If the nut cases in the Brady bunch and Obama have their way, the people in the U.S. will be disarmed.

    Mike, your comment in yesterdays quotes about democracy being two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner was really good. Sorry that I didn't have a chance to reply yesterday.

    We hold this truth to be absolute, and self evident. Only slaves and otherwise mentally / morally deficient patrons of the statist theocracy would disagree.
