When my daughter first showed signs of hating herself, I got out photoshop. We went and found an image of her choosing, of a woman. I spent the next two hours showing her just how easy it was to alter this woman. I changed her hair, whitened her teeth, made her thinner. I erased her blemishes and even made her taller while my daughter sat there aghast. At the end of it she loudly said - ” THAT’S NOT FAIR!” 

I told her that damn near every image she saw of people in magazines, on television, etc, was altered like this, and that she should never compare herself to that, because even supermodels don’t look like supermodels. 

I wish I could do that for every child. I wish it was a mandatory class in school.

My Sister Paid Progressive Insurance to Defend Her Killer In Court

I’ve been sending out some impertinent tweets about Progressive Insurance lately, but I haven’t explained how they pissed me off. So I will do that here as succinctly as possible. There’s a general understanding that says, “insurance companies— oh they’re awful,” but since Progressive turned their shit hose on my late sister and my parents, I’ve learned some things that really surprised me.

I’ll try to cleave to the facts. On June 19, 2010, my sister was driving in Baltimore when her car was struck by another car and she was killed. The other driver had run a red light and hit my sister as she crossed the intersection on the green light.

“No one should have any illusions about what was accomplished [by the ban]. Assault weapons play a part in only a small percentage of crime. The provision is mainly symbolic; its virtue will be if it turns out to be, as hoped, a stepping stone to broader gun control.”

M14 with 50 round mag

The M14 is definitely my favorite gun, what I would want to carry into battle. Big bullets, excellent accuracy, low recoil. Sure it may be a little heavy, but is that so much to ask for an excellent all-around weapon?

Chutzpah!

Senator Diane Feinstein (Dem. California), a leader in the anti-gun movement who supports bills to ban semi-automatic weapons and conceal carry permits, was granted a weapons permit in 1970, she carried a .38 revolver and was the only person in San Francisco to have such permit.

Another anti-gun politician, Chuck Schumer (Dem. New York), who supports assault weapons bans, bans on handguns, and conceal carry has an unrestricted handgun permit granted by the state of New York allowing him to own, posses, and carry a pistol.

Celebrity Rosie O’Donnell, who believes that all guns should be banned, hires a personal staff of bodyguards who are required to carry handguns.
