@Cycloptichorn,
They've been watching Dylan's Masked and Anonymous Cyclo.
The Obama Miracle is merely a natural outcome of the way you've been living.
When you base your political opinions on the promises of politicians to get your country to do something for you it was inevitable as events have proved.
Politics has then become a branch of the advertising industry. $1.5 billion I heard the invoice was for. Mainly for ads or other modes of persuasion.
Did you not notice that nobody ever mentions Vance Packard anymore? It's as if he's an un-person. And it's all in there with 50 years of technics added on which is to say state of the art. As is the case with the other side. Disenchantment can be quickly organised, or mobilised, as they said our tankers driver had when they nearly shut the country down.
I mentioned somewhere having seen a video clip on our telly of a gunshop somewhere. A big one. The owner said there was a rush on and that was before voting got going. So I can well believe, now, that the reports on this thread are objective and thus a sensible person would take them into account and not seek to dismiss them with mere words. Obviously a stampede was due once the result was known.
One might shoot at an Inland Revenue collector under certain circumstances. I know an IR bailiff who has been shot at twice. Both times by farmers. I presume you know what a farmer is.
They are not intending shooting anyone. They are just saying that they might be ready to if the need arises. They have put their money on the risk they feel of that coming.
And farmers and suchlike are the only ones allowed guns here, to keep down vermin, and they are only itsy-bitsy shotguns.
Stumble It!
