Christopher Murphy and [...] Middle class in the U.S. can mean something very different depending on where you call your home state. Census bureau numbers show a shocking disparity in the definition of ‘middle income’ – with Maryland boasting an average of $67,469 and Mississippi posting an appallingly low $39,078, a difference of $28,391.

Connecticut tops the list with its massive wealth disparity – more than one $200,000 household for every household earning less than $10,000. New York, California, and D.C. are close behind with Oregon and Alabama [...] The following announcement is being circulated to Floridians to coincide with a national day of support for Second Amendment rights. “Guns Across America” is an event scheduled to take place on Saturday, Jan 19th, at noon in front of state Capitol buildings across the U.S.. http://www.bizpacreview.com/2013/01/13/guns-across-america-florida-joins-peaceful-national-protest-14259

In his boldest terms yet, he [...] What I think is strange about it: “All indications are Thursday’s raid was not directly related to the Newtown massacre investigation, but, as Besthoff reported, it was related to several other crimes committed at the store, including the recent theft of an AR-15 and the attempted theft of a .50-caliber long gun, both by a man with mental illness, Besthoff reported.” http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/12/20/connecticut-shop-where-nancy-lanza-bought-1-of-her-guns-raided-by-feds/ MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – A staff member who was worried about safety after the tragedy in Connecticut brought her own loaded gun to an elementary school on Wednesday. It happened at Seward Montessori in south Minneapolis. Police were called after the staff member told a teacher, who then told the principal. “It’s unnerving to have that type of call come in when your children are there, and you hope they’re safe,” said Jeanette Wiedemeier-Bower. Wiemeier-Bower’s 10-year-old [...] The cesspool known as Chicago probably has the toughest gun laws in the country, yet despite all the shootings, murders, and bloodshed, you never hear a peep about this from the corrupt state run media. In Chicago, there have been 446 school age children shot in leftist utopia run by Rahm Emanuel and that produced Obama, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, etc. 62 school aged children have actually been killed by [...] STRASBURG, Va. – A man was arrested after he carried a 2-by-4 board with the words “High Powered Rifle” written on it into a Virginia elementary school with the same name as the Connecticut elementary school where 26 people were killed last Friday.
