Shoot Johnny, the ammo should get cheaper; white men don't fear white women like they do black men.

Nah, it's like insurance and gasoline... price went up yesterday and won't come down for at least six months or without a congressional investigation. Hell, not even then!
Glad I built an AR now, cause the Clinton gun ban maybe returning, part deux! The closer we get to election day, the higher the prices will soar.
Hey... enterprising business opportunity:
1. Buy all the scary looking guns and ammo you can NOW.
2. Sell them the week before election. You could easily turn a 3-fold profit, maybe more. Don't forget the hi-cap mags!
Even if Romney takes it, you're likely to see at least a month-long period of sustained profits, due to the substantially low rate of Bubba's computer literacy, tendency for confirmational bias toward whispered innuendo and conspiracy theory, and politically-motivated hoarding in general.

I got rid of my black gun 3 years ago, it was a pre-ban early 80's Colt. Not into that crap anymore. I stopped by the shop I sold it to a couple weeks ago lookin' for other stuff and asked the fella what it was worth today and it is hella less. He said the reason was there are so many 'good' copies out there.. Certain Colts hold value, especially the 70's civilian(haha) models.

Well, it's a political thread, so by definition it's already screwed. Furthermore, given past Clinton history, it relevant... right up there with cigar smoke.
Do you think her regime will push the agenda developing as mentioned in this
(http://www.supertopo.com/climbers-forum/2610751/Wilderness-Management-Coming-to-Park-Near-You);
thread? And, incidentally, how would that compare to the burgeoning state-rights movements that wish to seize control back from the feds? Personally, I think having clear-cut federal regs often does better for the public freedom than what we'd likely see from local control of public lands. What I've seen from local land control often overlooks and discriminates against user groups of which it is ignorant or biased against.
Ooh... 24 more posts and this thread could be legendary.

hat loony nazi Rand Paul will make the biggest waves...he may sneak in, like Hitler did
While I agree he is loony, he is no Nazi. He's more like an isolationist from the 1930's.

"He's more like an isolationist from the 1930's."
Well, that would be interesting to see the GOP tap a candidate with isolationist tendencies, given their longstanding preference for imperialism & world dominance over the last few decades, wouldn't it?

He'd round up every obese bureaucrat who is eyeing a 40 year public pension and lock them in barbed-wire "Fat Camps" ....where they'd lose that fat sweating on treadmills 18 hours a day
GOOD!
Hook em up to a generator or a water pump and get some productive work out of em!

Yes, we all know government never does anything well, and by extension, government employees are worthless and lazy. We should flog them too.

Why even bother having a stoopid election!
I agree.. It's not like we get to choose who will be president anyway... unless you count choosing between two folks selected by money.

Dear Wbraun! It was wonderful for you to post the media source for your thoughts on this thread:
http://www.supertopo.com/climbing/thread.php?topic_id=2610376&tn=140
Per another pundits investigation of your souce, perhaps you could find a less insane spot to draw conclusions from?
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2013/02/05/hillary-clinton-profile-of-imperial-arrogance-and-lawlessness/
This group is a hotbed of rightwing conspiracy nonsense. Figures.
Southern Poverty Law Center:
Veterans Today (VT) is a website that bills itself as a “military veterans and foreign affairs journal.” And, indeed, many of its contributors are military veterans or veterans’ advocates from across the political spectrum. VT also offers some information about veterans’ benefits (lifted from the Veterans’ Administration) and links to home and other loans for vets.
But start reading the posts, and you’ll find something else entirely: myriad claims that there was a conspiracy behind 9/11 (Israel orchestrated it, in cahoots with the American government), that the American government is a puppet (of Israel), that the Holocaust never happened or was greatly exaggerated (Jews made it up to manipulate non-Jews), and, most recently, that Julian Assange, the man behind Wikileaks, is a pawn (of Israel).
Notice a theme?
Gordon Duff, the senior editor and chairman of the board at VT, is a prolific proponent of these anti-Israel conspiracy theories, including the Wikileaks claims. Though he does occasionally write on issues and policies that directly affect American veterans (he claims to be a Marine Vietnam veteran), most of his ammo is reserved for churning out articles that claim 9/11 was a U.S./Israel conspiracy and that Israel controls the U.S. government. According to Duff and VT contributors like author and attorney Jeff Gates, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a civil rights watchdog group, and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), a lobbying group, are Zionist-controlled fronts for Israeli intelligence operations.
In December, Duff claimed that “insiders at the ADL” admitted that Israel was behind Wikileaks, perhaps a slam at an ADL piece a few days earlier. In that article, the ADL pointed out that many of the conspiracy theories about Israel and Wikileaks “are being promulgated by … anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist” Gordon Duff. Marilyn Mayo, a director at the ADL Center on Extremism, told Hatewatch that Duff did not speak to anyone at the ADL and, like other conspiracy theorists, he “makes information up and presents it as the truth.” Indeed, Duff claimed that the ADL website was “loading up with warnings and attacks” defending Wikileaks and Assange. But the ADL’s website claims nothing of the sort and Duff provides no evidence that the “ADL source” he says he is quoting actually exists.
