Bitterly clinging to their guns and religion.
Maybe Obama can calm the storm...
Cheers!

I would suspect there's a lot of veteran non-gun-owners out there who would like, if they have to get one, to get one with which they are already intimately familiar.

Are these people bying the guns in anticipation of the comong of Gustav or the predicted riots when Obambi loses the election. Be safe, do it for either reason.

LOL ...
I never understood why people buy ammo when an emergency shows up ... don’t they have stock

If Obambi doesn’t pull off the great swindle, than I expect urban areas and college campuses will be “no go” zones for any one who “looks” like they may have not voted for the Glorious One.

Maybe Obama can calm the storm... Only if he can throw billions of our tax dollars at it.
I feel safe. I stocked up on 1500 rounds of 60 grain surplus rounds last year, along with 10 additionaal 20 round mags. The AR15 is a good middle range defense weapon.

"After the nightmare that was Katrina I think it would be unwise for anyone to assume the state, local or federal government could guarantee his or her personal safety during a natural disaster." Always a mistake to depend on the Goobbbermint.

I’ve got my Katrina rifle ready also....heck, I bought two AR-15’s right before the last cane rolled through.
I’d rather have and not need....

I don’t know why they are buying guns and ammo, since if this turns into another Katrina event the feds will go door to door and confiscate all guns again.

Also people that buy AR-15's are very different than your typical handgun/shotgun owner and are more likely to resist violently.

AR15s and .223 ammo.
Hmmm, good choice for an all-rounder.
Nothing beats a good 12g for keeping vermin off the porch, though.

Hey, it works well on the Mrs.
“Honey, there is a storm coming. I need to go down to the gun shop and get some more ammo.”
“Fine, but don’t you go seeing any orphan gun in the rack and bring it home claiming we can give it a good home. We got enough stray calibers to stock up on as it is now.””

I still haven’t figured out the thing about plywood. They live in a storm center and every season, they have to buy more plywood. Wouldn’t workable shutters on these houses save hundreds of dollars a year?

You’re better off with about two hundred rounds you have and 15 hundred empty cartridge cases that show evidence you practiced.
