First Amendment allows us to wear a mask.

Second Amendment says we can carry a gun.

Anyone in the Washington D.C. area looking for a fall reset/expansion of the way they approach their photography would do well to consider this six-week course. I’ve known @billcrandall.com for 30 years; he brings a wealth of experience to this program.

Reading through the story, I really would have liked to know who these farmers supported for President.
