Fear
2008-11-15

Speaking with an acquaintance a day or two ago I was told that private gun dealers' sales have tripled since November 4th.
In the USA there is what can only e called a palpable fear across the land of gross violations of citizen's rights to keep and bear arms and that is what is driving arms sales.
I never watch the local news except the weather, but it has been confirmed by local TV. Arms sales are through the roof in advance and in anticipation of the crazies taking over the government.
Ultimately, people are rational and rational people respond to their fears, so this is a rather ( so far ) measured response to the coming confiscatory agenda by a leftist government.
The question for now is will this new federal government overreach concerning small arms?
If you have something to add, Fire Away!
