Gunslinger



GUNSLINGER

Lookin' out 'cross this town
Kinda makes me wonder how
All the things that made us great
Got left so far behind

This used to be a peaceful place
Decent folk's, hard workin' ways
Now they hide behind locked doors
Afraid to speak their mind

I think we need a gunslinger
Somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
There'll be justice all around

Someone let the fences go
Wild eyed bunch moved in, you know
Shootin' up the streets, shoutin' everybody down
The dogs all runnin' loose

Wrecked the paper, closed the school
Tired old judge got roughed up too
No one left to make a stand
They whisper what's the use

I think we need a gunslinger
Somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
And there'll be justice all around

I think we need a gunslinger
Somebody tough to tame this town
Think we need a gunslinger
And there'll be justice all around

I think we need a gunslinger
Somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
And there'll be justice all around

-John Fogerty

The tyrant's Constitution

"(Missouri's)Tuesday's vote was seen as largely symbolic because federal law generally trumps state law. But it was also seen as a sign of growing voter disillusionment with federal policies and a show of strength by conservatives and the tea party movement."

Yes, you are correct, now that the Constitution no longer exists Federal law usually does trump state law.

Good for Missouri, now they must fight for it. I hope they win.
