Easier to Get a Lethal Weapon in the US than to Get Food

Separated from the Charleston thread because, obvious.

I reiterate and paraphrase one of the responses: Please direct me to the drive thru where I can buy a value meal gun for a dollar. Not to mention, what about the lethal weapons that surround the food in your kitchen?

Whenever Obama says "Let me be clear", whatever he say next will be a lie.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Dollar Store/Dollar General, your local hardware store, and many other retail outlets sell lethal weapons for less than the cost of a Value Meal entree (tax not included).

Plus there are no nosy background checks - not even at those yard sales where so many FTF sales take place.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

What, is there a government program (local, state or federal) that gives me a firearm subsidized by others. If so, I want mine!!!
