Hugs all around

    There are very few people that know where there place in life is. some think that it is to be rich as humanly possible. or great artists. or some other grandiose ideal versions of themselves. I figured mine out a while ago. I am happiest when I help people. Especially my family, and mostly my wife. I took the day off of work to support her. I love her, I love what she does. Any way I can help her succeed I am more than happy to do.  So I like helping people. 
    Guns, guns, guns, it is the hot topic of conversation these days. I feel that I should weigh in, it's my journal anyway. The Second Amendment of the Constitution states:
     A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed
    The lobbyists and the NRA really concentrate on the second half of that for their argument about owning fire arms. In my mind the first part is just as important. "A well-regulated militia" could be seen as the national guard stationed in each state. if it was just the military that were allowed to bear firearms the amount of gun violence would be greatly reduced. this may not be a solution but this has worked in other countries England and Japan. Something to look at here in the U.S.A.

Low point of the day: waking up with a stiff neck.

High point of the day: Helping my wife transport her materials to her office. we had good pizza in the car and got to spend a little more time than most days allow.

What i learned today: Japanese police instead of shooting or tasering a hostile or belligerent suspect will pacify them by wrapping a large blanket around them.
