Are you a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican?
Question: How do you tell the difference between Democrats, Republicans and Southern Republicans?
The answer can be found by posing the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock cal 40, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.
What do you do?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Democrat's Answer:
- Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
- Does the man look poor! Or oppressed?
- Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
- Could we run away?
- What does my wife think?
- What about the kids?
- Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
- What does the law say about this situation?
- Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?
- Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?
- Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
- Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
- If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me?
- Should I call 9-1-1?
- Why is this street so deserted?
- We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
- This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for few days and try to come to a consensus.
- I could shoot in the air and maybe scare him off but that may be interpreted as some sort of torture.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Republican's Answer:
BANG!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Southern Republican's Answer:
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click.....(sounds of reloading).
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click
Daughter: "Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points that I bought you for your birthday?"
"You are carrying a Glock cal 40, and you are an expert shot"
Umm, if you have this weapon on you, ready to fire, I think you can rule out 'Democrat' as a choice.
Your tag line "(MOONBAT conservatives are those who would rather lose to a liberal than support a moderate)" is dead on and needs serious consideration by many on this forum who gain pleasure by being "right" rather than effective.

There are even 30 round mags available at gun shows now!
Hooo Weee!
Eaker has one. Or more, I don't know.
The correct answer is "Big Damn Hero, Sir!"
;o) you can't take the sky from meeeee
I appreciate your thoughts in post 62, but I think I've brokered a truce on this thread. On other threads, I would welcome your support.

Possibly misguided?
You should get a prize...you have posts responding to the original cohesive topic that was presented in the article, reactionary posts from failure to read the article, and a general melee of partisan infighting ALL IN ONE THREAD! Plus, I'm YELLING! And I usually don't YELL!
You sir, are a genius! Three cheers to you! :P
Tell it to the pro-lifers.
You guys seem to think there's something wrong with guys on your own side pointing out how two-faced you are.
I have another Couric answer: "Some say that you shot an unarmed person, that there was no need for lethal force, and an independent NBC poll seems to agree with that..."
Republican answer: "BANG!"
Post # 71 is for you, too.
BTW...you move up to "god" status in my book if there is a ZOT on this thread and if we get any Kournikova or Zeta-Jones references and pics. Just thought I'd let you know...for your own good.
Yeah...that tagline is a real "truce broker."
You forgot he plagerized it. This is an old post.
"My Glock 40 (G22) holds 15 rounds in the magazine."
16, counting the one in the chamber!
Why did you have to ruin it for me? :(
I was reading this to my kids. My son (in the Army Reserves of which I'm very proud) pantomined his answer before I finished reading the RAT position.
My son is a southern republican!
Yes, along with 9 shellcases, 9 primers and 9 charges of powder.
Bullets are to cartridges as cement is to concrete or flour is to bread..................etceteras. Probably best to describe the entire assembly, rather than a component.
