Priorities of State Legislators Suspect


I am so proud of our fine state legislators that were able to unite to approve legislation concerning ‘gun rights’ bills, which most likely will be declared unconstitutional, while not having a clue as to how to control a state budget billions of dollars in the red. This present action by our legislators is like focusing on a hangnail while dying of cancer.
While health care, the state’s infrastructures, food kitchens for the hungry, and education all continue to be slashed in funding with no united consensus among our legislators on a viable plan to ‘stop the bleeding’,  it’s good to know where their priorities regarding the overall prosperity of the state lay.   

It’s comforting to realize that we can all sleep well at night knowing that no one can place any restrictions on our prized weapons.  However, if the legislators don’t get it together and unite against Governor Jindal, including the necessity of overriding his vetoes, by creating a sound state budgetary plan, everyone may just end up using their guns to guard a ‘junk yard’.
