Who are you voting for, for President?

[Revere2]

Guns are selling all over the USA at an unprecedented rate. Ammunition is being bought as never before (by civilians). Prices are skyrocketing for it. Priced any lately? It is FLYING OFF THE SHELVES locally and internetwise too.  Still the buying continues even as familie's buying powers are eroded each and every day. If "I were king", and I knew that this was happening (and you can bet your life "they" do), I'd be freaking out. The aforementioned implies that the citizen's hairs are standing UP on the back of their necks. This also iimplies that the citizens don't trust those that they have chosen to represent them or the ones that their representatives chose to monetarily rape them nor do they trust choices that have been made "recently".

TBH it would be funny if obama does nothign. but then again unlike most investments. these would most liekly make a slight profit., no chance for loss

[Revere2]

Exactly. Plus there is no such thing as "loss" when "stocking up" to defend your home and family OR to go have some fun shooting.
But I DO think that it sends a powerful message to those "in power". The gun owning citizenry do NOT trust them in any shape, form, or fashion. The sheeple continue to nurse the teat and massage the scrotum of the government they hold dear and trust to protect and provide for them as same aforementioned government rapes and plunders their rights and bank accounts via any means necessary.

just when i think post could not possibly get stupider you guys surprise me.  buying ammo to change government policy...lay off the meth and moonshine.

"stupider"?, anyhoo, excuse my while i shoot my grammar nazi. that being done, im not buying ammo. jsut clips. i made some good money during the clinton years, and might again. or if not. worst thing is a slight profit. nothing wrong with that, unless someone is opposed to profits. lol

[frankieG]

check your spell check and dictionary - stupider is a word and gramatically correct.   what is not correct is thinking that buying ammo or magazines (which they are called and not "clips") will change policy. 

[shiznizbiz]

I didnt want to say it but frankies right. The words clip and magazine are not interchangable.  Its a pet peev of mine. 

[frankieG]

I didnt want to say it but frankies right. The words clip and magazine are not interchangable.  Its a pet peev of mine. 

mine too, a magazine is a store to hold ammunition or explosives.  a magazine depending on the munition is the size of a hockey rink or more.

ok now im lost.  I thought it went....ammo....then clip...then magazine.....then cache
Magazine being the little thing you put your ammo into so that it will feed into your weapon?  Maybe the military has led me wrong.

[frankieG]

meh don't worry about it...call it what ever you prefer

'zactly. but hey we killed off the last grammar nazi the twin had, so call it what you will

W   T   F....Die thread, Die!!!

[quiktaco]

Since this thread's been dead for a month now, I thought I'd bring it back with a little political update.

Obama has officially been voted in to the Presidency by the Electoral College.  Those votes will be counted early January (I think the 6th or 9th...something like that). 

Just to continue on a conversation, what is everyone doing to prepare for the upcoming changes?
going hog wild?
freaking out?
looking to God?
getting completely inspired?
building a militia?

[loki7714]

going hog wild!!! (Whatever that means )

Why Martin Luther King Was Republican
by  Frances Rice
08/16/2006

It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.

It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s.

During the civil rights era of the 1960s, Dr. King was fighting the Democrats who stood in the school house doors, turned skin-burning fire hoses on blacks and let loose vicious dogs. It was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who pushed to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools. President Eisenhower also appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Much is made of Democrat President Harry Truman's issuing an Executive Order in 1948 to desegregate the military. Not mentioned is the fact that it was Eisenhower who actually took action to effectively end segregation in the military.

Democrat President John F. Kennedy is lauded as a proponent of civil rights. However, Kennedy voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Act while he was a senator, as did Democrat Sen. Al Gore Sr. And after he became President, Kennedy was opposed to the 1963 March on Washington by Dr. King that was organized by A. Phillip Randolph, who was a black Republican. President Kennedy, through his brother Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy, had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated by the FBI on suspicion of being a Communist in order to undermine Dr. King.

In March of 1968, while referring to Dr. King's leaving Memphis, Tenn., after riots broke out where a teenager was killed, Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd (W.Va.), a former member of the Ku Klux Klan, called Dr. King a "trouble-maker" who starts trouble, but runs like a coward after trouble is ignited. A few weeks later, Dr. King returned to Memphis and was assassinated on April 4, 1968.

Given the circumstances of that era, it is understandable why Dr. King was a Republican. It was the Republicans who fought to free blacks from slavery and amended the Constitution to grant blacks freedom (13th Amendment), citizenship (14th Amendment) and the right to vote (15th Amendment). Republicans passed the civil rights laws of the 1860s, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Reconstruction Act of 1867 that was designed to establish a new government system in the Democrat-controlled South, one that was fair to blacks. Republicans also started the NAACP and affirmative action with Republican President Richard Nixon's 1969 Philadelphia Plan (crafted by black Republican Art Fletcher) that set the nation's fist goals and timetables. Although affirmative action now has been turned by the Democrats into an unfair quota system, affirmative action was begun by Nixon to counter the harm caused to blacks when Democrat President Woodrow Wilson in 1912 kicked all of the blacks out of federal government jobs.

