I just saw that, great, I guess Brian didn’t know a hell of a lot after all!
Some people in our area were gun collectors, he and his wife in their 70’s. Three men came in during the night and beat them half to death and took their collection. Our sheriff actually found and arrested the guys.
Then this week within twenty-four hours two local banks were robbed...and BO says things are improving.

But they exempted 100 dollars, which would be 5 ounces.

I would be willing to bet that in 1933 most Americans did not own 5 ounces.

I would also bet that in 2009 most Americans don’t have 5 ounces.

Pretty sure I’d win both bets.
