Time for me to leave this country. Oh Canada here I come!!

Personally my life hasn't taken any drastic changes in the last 4 years as opposed to the previous 48 years. I tend to ignore the government as much as possible. Honestly it is hard for me to fathom why anyone would want to leave the US based on a 4/8 year presidential term. I guess alot of people have had a dramatically different experience than me.

Texas...when I lived there my boss's dad was THEE Director of Board of Education and forever fought to get Federal funding for the schools and programs...no dice. TX does not ever want to be dependent on the Fed...for anything. I went to my first gun/military show at the Dallas Convention Center around 1996, my father a military enthusiast came down fom Wisconsin. He had lived in TX back in the early 60's in as much as I was born there. Anyhow, it took us 2 full days to go thru 900, yes 900+ 4x8 convention tables of every piece of armament know to man...rocket launchers to Tommy Guns...50 cals...hand grenades...even a working Gatling Gun...as we walked out after day 2 my dad said to me[U][I][B]..."Well if it ever comes down to a state leaving the country, I'll bet it's Texas first..."

[/B][/I][/U]I had never met so many gun owners and 2nd amendment types in my life...I even had a rep working for me who carried his .44 to work, at a brokerage firm, and insisted he had the right to with his concealed permit!

Anyhow, here in WNY pretty much the same, plenty of 'closet' gun and ammo hoarders, getting ready for the big event!!!

There's something rather unsettling about that statement...BUT,...there IS a bright side to THAT situation...being...

Now we all know these gun 'enthusiasts' (like Hell's Angels and Bandidos are 'just' fun lovin' motorcycle enthusiasts)..are you garden variety law abiding citizens,...so there's no worry that when the 'Big Event' happens,...they're not gonna go around shootin' unarmed harmless folks,....just other folks armed with weapons... THAT being,...the problem will solve itself when all the so called 'enthusiasts' shoot each other up right down to the last one standing...

All the gun nuts will be gone...and life can then go on....in peace...

YOU CAN OWN A ROCKET LAUNCHER in Texas???:w00t:..... Now THAT's MY kinda play toy... You can take out a whole CROWD of gun nuts in ONE SHOT!!!! :D

....OR,....the building they're all hiding in.... lol...
