Keep your BS up and you will have your rights and no guns.

loss...


LOL...yeah right.

No...its your loss.

But hold your chin up high...you still have your rights even if you
can't afford to buy a gun.


Premise: if Wal-Mart doesn't sell it, you can't afford it. The
obvious correllary is that the pseudonym should be extended to:
TMTNWIH: too many tools, none worth having.

Default OT - Facts to ponder...

FACTS TO PONDER:

(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is

700,000.

(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians

per year are

120,000.

(C) Accidental deaths per physician

is

0.171.

Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of

Health Human Services.



Now think about this:

Guns:

(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S.

is

80,000,000.

(Yes, that's 80 million..)



(B) The number of accidental gun deaths

per year, all age groups,

is

1,500.



(C) The number of accidental deaths

per gun owner

is

..000188.

Statistics courtesy of FBI



So, statistically, doctors are approximately

9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.



Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.'



FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN,

BUT

ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.



Please alert your friends

to this

alarming threat.

We must ban doctors

before this gets completely out of hand!!!!!

&g t;


Out of concern for the public at large,

I have withheld the statistics on
lawyers
for fear the shock would cause
people to panic and seek medical attention

You can buy whereever you wish to.

Other retailers will follow Walmart's lead in this matter just like
they have in many others.

As to cost, I suspect you will see the cost of ammo climb to heights
that we can just imagine now.

As for reloading...that practice can be made to be extremely expensive
too.

Americans may have the right to arms...no one said anything about
bullets.
