The harder liberals push gun control, the harder gun buyers push back with their wallets. Its a losing proposition for fringe lunatic liberals who would strip away your God given rights.

Isn’t that the one you accidently dropped in the lake on your last fishing trip? A tragedy that.

I wish the NRA would give Obama the gun promoter of the year award, announce it, show a pretty little plaque, splash it all over the news.

Recalling the refrain line from the song "Big Yellow Taxi"...

You don't know what you have til it's gone

There is some truth to that.

Fear of extra-constitutional gun legislation has not only increased the number of guns owned by gun owners, it has increased the numbers of gun owners. One suspects that lot of folks were not even considering ownership of a firearm made the jump when over-bearing laws looked like a possibility.

And, as the gun control (and even "confiscation") hysteria grows, so do gun sales.

Human nature? Priceless!

The American people aren’t arming up because they fear a gun ban, they are arming up because they fear they will soon be at war with their government.

The American people realize that their government is going out of control, and they are preparing for it.
