Speech Control Act of 2018

QUESTION: If you can make a law regulating the 2nd Amendment Right to Keep and Bear Arms that says you have to be 21 to buy an “assault weapon”, can’t you make a law “regulating” the First Amendment Freedom of Speech to say that you cannot threaten someone with bodily harm? Especially the President? That makes more sense than restricting a good law-abiding person from buying a semi-auto firearm just because it looks like a military one and he is only 20 years old. So, if a person says, “I’m going to punch your lights out,” That could be a…

Woman ordered to lie under oath

Dear American Patriot, This is how despicable our judicial system has become.  I, Jonesy, have been abused by the judiciary in a similar manner. After reading the below, if you are as incensed as I am, please send a snail-mail letter (not email) to the judge, to our Attorney General, and to President Trump. Their mailing addresses and my letter to them precede the message. Feel free to adapt it for yourself. Shorter is better. Just cut and paste and edit. This effort needs to go viral. It has nothing to do with the particulars of the case. It has…

Trump is right about immigrants from some countries

President Trump is under tremendous pressure to simply allow all people anywhere, even from “s…hole countries” to immigrate without restriction. The linked article at the end is a sobering first-hand report of these countries that President Trump does not want immigrants from. Her first three paragraphs remind me of the culture shock I got in 1966 when I arrived in Korea to begin my Mormon mission. Signs on walls in alleys “Don’t poop here”  “Don’t pee here”, with a pile of human feces below the sign.  Men carrying “honey-buckets” down the street from your outhouse to his truck.  A lady…

Jonesy is a racist

I get accused of racism frequently by liberals. Here was one of my recent replies. Tim accused me, Maury, of being a racist because I didn’t like Obama.

Gee, Tim, I didn’t know I was a racist. I’ve got a daughter-in-law who is black as the ace of spades–and her son, my grandson— has a brown skin. I love them both. My sister is full-blooded Navajo and I love her. I have quite a number of close friends who are Hispanic. Nolan was the Best Man at my wedding.  His mother was Mexican (we called them in those days). I was born and raised in southern Arizona so I had LOTS of Mexican friends while growing up. The Mormon Missionaries here in Jackson love me and I love them and they are Hispanic. A couple of my best friends are African American.

I guess I’ll have to repent from being racist. What do I do now, Tim? I’m at a loss as to know how to correct this flaw in my character.

Oh, I forgot one more thing, Tim, which shows the racist flaw in my character;

Last election I voted for Taylor Haynes for Governor of Wyoming. http://haynesonwyoming.com/
He’s a Wyoming cowboy who has either been out in the sun WAY too long or he is of African-American ancestry. His skin is b-l-a-c-k. (shudder) I voted for him. A really good man and a patriot with cowboy common sense.

We racists have no scruples: we will vote for the best person for the job no matter the color.

Oh, and by the way, I am also misogynist (noun: 1. a person who dislikes, despises, or is strongly prejudiced against women.) I didn’t like Hillary and didn’t vote for her. That is proof of another flaw in my character. In my defense, I loved my mother, I love my wife, I love my three sisters, I love my four daughters, I love my six granddaughters, and I love many many women for the beautiful people that they are–inside and out. I have a hard time reconciling that with my misogyny.

I’m working on my misogyny as hard as I’m working on my racism. Please help me, psychiatrist Dr. Welch.

Eliminating Elk Feedgrounds in Jackson Hole is a STUPID Idea!

A lawsuit has been filed to eliminate supplemental feeding of elk. Columns have been written in the JHN&G supporting the concept of “incrementally closing elk feedgrounds”. This insane idea continues in spite of the undeniable facts. Biologists say that doing away with elk feedgrounds will reduce our elk population by more than 60%, possibly as much as 80%. That means at least 15,000 elk in the Jackson Hole Area will starve to death in a harsh winter like 2016-17. While they are starving those thousands of elk will be in all of our yards destroying our landscaping and vegetation. They…

Social Security has been robbed!

Hi to all you Patriots out there. We have a group of a dozen or so who are almost equally divided as conservative and liberal. We go the rounds on a number of topics, the health care fiasco being one.  Yesterday I made the observation that Medicare and Social Security are socialist programs. Alex replied: Medicare is not a disaster nor is Social Security. And they are both socialist programs. Then Rulon wrote this poem in reply. Quite true, Alex, my dear, Listen to me please, Let me be clear! Keith and Maury, Through irrational extrapolation, Draw unjustified conclusions, About…

ObamaCare-Lite or RINO-Care

To: Republican National Committee and President Donald J. Trump and Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Senator John Barrasso and Senator Michael Enzi, I got your note soliciting me for donattions to the RNC. I verify that I am a Registered Republican. But for how long? First: The Republican Congress laid a bill on President Obama’s desk in 2015 which completely repealed ObamaCare. Of course Congress knew he would veto it. Now that the Republicans have a President that will sign it, do they put the same bill on his desk? NO! What do they do?…

The Planet is Melting!!

I have a huge file on the subject of man-caused global warming, both pro and con. Looking at the facts and not the hyperbole, the climate has neither warmed nor cooled for the past 100 years. Hear me out. When you average the actual recorded temperatures since 1880, there is statistically no warming or cooling. The temperature right now is the same as it has been historically for the past 137 years, within about one degree. There is evidence of a conspiracy by some political elites and researchers to use global warming as a means to greater political power and…

Global Warming Baloney, again

A big New York Times article says “Earth Sets a Temperature Record for the Third Straight Year.” http://thefederalist.com/2017/01/18/nyt-hid-numbers-hottest-year-record/ by Robert Tracinski Excerpts from the article; “The number of relevant numbers in this [New York Times] article is: zero. We are not told what the average global temperature was, how much higher this is than last year’s record or any previous records, or what the margin of error is supposed to be on those measurements. …Yet that’s what passes for “science reporting” on the issue of global warming, where asking for numbers and margins of errors apparently makes you an enemy…

The Rules of the Game

“The Rules of the Game” by Maury Jones Some are complaining that Donald Trump didn’t win the popular vote, only the Electoral College, so he is an illegitimate President. They say his win doesn’t really count. They say most of the people voted for Hillary so Trump isn’t really the President.  They complain the rules of the game are unfair. When you play a game, you know the rules ahead of time. You either win or lose by those rules. In the 1960 World Series the New York Yankees outscored the Pittsburg Pirates 55–27, outhit them 91 to 60, outbatted…
