But that was then. He was blacklisted in the 50s in S Ca in his teaching job, and ended up teaching in Guam until he retired.

I'm reading some of his books now. I remember when I first moved here and saw a guy walking from his vehicle with a rifle into some wooded area. Yikes, if that had happened in Ca he would have been arrested.

Except for maybe Kurt Vonnegut.<br /><br />As far as toting guns, we are quite used to that living in Arizona. It's illegal to conceal a weapon. It must be in plain sight. Now if you go into a public place resturant,bar etc. you are required to check it with the owner. nickNicholas Garcia (Nick)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12539813649415649940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33534796.post-8521730527118477892009-08-29T20:35:46.156-07:002009-08-29T20:35:46.156-07:00I love the photo and I'm also sorry to hear yo...I love the photo and I'm also sorry to hear your friend is dealing with cancer. I so wish the country would change, stop living in fear and have the kinds of discussions and interactions that lead to understanding and positive change. Carrying guns, especially unconcealed weapons harkens back to scarier times in the south particularly. I've always thought guns should be outlawed, believed in socialised medicine, free education and equal rights. I must be an alien, too.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376645220662546020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33534796.post-71075054724095500792009-08-29T16:17:01.428-07:002009-08-29T16:17:01.428-07:00That is quite a photo.

I ...Yes, I remember that song. High school for me.<br /><br />I must be somewhat in denial because until I read your post just now, I have been blocking out the "guns in public" thing. I have heard it before, here and there, but not as much as one would expect if it is very prevalent. <br /><br />Is the national media ignoring this? It's big news.<br /><br />I'm deathly afraid of guns. Call it a phobia, call it good sense.
