[GOA News] GOA fighting to protect the Second Amendment rights of our nation’s vet

The Fight to End the Disarming of Veterans UPDATE (Wednesday, June 5): The House of Representatives listened and passed H.R. 8580 by a vote of 209-196 with GOA-backed provisions to protect tens of thousands of veterans from being unconstitutionally disarmed by President Joe Biden’s bureaucrats. The key vote from yesterday can be found here, where ‘Aye’ is the correct vote. …<br/> <a class="postReadMore" href="https://www.gunowners.org/na060524/">Read more<i class="fa fa-angle-double-right"></i></a>

I've never had it before but it sounded good so I tried it. I had almost everything required in my cabinet except for the rice vinegar.  I substituted white vinegar even though it has a different flavor.  I picked up some shredded cabbage and mushrooms and away I went!
A word of caution... Put the danged marinade away until you're ready to use it. One taste turned into two turned into a tablespoon turned into.....   Man is it good!  
Anyway, I wilted the cabbage down more than I should've and it looked like 80% meat when it was done but it still was very good.  I'll be making it again, next time with rice vinegar.  I didn't bother with the tortillas, just ate it with a fork.  If you're a fan of sambal oelak (fermented hot chilis) I found it made a nice combination with a teaspoon on the plate beside it even though the moo shu is a sweet flavored dish.

This is an intersection about 3/4 of a mile from the Capitol of Colorado on the same street the Capitol is on……

Now Denver cut the cops budget by 8million and change but claim no changes to service (and they are trying to go to dispatching drones to calls for service that does not require an officer) 

Homeless vagrants broke open light pole electric box & were charging phones there. Now Denver has 40k plus criminal aliens the majority from Venezuela. That was a 7/11 that had to close due to heavy crime in the area, shoplifting and I think they had 2 shootings outside of it……

Every intersection had someone holding a sign, the crappy picture his sing said he just arrived in the US did not speak English and needed something and then the word taxes…while his daughter???? Was playing on a cell iPhone

The guy with the lawn chair was actually walking into the street with his sign while smoking and then flipped his cigarette on a car that honked at him…..

First time we went to this ice cream shop in almost 3.5 years 

The price went from $1.99 a scoop to $7.49 and the ice cream parlor went from 9A to midnight (very busy part of denver) to 1P to midnight and it was empty when normally it was very busy with a line 

It was tasty but also seemed different somehow, not as rich/creamy possibly
