Liberals 'Buying Up Guns'?

A reader reported last week that one liberal told him that people on the Left are beginning to 'buy up guns.' The reason? They are afraid of the millions of gun owners who are arming to the hilt in response to Obama.

ROFL!

For one thing, I don't believe it.

And even if it were true, it is amazing how quickly liberals give up on their core principles when they face a perceived 'threat.'

Of course, we have known about the liberal hypocrisy on guns for years. Even Senator Dianne Feinstein armed herself when she and her family were the recipients of threats from a Leftwing subversive group years ago. Yet Feinstein would deny that right to most Americans with her decidedly anti-gun, anti-self-defense votes.

But even so, if the liberals begin to 'buy up guns' and thus exercise their Constitutional right to own firearms, I will be among the first to congratulate them for coming around to our point of view.

Tax-Free Guns in S.C. a Big Hit

Friday and Saturday of this week marks a watershed event in South Carolina as the state legislature voted for its very first tax-free holiday for gun sales.

All gun sales in the state on Friday and Saturday of this week are tax-free.

And, from all indications, the tax-free holiday has been a big hit with South Carolinians who are buying guns. Some of these citizens state openly that the thing that motivated them to buy guns is the coming Barack Obama administration, which they see as a threat to gun rights.

From Clinton to Greenville, from Greer to Darlington, from Orangeburg to Charleston, guns have been flying off the shelves of gun stores as quickly as employees can stock them.

Perhaps this should send a clear signal to Barack Obama and his team of gun-grabbers, along with the Democrats and Independents who put them into office.
