They randomly fire their guns at who knows what. I never know who is firing the guns. I just know I hear them randomly at the damnedest times.

Otherwise, it's between U.S. Corporations and U.S. billionaires who are right wing. I feel no threat from someone like Ted Turner, but some of the others who support right wing policies are a threat. I just wish I could match them dollar for dollar, in the opposite direction, toward liberal policies and practices.
