However attractive the idea for our own little Lagos-type settlements, I fear that the gibsmedats and their protectors within the administration will seize upon it to foment the Helter-Skelter Scenario they really desire. Could be rough for a while.
Howsoever much I hate to give Karl (The Architect) any credit whatsoever, avoidance of this scenario may have been the progenitor of his wacko idea of "Latinos as the Republicans of the Future." IOW, with Latinos at 1/3 (!) of the population already, and said to be of a rather passionate nature, perhaps Karl was thinking they would settle the racial issue in their own way, leaving us the hell out of it.
Right now, IMNVHO, Administration Policy might as well be driven by Trayvon and Michael. The feral mobs give the "Negro Moderates" a very handy group of radicals with whom they hope to intimidate us into further accommodation of their counterproductive state supported life-styles and of course more perks for the "moderates." Reminds one of the Muslims' OS!
The only other drawback to the GGB I can see is personal. I was never able to hit anything much with my pistol during my late unlamented military career. Can I have the shotgun?
Both blacks and Hispanics are aware their cultures are vastly less capable of producing the hard goods, ideas, innovations, etc. which are the basis for America’s level of prosperity/productiviey.
Accordingly, rather than drop an inferior culture, they choose to keep theirs and, accordingly, resent us “Whiteies” or “Gringos”.
Yes, it is racial and they do wallow in it.
If the engagement of the hostiles is about 50 yards or less, and the hostiles are not wearing body armor, buckshot is exceeded in effectiveness only by explosives or incendiary weapons. When Willie Peter speaks, people listen.
Certain groups with experience in this field of last stage political discourse hold a handgun is only useful to fight ones way back to the rifle one should never have laid down.
Returning to the shotgun, a 3” capable 12 gauge loaded with Dixie Tri-Ball loads gives the 12 gauge a completely different set of penetration capabilities and can be effective beyond the usual 40 yards of conventional buckshot.
In closing, the Saiga 12 can place either Tri-Ball or slugs well inside the “minute of Mo” required for self defense at ranges up to 100+ yards. Recoil is a easily tamed with a Shooters Friend pad.
Ever thought about a .300 Win Mag autoloader - one of those can be reduce cover to concealment. Just the thing for a game of ‘Terminal Tag’ forced upon one by the dwellers in the shallow end of the gene pool.
