LOL, my poor brother and his crazy wingnut brother in law staying with him.

[Bonhomme Richard]

Understand my brother leans right but his BIL is a whacked out (my brother used that word) wingnut convinced the world as we know it is coming to an end. His views are not based on any religion but more from the crazy emails he reads.
He is staying with my brother because he broke his foot and lives alone...no wonder, so he moved into my brothers for a few days. My brother says all he does is read and forward emails and listens to right wing lectures on youtube. Currently he is focused on Obabma destroying the coal industry.

Gun wise he is always loaded for bear and I would bet he has them all with him.
He tells my brother that he is going to get a ham radio so he can talk to his son when the world ends. He is going to get a permit for one.

LOL, I told my brother to ask him why, if the world and government was going to end, would he need a permit. Is the government going to cease to exist except for those that check for ham radio permits? His head will explode.

1. Well the Reagan Administration did insist that mail delivery would continue after a nuclear

holocaust, so it's only natural to assume that ham radio permits will still be required.

5. Yes but...

In Bush II, the Post Office became privatized, so mail delivery will most likely stop since it won't be making enough to keep it open.

2. Wouldn't your brother's

bro-in-law also be your bro-in-law and where is the bro-in-law's wife. Would she not be your sister ?

Anyway, I'd tell the guy that as long as he is staying in my house, he has to quell the nuttery. At least while I was around.
If he calls "free speech" and refuses to quell or leave, I would leave a steamer in his chair every time he gets up and say "hey dude,
freedom of expression".

7. I took it

the op's brother is married to this rw guy's sister

3. That is like a one-liner: "I was going to become a Libertarian but the Government wouldn't give me

a permit."

[Bonhomme Richard]

4. He has always been extreme. He also.....

is now a crazed health food nut and takes all kind of pills/vitamins to keep him healthy. The bottom line is, and my brother said it, that he is obsessive/compulsive. He was married twice and both left him. I actually feel sorry for the guy though he is real close to the edge.
This guy used to send me all the wild emails until finally I told him not to send me that crap anymore in that language and it worked.
My brothers wife is my sister in law but I am not sure if her brother is a brother in law to me.
LOL, least I won't admit he is.
