Yes, there is a Southfork Ranch. But those guys in Dallas are pikers. Google Cullen Davis for real money, greed, and deadly intent. Ft. Worth, Cowtown, Where The West Begins & home sweet home.

Other than that, the only confusion I’m seeing are whether to use 5.56 or 7.62 during any difficulties.

Oh, yeah! I thought so.

From the article:

The event had been billed as the largest tea party in the nation, and some organizers had said the crowd could reach 50,000.

....and due to the extreme heat of around 102 there were many seniors who normally would have attended, but didn’t attend due to health concerns... I think the index was 110+..that’s hot even for Texas in the summer.