Few black Americans know that it was Republicans who founded the Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Unknown also is the fact that Republican Sen. Everett Dirksen from Illinois was key to the passage of civil rights legislation in 1957, 1960, 1964 and 1965. Not mentioned in recent media stories about extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act is the fact that Dirksen wrote the language for the bill. Dirksen also crafted the language for the Civil Rights Act of 1968 which prohibited discrimination in housing. President Lyndon Johnson could not have achieved passage of civil rights legislation without the support of Republicans.

Critics of Republican Sen. Barry Goldwater, who ran for President against Johnson in 1964, ignore the fact that Goldwater wanted to force the Democrats in the South to stop passing discriminatory laws and thus end the need to continuously enact federal civil rights legislation.

Those who wrongly criticize Goldwater also ignore the fact that Johnson, in his 4,500 State of the Union Address delivered on Jan. 4, 1965, mentioned scores of topics for federal action, but only 35 words were devoted to civil rights. He did not mention one word about voting rights. Then in 1967, showing his anger with Dr. King's protest against the Vietnam War, Johnson referred to Dr. King as "that Homeboyus Africanus preacher."

Contrary to the false assertions by Democrats, the racist "Dixiecrats" did not all migrate to the Republican Party. "Dixiecrats" declared that they would rather vote for a "yellow dog" than vote for a Republican because the Republican Party was know as the party for blacks. Today, some of those "Dixiecrats" continue their political careers as Democrats, including Robert Byrd, who is well known for having been a "Keagle" in the Ku Klux Klan.

Another former "Dixiecrat" is former Democrat Sen. Ernest Hollings, who put up the Confederate flag over the state Capitol when he was the governor of South Carolina. There was no public outcry when Democrat Sen. Christopher Dodd praised Byrd as someone who would have been "a great senator for any moment," including the Civil War. Yet Democrats denounced then-Senate GOP leader Trent Lott for his remarks about Sen. Strom Thurmond (R.-S.C.). Thurmond was never in the Ku Klux Klan and defended blacks against lynching and the discriminatory poll taxes imposed on blacks by Democrats. If Byrd and Thurmond were alive during the Civil War, and Byrd had his way, Thurmond would have been lynched.

The 30-year odyssey of the South switching to the Republican Party began in the 1970s with President Richard Nixon's "Southern Strategy," which was an effort on the part of Nixon to get Christians in the South to stop voting for Democrats who did not share their values and were still discriminating against their fellow Christians who happened to be black. Georgia did not switch until 2002, and some Southern states, including Louisiana, are still controlled by Democrats.

Today, Democrats, in pursuit of their socialist agenda, are fighting to keep blacks poor, angry and voting for Democrats. Examples of how egregiously Democrats act to keep blacks in poverty are numerous.

After wrongly convincing black Americans that a minimum wage increase was a good thing, the Democrats on August 3 kept their promise and killed the minimum wage bill passed by House Republicans on July 29. The blockage of the minimum wage bill was the second time in as many years that Democrats stuck a legislative finger in the eye of black Americans. Senate Democrats on April 1, 2004, blocked passage of a bill to renew the 1996 welfare reform law that was pushed by Republicans and vetoed twice by President Clinton before he finally signed it. Since the welfare reform law expired in September 2002, Congress had passed six extensions, and the latest expired on June 30, 2004. Opposed by the Democrats are school choice opportunity scholarships that would help black children get out of failing schools and Social Security reform, even though blacks on average lose $10,000 in the current system because of a shorter life expectancy than whites (72.2 years for blacks vs. 77.5 years for whites).

Democrats have been running our inner-cities for the past 30 to 40 years, and blacks are still complaining about the same problems. More than $7 trillion dollars have been spent on poverty programs since Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty with little, if any, impact on poverty. Diabolically, every election cycle, Democrats blame Republicans for the deplorable conditions in the inner-cities, then incite blacks to cast a protest vote against Republicans.

In order to break the Democrats' stranglehold on the black vote and free black Americans from the Democrat Party's economic plantation, we must shed the light of truth on the Democrats. We must demonstrate that the Democrat Party policies of socialism and dependency on government handouts offer the pathway to poverty, while Republican Party principles of hard work, personal responsibility, getting a good education and ownership of homes and small businesses offer the pathway to prosperity.

[quiktaco]

What? Are you saying that Democrats are too dumb to understand these principles?

[quiktaco]

After quite some time with the majority of America having racial neutrality, the new president and his staff are some of the BIGGEST RACISTS.  Screw you Obama.  I know eventually you'll get what you deserve, you God hating, racist, scum.  You're going to destroy this country and everyone in it.  Way to go bringing back the racist 20th century.
