> The real reason is because Hussein has NOT shown his vault birth certificate and the pending SCOTUS lawsuits!!!

Sounds like a good reason to me: you are about to be “ruled” by His Excellency and you still haven’t been given the decency of knowing whether he’s even entitled to “rule” you.

It is an astonishing situation, to say the least...

Actually, I’m a Freemason — does that help?

It works for me. (grin)

What these people are doing is trying to help the economy. They are spreading the wealth around and getting the money into circulation - Nothing wrong with that.

This year, we made a decision to stop buying Christmas presents for nearly everyone except the son and his wife: they will get ammunition for their shooting irons. I bought myself a Remington 870 Express Tactical along with a Vang large-head safety to go on it, got some extra parts, cleaning supplies, etc, and that is pretty much the sum total of our end-of-the-year spending. Dollarwise, we probably dropped as much or more than we did last year, but it was far more selectively spent... with regards to both WHAT was bought and WHERE it was bought. Elections have many consequences, not just the ones that are anticipated.

After watching so many of our quondam "fellow Americans" happily condemn the nation to a B. Hussein Obama presidency, the wife and I have decided that since the nation has gotten its precious freakin' "change," we are going to take our ball - or more correctly, whatever part of the tattered little toy we still have left in our hands - and go home, leaving the masses to stampede Wal-Marts when they are not busy obsessing over sports and/or porn.

I don't give a rats a** that this POS is black or whatever. It's the fact that the libs have been trying to take away our weapons and finally might get what they want.

Why are we buying extra ammo? Here's my tin foil hat time. What if they start requiring I.D. to buy ammo? Even with unregistered weapons you could be tracked down. Call me paranoid but I like to consider myself prepared.

What does Obama's race, mixed such as it is, have to do with anything, especially gun and ammo sales? There was the increase in gun and ammo sales to Clinton and his stated plans, so it has nothing to do with "blackness" and everything to do with philosophy.

There are quite a few black men and women who, if elected, would not have generated gun sales. Quite the opposite, as they and their rhetoric would have been reassuring to those of us who believe in the Constitution and our capitalist economic system. Instead of gun and ammo sales booming, it would have been the stock market booming rather than its continual slide into oblivion.

A black man gets elected president and half the country dives for the panic room, buying up guns

Conservatives learned to deal with things like losing this election. The libs might not be able to deal if the Birth Certificate goes against them.

I bought all the things I need which I lost the last time a gun grabber was in the White House.

This clearly shows the difference between left and right. To the right, it is rational response to prepare for the worse. Much like the Katrina refuges, liberals think being a dependent, victim is rational.

I predict episodes of national anarchy like the LA riots. The effect of the Democrat induced depression hasn’t even hit yet. Americans will be unhappy being poor and hungry.

I’m prepared to defend my family and feed them for a month. Doesn’t sound nutty to me.

1. Guns don’t kill; ammunition kills
There are too many guns in circulation, and they are too long lived for gun control to ever be effective in the US.

On the other hand, banning the manufacture, importation and sale of centerfire pistol ammunition, except to the military and sworn peace officers, would likely be highly effective.

Since ammunition is a “consumable” and becomes unreliable with time, most would be removed from circulation fairly rapidly and the rest would be hoarded.

Lots of folks are “reloaders”, they better stock up on supplies while they still can.

“A black man gets elected president and half the country dives for the panic room, buying up guns and squirreling away supplies like fatalists awaiting the End of Days.”

I think it’s very likely that Obamachev will promote race based policies reducing whites to second class citizens. Whites have ever reason to be concerned.

My husband doesn’t reload anymore. We have a room full of equipment I'd like to pass on to you (but of course he won't agree). LOL!

Buy a 550 reloader. Trust me on this. You won’t regret it.

I know what you mean. My husband has a garage full of mining stuff that he will never use again and won’t get rid of any of it.

Let me know if you and your husband start reloading. I was asked to start a thread on tips and such.

Nothing quite like it when a lefthanded vulva with ears so totally misses the point.
