No one really cares about the waiting periods.

Problem is, Obama's 2nd Amendment record and his laws in Illinois (I should know since I lived there 21 years) is a pretty atrocious history in accordance to being anywhere close to acceptable for people who want to own a gun for protection, hunting, etc. There is a gun ban in Chicago he made. It's nowhere close to working well.

The fact is that you vote for one thing but if you don't look at the underlying truths to it, you're also voting in a plethora of other things because of the nice thing call 'legal interpretation'. It's sort of like how lotteries got passed here in Arkansas with a good opposition to it. Yes, that gives you lotteries, but that also paves the way in for casinos and things of that nature with the way the laws are written here and those are thing the uneducated don't know.

In California, sports drinks, which can contain almost as much sugar as soda, are still allowed in middle and high schools, but sodas, including diet sodas, will be banned from all schools next year.

To suggest that it's alright to try to force stores to celebrate it as such (as in the boycotts of stores that don't) is extremely dangerous.
