My b-day is the 5th. I hope I get the president I put on my list.  ::)

Well happy b-day & I'm sure the president will be on one kind of list or another depending on the outcome! I always keep a spare list handy - it's called the sh_t list! Seems to fill up quickest too.  :)

Unfortunately, I am going to take my "bitter gun owner" sticker off the truck for fear of vandals,
If McCain wins, angry BHO protestors may retaliate on my innocent truck. If BHO wins, the civilian security force may retaliate against my innocent truck.

I'm going to lay low and pray nothing happens (violently). But, I will be at Def-Con 1 for sure.

Especially, in FL, its a swing state again, and the BHO sign holders are on every other corner.

We had a side rifle match after the last USPSA competition for the year yesterday, and I considered it a 120 round reliability test for my EBR. Will toss it in the trunk with a few mags this week just in case. Not usually that paranoid as my threat profile is pretty low, but it may be a new world on the fifth.... :o

I usually lean toward moderate when this type of thing comes along.  However, as an old Boy Scout I still like to Be Prepared.  When Y2K was all the hype we spent a little extra time, and bought a few extra groceries, made sure the fuel tanks were full, and ran the generator just to make sure it was ready.  As of today I am not planning anything drastic, but we need to grocery shop anyway, the fuel tanks are full, my winter emergency gear is already in the vehicles along with my hunting gear (survival and first aid pack), and I will probably through the three gun gear in the back seat of the pick up just because I can.

Not planning anything overboard, but I would rather have the stuff ready if needed than get caught off guard.  Like the old saying goes - What is the only gun that will not work for self defense?  They one you don't carry.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

m58, well put!

As a student of riots — I've been lucky enough to have been through several of the largest U.S. urban riots as a journalist...been beaten, gassed, arrested, etc...learned a lot — I've seen lots of people stupidly walk into something they could have easily avoided.

Not crazy about being away from home base in sketchy times, but filming schedules are what they are...lots of other people's money committed to very tight time frames. I'll go to the Ruger SR9 for the extra capacity, probably the Vang 870 with slugs/TAPS for paranoia insurance.

Yep.. we have friends that are being called out to prepare for them. That is what they have been trained for.. .but was always hoping they wouldn't have to use that training.
