“Liberals don’t hate guns, they hate gun owners. They despise anyone who disagrees. They really want to ban US!”
And if they ever disarm us, they will.
I have to admit my high school principal would have liked to choke most of us. Especially my senior year. We were always screwing up or around into some kind of duck school authority plan.

Black people kill other black people at a far great rate than anyone else does.
When the country was more european based citizenry, it was much, much more civilized.
Never should have let socialism ever take roots here.
When we lived on Long Island in the late 50’s my Brother was in a School Gun Club.
He carried his .22 Rifle to School twice a week and nobody batted an eye.

Gee, I wonder who paid to have the German gun laws transcribed into English. I have this Name RIGHT ON THE TIP OF MY TONGUE.
I have to ask, where on Long Island?
I'm from the arm-pit of Brentwood, {Suffolk County} L.I. N.Y.
Left that hell-hole Long Island in 1978. On my mother's side of the family, I was the first to leave Long Island in over 300 year's, dating back to the French Huguenots.
I lived in Brentwood for a couple of years around 1960 on Merrill Street.
It was going downhill then.

My Father and his Brother owned an Esso Gas Station on Dutch Broadway, a few blocks from our House.
