I overheard some beard-beerbelly-baseball-cap type at the Mall talking "revolution".
Over the gun issue. (if there is one...) He was waiting outside the sporting goods store for it to open up. To buy some more guns, no doubt. God save me from the gun crazies...

3. Well, these dipshits are driving up the cost of ammo.

Getting to be a guy can't go to the range and blast some paper targets without dropping $50+. Or so say my co-workers. They aren't the revolutionary types. Just guys that like to shoot guns. For the record, so do I, although I do not own a gun currently.

4. You know what's funny? You only have two trigger fingers.
I can understand having a few guns if one is in fear of an uprising, race war, Armageddon, apocalypse...whatever. :eyes:

But to have a cache of guns just seems silly. A few guns for all seasons, maybe:

Shotgun.

Proper sidearm (pistol).

Backup pistol.

Long range gun (hunting, zombie termination, etc).

Seems to me it should be about ammo, clips and maintenance gear as far as stockpiling.

My dad collected guns, but he only had gear to use a handful.

8. I'll bet the really paranoid are buying reloaders and powder.
Because honestly, if the zombie invasion lasts more than 6 months, you're going to run out of everything but spent brass.

5. What happened to all of their "America; Love it or leave it" bullshit?
If it's not a white guy in charge, it's not really America? Is that it? :eyes:
