Un-Liberaled Woman

So here’s this interview with the “controversial” dealership owner from Missouri whose latest truck dealership offering is that with every truck purchase, they get a rebate to a local gun dealer for an AK-47. (via The God Blog) Of course, the liberal elitist reporter advocate against anything not on the Upper East side of Manhattan, lays into the owner about how it’s not necessary for people to own AK-47s. The dealership owner comes back with some awesome retorts:

Like the guy said, they’re not loading up illegal guns in the back seat as people drive the trucks off the lot. No, they have to go through legal means to get the guns in the first place. As to the type of gun that argument is irrelevant. It’s the right to bear arms, not the right to bear only a particular defense choice decided by liberal elitists. A bullet is still a piece of hot metal discharged out of a metal gun, no matter the type of gun being used. Some just make the bullets go faster and more of them when it comes to protecting yourself, your family and home. Plus some just look more badass, and why argue with that! (KIDDING!!! Awww- oh don’t want to offend any nambie-pambies)

My husband and I went down to North Carolina to visit some friends who were stationed there with the military. Being military folk, they happen to have a gun collection. I got a couple pics of course with their AK-47. (Just in case, there were no bullets and the safety was on, so no danger was posed.)

BTW, nothing says badass than living vicariously through our military families for at least two minutes of heaven posing with heavy artillery.

Anyposer, after our visit my husband and I were discussing whether there was a lot of crime around their area just because it’s a known military area and that if we were criminals we would know not to mess around because it’d probably not end well in favor of the criminal activity. Then sure enough the next day we heard a report on the radio about a burglar that got shot breaking into the house of a military family who protected themselves by shooting the burglar.

People in urban areas forget what it’s like living in rural or small-town America. The police aren’t always available and no matter how great they are, like the dealership owner points out, sometimes you only have seconds to defend yourself – not enough time to even dial 911 let alone wait for them. So to the reporter and those like her who say they understand the plight of 2nd amendment, do yourself a favor and listen before talking. You might learn something!  If you’re allowed to drive in the limo of your choice, then folks should be able to choose the gun of their choice to protect themselves when done through legal channels.
