Reading Jefferson is kind of like reading Shakespeare, takes a minute for it to sink in.  :hihi:  Love how Duff writes.

'?but laws and institution must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind as that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered, and manners and opinions change. With the change in circumstances, institutions must also advance to keep with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat that fitted him when a boy, as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.'
Tho. Jefferson

Great quote.

It is interesting that politicians seem so out of touch with the times. Like how marijuana legalization seemed more popular than any politician this election but neither presidential candidate really even addressed the issue. That was a big part of why I could not bring myself to vote for either of them.

Then theres issues like the people trying to take evolution out of schools and replace it with fake ass intelligent design pseudo science in a country that was largely founded on the principal of seperation between church and state. Not only do we not always evolve, we actually roll backwards a lot too.

Nice to see Duff writing again, especially for a title with a (I would assume) younger audience than some of his previous outlets.

Banning AK-47's and the like? Probably a damn good idea, right? Who needs them?-

good luck trying to actually get the owners of those things to give them up. you very well may end up having to use force.
