of course, is primarily aimed at one particular group of nuts known as the Westboro Baptist Church, and their Head Loony, Fred Phelps, after their release of a statement that they would be protesting the funerals of those killed in the Satuday shootings in Tucson.
Okay..........up to this point, this posting has sounded a bit like some boring old news release. (Okay, not totally, but somewhat.) Right here is where that ends. That's the great thing about a blog like this, is that, we can reach out and touch alot of folks,. but, unlike the "official" press, we can get away with expressing our own, personal thoughts and feelings about a particular person, or subject. Gotta love it!!!
To Gov. Brewer and all those in the AZ State Senate and State House, Hooray!!! >>>>>Another nice thing about these blogs is that I'm not under any deadline to post something, and so, as I am getting tired, and hungry, I will return later to add to this.................
