    Default The Ammo Shortage

    There is a huge ammo shortage going on in case no one else is aware of it. At Walmart the shelves are empty. They say that they just cant get any in.

    Bass Pro Shop sold out of 5000 rounds of 9mm, 2000 rounds of 40S&W, 2000 rounds of 22LR and 2000 rounds of 45acp in about 15 minutes of putting the ammo out. A salesman told me that some guy came in a month and half to 2 months ago and bought a pallet of 45acp and a pallet of 40 S&W.

    There are no gun shops or sporting goods stores around me that can keep any ammo in stock. Its all gone within 24 hours.

    The gun shows are selling out of ammo within 30 minutes to an hour here in the Los Angeles area, in Arizona and one of my ammo suppliers in Texas said the same thing is happening there.

    There is such a run on ammo that powder, primers and bullets are nearly impossible to find.

    The same thing is happening with guns. Particularly pistols and semiautomatic rifles. Display cases are emptied of pistols at local chains and Semiauto rifles are being bought up as quick as they hit the shelves.

    As I talk to people they are terrified of Obama and the Liberals so they are stocking up. Many are preparing for an all out civil war, and some even want it. They are also preparing for race riots that most seem to think is inevitable when Obamas economy finishes collapsing in another year by some estimates.

    All I know is its turning into a dangerous time for our country and it seems something has got to give. I hope civil war is not in our future but both sides seem to be pretty tense and the Liberals are gonna keep trying their best to destroy America. My friends that grew up in the Soviet Union cannot believe what is happening before their eyes. Republicans are a stroll to communisn/socialism and Democrats are in a sprint. They are of the opinion we are right on the edge of becoming another Soviet type nation.

    Its even worse now than it was then. The panic has spread. All the online stores where I used to buy ammo are all sold out with no back orders being taken.

    It's reasonable paranoia.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I hope all the ammo gets put to good use.
    When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.

    You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.

    Obama can't do anything on his own and most of this congress even voted to get rid of the assualt weapons ban. It is not reasonable, the feds aren't after your guns right now.

    Right now. Where it'll happen is when taxes and fees are instituted making ammo all but un-affordable. Then, with each "progressive" (read: Liberal fool) appointed to higher positions, more laws will be enacted to destroy some of the freedoms we now enjoy, however tenuous.

    Obama just nauseatingly poor judgment on those he appoints to high positions - look at the racist sexist pig he's named for the supreme court? Look at his choice for Secretary of state - Hell, his VP!!

    What is wrong with you to love his SC pick? Do you have ANY idea of what kind of a bigoted, biased, bitch she has been in her career? You WANT that for a SC judge?

    A) she female, and will be only 1 of 2 on the court. B) her racial comments weren't that bad and one should expect their race to have influenced their life experience and views. C) she's catholic and so am I (kinda) so that's cool too.

    Based on your criteria David Duke would make a good SC judge except he's not a woman. He's white, he's Christian and his race has influenced his life.
