When there are guns in the truck racks, you know the culture respects the rule of law.

I used to keep a (spent) LAWS rocket on mine. Got some funny looks.

I buy 67’s all the time, perfect gun to train beginners on, and then give it to them as a gift.

The acreage figure is incorrect. It should be 1,920 acres, not 1,960.

Mea Culpa.

Mr. Kenneth Ware agreed, but he did not want his face plastered on the Internet.

Huh. Wonder if he's any relation? Lol.

I was thinking about putting one of these in my backyard, but my wife vetoed the idea:

Against drones, it might be a bit of overkill.

I remember that the pilots were a bit unnerved when we got missile tone during training exercises! lol

"He farms three sections of wheat that he and his wife own without debt. That is 1,960 acres for people who do not have a background in surveying.

A "section" is one square mile, or 640 acres. Three sections is 1,920 acres.

The second gun on the rack? Per my Reporters Guide to fire arms is either a AR47 Gazzoka or a AK Glock Atomic Pulse Rifle and Cappuccino Maker. Can you tell me which it is? ;-)

I say it’s an AK Snowzooka Brushmatic but I’ve been know to be wrong since I couldn’t locate the selective fire switch...

I seem to remember a quote to the effect that "overkill never fails", or something along those lines.

In any event, if you encounter a good deal on those, please let me know as I have just the place for one. Oh, and a Bradley would be nice too...

Are you sure? My copy of A Reporters Guide to Firearms says that the AK Snowzooka Brushmatic was banned from civilian ownership and only former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's Body Guards can legally carry one?

The only reason we don’t open carry like that anymore is we don’t want our stuff stolen. In days past you could leave a rifle in the rack and windows down while you ate or shopped. Not anymore. I hide what I am carrying.

We can return to those days. It will take the same kind of resolution and faith that we had 200 years ago.
