Record gun sales sweep nation

[spidey07]

Well at least Obama is spurring one segment of the economy. With his and the Dems stance it isn't surprising. I can personally attest to this - went to the store today and folks were carrying out 1000s of rounds and the most popular choices were the "assault rifle". People weren't there to look. They were there to BUY, and buy they did. The guy I normally go to at the store said it simply - "I've never seen anything like this".

"Franklin Gun Shop outside Nashville, Tenn., sold more than 70 guns on Tuesday, making it the biggest sales day since the shop opened eight years ago. Guns & Gear in Cheyenne, Wyo., also set a one-day sales record on Tuesday, only to break that mark on Wednesday."

Did you pick a random kitchen object implying that consumer confidence is rising, or is there a joke that I'm missing?

The Obama Satellite already controls your thoughts. Don't worry about it.

LOL! I see what you did there.

I love the Dem responses - "oh, no...we don't agree with restrictions. But we should restrict things." Only time will tell but better safe than sorry.

Wow, now I need a gun to protect me from the lunatics who though it necessary to buy an assault rifle because Barack Obama was elected.

Is Gold next?

Sales of NO BAMA brand aerosol Negro Repellent have also skyrocketed.

And in other News of the Stupid, hundreds of thousands of adult Americans still think Obama is a secret muslim, while millions more cling to the belief that the earth is 4,000 years old.

Finally, after eight LOOOOOONG years of a mountain of nationally disseminated evidence to the contrary, 22% of our electorate still think the Prez is doing a heckuva job, Bushie!

I know several people who have considered getting a gun after Obama was elected. Sure it seems silly at first, but at the same time, with Obama supporting taking money from the hard workign and giving to the lazy why wouldn't someone who has worked hard to get where they are at least consider getting a weapons to defend what they have earned? Whether you believe Obama's election is the begging of the end for out country (like 1/2 the people I work with do) or not its still doesn't hurt to be sure. Certainlly his election will cause a serious mix up of the social order, and when you are on top there really ain't much anywhere to go but down.

EDIT: i see the fun shops are located in Tennessee, same place I am in, maybe people in other places are more optimistic about Obama's presidency, but here they sure as heck aren't.

Wow. I suspect most(probably All) of those people will be benefitting, not needing to "Defend" what they've earned.

Worst of all are those quadroons and octoroon's and other such mullatto-Obama types that want nothing more than to sneak into your double wide and ravage your fat assed, dim witted, Brittney Spears wannabe daughter Lurleen.

Can I interest you in a moat? It's a well known fact that negroes can't swim.

You don't have to like Obama, but honestly this nonsense is the conservative equivalent of liberals promising to move to Canada. I seriously doubt Obama is going to take the guns OR the money from the people who are participating in this paranoid exercise, and while it might not "hurt to be sure", that doesn't make this kind of nonsense any less ridiculous.

Ok, I'll bite.

Let's just accept that Obama is going to "take away money from the hard working and giving to the lazy" for a moment. How exactly do guns come into play here? Are you going to gun down the IRS when they levy your accounts and take your money if you resist?

First of all, you are an asswipe for hoping that hundreds of thousands of people kill themselves because they made a purchase. I thought we were supposed to stimulated the economy and spend, what do you give a fuck what they buy?

Secondly, these people are not going to the store to buy murder weapons. They are collectors and enthusiasts very aware of the possibility of another assault weapon ban coming down.

Personally, I'll wait until legislation is on the table.

I think normal people should be entitled to own pretty much any weapon they want. No tanks or rocket launchers or anything, but anything within reason (including semi-automatic "assault weapons"). That said, I think there should be a test as to whether or not your are too stupid/crazy to own a weapon designed for killing people. And anybody who bought a gun because Obama was elected would fail that test, big time. Gun folks are always fond of saying that gun ownership is not a problem if you have responsible gun owners, and nothing demonstrates a lack of responsibility better than a willingness to buy into some paranoid theory like this. After all, these folks are now well armed and (apparently) pretty easily fooled into believing anything. THAT is not a combination I want to see too often.

Are you calling people who make less than $250,000/year lazy?

I know a lot of teachers, nurses, firefighters and police officers who would disagree with you.

You can't imagine how deep self hate runs and how terrified people are of themselves. These poor fools are so full of hate they're sure Obama is out to get them in the same way. The monster of the Id is coming your way.

And that would seem to be a much more rational approach to this issue than that displayed by the folks rushing to the store before Obama even sets foot in the White House.

But guns ARE weapons designed primarily to kill, let's not pretend it's like collecting baseball cards.
