Comments on: Money, Palin, Pianos, and Guns http://www.artsandammo.com/2008/10/07/money-palin-pianos-and-guns/ High Caliber Culture Thu, 28 Apr 2011 15:00:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Hucbald http://www.artsandammo.com/2008/10/07/money-palin-pianos-and-guns/comment-page-1/#comment-511 Hucbald Thu, 09 Oct 2008 04:05:17 +0000 http://www.artsandammo.com/?p=247#comment-511 I would also point out that no country but the US could possibly produce a Palin, for the simple reason that women do not have the freedom to do things like learn to shoot rifles, pistols, and shotguns, and learn to hunt anywhere else. In fact, most men worldwide do not have those options available to them because their governments deny them their God given rights. Most of the Palin hatred exhibited outside of the US is simple envy. Inside the US, it is also envy, but of a different sort. Outside of the US Palin haters know they don't have the freedom to become a Palin even if they wanted to, while inside the US Palin haters know they don't have the guts. I disagree about the Chinese Piano Mom phenomenon, however. No country produces as many outside-the-box thinkers as the US either. So, the children of Chinese piano moms will end up playing the music the children of US hockey moms write. The spread of Christianity in China is amazing, and I'm not alone in thinking it will eventually swallow up communism there. The Chinese have thousands of years of entrepreneurship under their belts. There couldn't possibly be a more inappropriate form of government for them than communism.
