Former heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson was saved by religion - literally.

"They were discussing [how] Mike Tyson had to be murdered," gang member Shelby Henderson said yesterday about a conversation in 2000 among members of the vicious Cash Money Brothers.

Henderson, testifying in Brooklyn federal court, said the gang even saw Tyson a few months later and was ready to start shooting. But Henderson said he talked his buddy out of the killing because Tyson was a fellow Muslim.

Breaking up the Mob might not have been so smart, after all;)

Religion of peace, after all...still, I feel Tyson isn't much of anything religious.

You don’t suppose these muslim gangs would support anti-American terrorists do you, seeing as how they just want to protect their turf and sell drugs and provide law abiding liberal politicians with their hookers. You know, strive for the American dream of fincial success.

Not to worry!

I am TOTALLY self sufficient in weapons, ammo and reloading ability...

I can't imagine the need to ever buy anything else.

Hell - even my son, grandsons and soninlaw stopped "buying" a long time ago.
They just come by the house and "pick something up"......

You must have a big powder magazine.

"You must have a big powder magazine."

At my age -- and the fact I visit the range only once a month now --- I have MORE than enough of EVERYTHING....

Also -- very "substantial" numbers of rounds for all weapons have been pre-loaded and stored in appropriately marked ammo cans.....

For me to "run out" --- would require one hell of a protracted firefight, or a direct hit on my house!

In either event -- I'm hardly in shape to survive anyway!
