When deer hunting season opens this weekend, Wisconsin’s poor deer hunters are going to be at even more of a disadvantage than usual in their annual attempt to match wits with highly intelligent animals.
This year, deer hunters are going to be burdened by carrying heaping armloads of guns into the woods with them.
Deer hunters and other gun lovers have been absolutely terrified ever since Nov. 4 that President-elect Barack Obama is going to swoop down on their homes and confiscate all their guns.
In a panic, thousands of gun owners have raced to their nearest gun dealers to stock up on handguns, semi-automatic assault weapons and enough ammo to level the entire state of Wisconsin.
One gun dealer called Obama and Vice President-elect Joe Biden “the most anti-gun people ever to be in the White House.”
Golly, you’d think the late President Lincoln would have been pretty anti-gun. Certainly, his widow sitting next to him at the theater wasn’t a real big fan.
In the first two weeks of November, gun sales and background checks nearly doubled in Wisconsin compared with the same period a year earlier when scary Democrats weren’t being elected. What comes through from these stories is just the opposite of the image gun owners want to project—that they are tough guys ready to shoot it out with any wild thing—man or beast—who crosses their path.
Instead, it turns out gun owners are big scaredy cats.
A majority of us were dancing in the streets celebrating a historic new direction for our country after pointless war abroad and economic disaster at home. But, for gun owners, their first thought was heart-pounding terror that they might not have enough guns and ammo to fend off all the demons that keep them awake at night.
It sort of proves the point Obama once made in an off-hand remark when he said small-town people who feel powerless in our country “cling” to their guns. The National Rifle Association itself was the first to celebrate the clinging phenomenon in a famous bumper sticker about prying guns from “cold, dead fingers.”
If you live in constant fear that someone is going to take all your guns away, you aren’t going to be foolish enough to leave any of them at home when you go up north to hunt deer this year, are you? That’s just what Barack Obama and Joe Biden want you to do.
While your wives are out getting drunk and tucking dollar bills into the g-strings of Chippendales, the Democrats are going to sneak in and clean out your entire arsenals. Gun owners still wake up trembling with fear, remembering the 10 horrible years after 1994 when semiautomatic assault weapons were banned in this country. Not only were assault weapons banned, but so were pistol grips, flash suppressors and bayonet mounts that could be used to convert hunting rifles into military assault weapons.
For 10 long years, gun owners lived in constant fear that godless hordes would attack their homes and get in close enough for hand-to-hand combat at a time when law-biding citizens were forbidden to buy bayonet mounts. President George Bush allowed the ban to expire in 2004 so Vice President Dick Cheney and other hunters in America would once again have the freedom to use any weapons they wanted to shoot their friends.
Actually, President-elect Obama, like most other Democrats, has always proclaimed his support for the Second Amendment and the rights of hunters and other law-abiding Americans to buy, own and use guns. But the gun lobby considers any politician an enemy unless he supports arming every American, drunk or sober, sane or insane. Let the chips—and the bodies—fall where they may.
That’s why really cautious deer hunters are going to be lugging every weapon they can carry into the woods with them. We hope no one drops one on his foot. We wouldn’t want anyone to get hurt by a gun.
Since the election I’m also preparing.
My Colt AR-15 (LE6920) arrived last night.
Wisconsin doesn’t have CCW, but I’m contacting my state reps. on both CCW and the “Castle Law”.
Joining the NRA as well.
Your list looks GREAT, but ... I don’t see buying ammo on your list? Without ammo you got a bunch of expensive clubs; which reminds me I better run out and get ammo for my new Colt.
Sound like her in how she speaks, or her values?
Both. And up there it isn't about "Party" (except in the non-political sense), but about being left alone to do as one sees fit--within the bounds of common decency.
What do you expect to come out of Madistan???? This is par for the course there.
Pointless war abroad. Wow, this guy really does take a provincial view of his world.
It sort of proves the point Obama once made in an off-hand remark when he said small-town people who feel powerless in our country “cling” to their guns.

You know, if clinging to their guns, symbolically or practically, makes someone feel better, why would you want to take that away from them? There hasn't been real discrimination in this country for decades. Yet many still believe there is. They "cling" to this belief for a variety of reasons. Would this "enlightened" person make such a cold, insensitive remark to them? Ha.
Good luck in finding some. The election of Hussein has started the largest ammo/gun buying rampage ever known in the history of the U.S.
About 3 hours ago I had a guy drive 150 miles one way in a snowstorm to purchase a Bushie AR-15 I had advertised in the paper. He told me that the gun manufacturers are back-ordered 16 weeks on similar weapons. 4 months! On the phone with Bushmaster yesterday and they are running 4 weeks backorder (minimum) on magazines alone.
Maybe Junior Senator Hussein isn't aware that he is already boosting the economy.
Just punch him in the mouth? I’d break every bone in his filthy body!
Why Cindy, are you implying he might not have aggreed with Prop.8?
It’s a shame this author’s mother wasn’t a sincere adherent to Planned Parenthood. Joel fills out a suit as well as his Gawd - zero.
Restrict gun buying? If that is all he does, I’ll consider us lucky. More likely, we will see registration, masive taxation, criminalization of ownership, and maybe even a full ban. Seriously.
They sound like decent people over there.
“bayonet mounts that could be used to convert hunting rifles into military assault weapons.”
What, haven’t you heard of the full-auto bayonet mount? Just attach it to the barrel, and presto chango, you have a full auto machine gun!
/Yes, anti-gunners are morons.
I wonder how this poor excuse for a homo sapian will feel about hunters when his yard is overrun by deer and he has regular encounters between a buck and his bumper.
I WILL!!!
Actually, in Pittsburgh, everyone should start carrying all of his guns around so he can be sure to know within 24 hours if one has been stolen!
I mean, look at the resemblance here:
McNally hasn’t had sex in decades. That explains this jealous hissy-fit disguised as “News.”
What about we women that’ll be in the field this week? I don’t have time for strip clubs; I’ve got food to put on the table. I’ll be doing a drive with my brothers Thanksgiving afternoon while McNally naps off his turkey dinner. ;)
That wasn’t listed, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t on the list;-)
Cabela’s
JOEL MCNALLY is a smarmy scumbag fag.
