In the United States of America: recent studies are explaining a significant increase in gun sales over the last ten years, it is showing in increase in trend of growth of gun owner about nearly 50% of total population and that too more women's are arming themselves.

Are Americans in thinking of more “respectable” by owning a gun?
Are Americans scared?

Yes, they're scared of that creepy black guy in the White House and believe the lie that he's comin' to get their guns.

The gun dealers are laughing all the way to the bank.

Have you not heard? A Redneck Revolution, has been called if Obama gets re-elected.

It is all being strategically planned in a neighborhood near you.
When the sheet hits the fan, you better be able to protect your stuff!

A knife and a bat may work for a minute.


Actually it has to do with Hilary and the UN small arms treaty she signed.
Get them before they are gone.

And to think, it only took you one posting to say something as stupid as that. Whats the reason the numbers climbed during the Bush administration as well then?
