I'm sure by now it's no news that gun shops across the nation are experiencing sales the likes of which have never before been seen. Even online retailers cant keep ammunition and mags in stock for very long.

According to en Agger at the University of Texas this isnt because people feel another Clinton style ban or worse is imminent. It's not because of Obamas record of wanting to ban all semi-autos or tax ammunition 500%.

It's because you're all racist.


"Why are white people buying assault weapons?" said Ben Agger, a sociology professor at the University of Texas at Arlington who wrote a book about the Virginia Tech slayings. "I almost hate to say it, but there is a deep-seated fear of the armed black man, because Obama now commands the military and other instruments of the justice system. They are afraid Obama will exact retribution for the very deep-seated legacy of slavery."

Granted I havent gotten my "American Cracker" newsletter since I moved so I am unaware of a great conspiracy to use a politicians history and the reality of past legislation as a cover excuse for the real reason I'm buying would-be banned items. I'm racist and fear Obama will use the now "black man's army" (well, half black anyway) to exact revenge on whitey.

I think Ben Agger needs a solid slap across the face.

I guess I need to spend the rest of the day writing letters to all the non-white people I've helped get pistol permits, taken shooting and gotten into shooting sports and tell them the real excuse I helped them get armed and trained is that I secretly want to have to defend myself against them in an race-war.

This is why I hate academia.

"Ivory Tower" types like that usually stir up controversy to bring attention for their scholarly writings, which are often a requirement to keep their jobs since it brings in research funding. No publicity = no job.
Number two, those people generally are classic "airheads" who have a lot of books smarts but no social skills, and more often than not, have a "token black friend." I once studied under a psychology professor at the University of Central Florida who waxed poetic about her "groundbreaking" work on racism and how she "spent all of her time" in the black community. Ironically enough, she wouldn't go to the "hood" by her self and was very afraid of black students. Hmm...

Yea, you can drag an AK through the dirt and mud all day long, and it will still fire, try that with an AR-15 or M-16, without cleaning it first, trust me I know.
P.S. I still want to get an AR-15 for myself, because I can.......



If you can settle for a later M-16. don't go for an AR-15. There are differences.

I'm not sure how good an AK is, never fired one, but I don't hear good stories about it being accurate unless the guy is less than a hundred yards away.

If you can get your hands on a SAR-21, do get it. I'm not sure what model of that rifle you'll get over where you are but its a good rifle. Uses an AK47 gas system.

More accurate than an M16 but definitely pricier. Heck, you won't miss with it unless you've never fired a gun in your life

and its heavy enough that recoil won't be a problem.

anyway its outer construction is so tough, it'll protect you from 9mm hits without shattering.

and there's one more important thing it can do that AR15 can't without messing its zeroing.

it can do a butt smack! and still keep its zeroing. hahahaha...

Investing in guns alone isn't gonna protect anyone from anyone who is determined to harm you.

Spend money on body armor, if its legal where you are, if not make one.
And most importantly, spend time on fire drills. Learn from some army friend or something.

An unruly mod is no more an army than a pile of construction material is a house. Discipline is key.

or alternatively...
you could all just throw away all things materialistic and be holy men or women.
Then the NWO won't be able to work on you coz your higher vibes would drive them away.

I'd prefer to settle for the latter.

In the former, you might end up killing a cop who is your neighbour's friend.

That quote is from one guy, and yet you use it to condemn all of academia. Which is kind of the same as that guy labeling all new gun owners as racist. See how generalisations work? You are guilty of the same offense as that guy - generalising.

Aaaah hypocrisy. Great stuff.

But if the act of having an assault rifle means the chances of needing it are greatly increased...

Not that I necessarily believe that, but using ridiculously oversimplified logic to sum up this issue is, well, silly.
