Via WZ who writes:  Blatant intimidation. Below is a screenshot of their map, if you hover over each red dot it displays the name and address of the person licensed to own a handgun.  Perhaps someone should publish the names and addresses of all the homes who do not have active home security systems ?

(Gannett Owned Journal News)   The map indicates the addresses of all pistol permit holders in Westchester and Rockland counties. Each dot represents an individual permit holder licensed to own a handgun — a pistol or revolver. The data does not include owners of long guns — rifles or shotguns — which can be purchased without a permit. Being included in this map does not mean the individual at a specific location owns a weapon, just that they are licensed to do so. (more…)

Just another case of insufferable progdom. It’s outrageous that NRA head would recommend armed personnel in schools, yet same prog inquisitor has 11 armed guards in school surrounding his kids.

WASHINGTON DC – David Gregory mocked the NRA’s Wayne LaPierre for proposing that armed guards be at every school in America. But the NBC host seems to have no problem with armed guards protecting his kids everyday where they attend school in Washington, D.C.

“You proposed armed guards in school. We’ll talk about that in some detail in a moment. You confronted the news media. You blamed Hollywood and the gaming industry. But never once did you concede that guns could actually be part of the problem. Is that a meaningful contribution, Mr. LaPierre, or a dodge?,” asked Gregory. (more…)

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

If you are like most of us, you are already making treats for the holidays. At the very least, you may want to get the shopping done early. We are starting the recipe thread now, so that we can get a head start on the best ideas for our feast.

It would be wonderful to get the usual regional favorites, but since we have some international posters, how about some recipes from Switzerland, France, India? One of my co-workers gave me a great bread recipe that is always served at his family dinner, along with other favorite Czechoslavakian traditional foods. I will share that recipe too.

What are your favorite childhood memories of Christmas dinner? My family still does a huge breakfast after midnight mass. Yes, at 2 in the morning, I am cooking ham and eggs, biscuits and gravy, and usually some hash browns too. All because that’s what my husband grew up with, and now my sons won’t grow out of it either.

We will try to bump the thread every day or so between now and Christmas, so keep those favorites coming.

Post your videos, pictures and stories here. It’s time for holiday cheer and hope.
