2010 Headlines could read ...

Change the city and country and you could have something like that by 2010 IF Barack Huseinn Obama is elected.

WOW!! :o What an arsenal.   An air gun (was it fuctional?) and 12 rounds of .22 (probably shorts) that he doesn't have any way to shoot.  He could have started world war III !!

The ammo was probably as old as we was, and in a sock in dresser.

If that happens, I'm going South of the border, to Central America.

If that happens you will see my picture in the post office. As in so many other countries the communists can kill me, but they will NEVER drive me from my country, They can kill a man but they can NEVER defeat a man who does not give up.
Actually you wil probably hear about Resistance only in whispered conversations.

Good point, but I have an inner Napolean itching to get out and since Cuba is supposed to have the best cigars...

VIVA LA RESISTANCE!!!!!  Need to refine my Spanish, if BHO gets elected with the open border extension, I'll need to be bilingual, not just the profanity parts but actual words and phrases. ::)

Can't gun owners just like, make Montana its own country or something? The Armed Territory of Montana. We'll post signs at the border and have a .0000001 crime rate. Just a thought. Coffee is starting to kick in.
