The reason I've stocked up on ammo recently is due to the meltdown in Mexico, which is right next door to those of us in Texas. Maybe you guys haven't been keeping up, but Mexico's imploding. Thousands of drug-related murders in the border cities. When it spills over into Texas, I won't be unarmed.
Gun sales are booming and the media says it's the economy but I think it may be people are worried they won't be able to buy one if Obama is elected and he and a Democrat Congress change the gun laws, so they are buying them now while they still can. I know I've been thinking about it --- that and surgery that isn't to correct a life threatening illness. I figure I'm going to need cataract surgery within the next two years so maybe I better have it done before Inauguration Day.
Here's an article that says it's tied to the economy not Obama. Still...
my dad just recently added three more handguns and is looking at a couple of rifles to add to his already large collection not for the reason of economy, but because of Obama's stance on guns.
As a gun owner, I can say you guys are completely retarded. The political will does not exist to do any drastic anti-gun legislation, even if the dems pick up 5 or 6 seats in the senate.
now you tell us after looking into this link. They did a door to door gun confiscation in new Orleans after Katrina of law abiding citizens.
Hate to break it to the right wingers but the chance of martial law and a gun grab is 100% greater under either Bush or McCain than under ANY Democrat. These are the people who like violating the Constitution, not any Democrats, who respect the law. The neocons have had a total disregard for the law.
They wouldnt necessarily take your guns, but they would make sure you are outgunned, courtesy of Blackwater USA. And any chance of using that gun to defend yourself or your property would result in you being cut to ribbons.
Think it cant happen? Do so at your own peril.
Of course, the sheep who vote Republican cannot comprehend this, as Rush Limbaugh/Glenn Beck/Sean Hannity wont admit to this

Why do way too many people in the US get wood when it comes to owning a gun?
The violent crime in Canada and most countries in Europe does not even come close to being as bad as the USA. Why? Gun laws that make sense.
Obama is going to come after the guns of the thugs and drug dealers, not after Joe Hunter, ok?
Wake up cons, freaking eh.

Switzerland has compulsory gun ownership for military age males, yet it has a far lower murder rate than the U.S.

How is Obama going to disarm thugs and drug dealers?

Same thing with Israel.
It's not the guns that kill. It's the culture.
God forbid we should become like the Swiss, right. Can you imagine living in a country like that?
