56. Former Navy

Tue Dec 18, 2012, 01:24 PM

Dec 2012

Was on a ship too small for Marines, so I was a member of the ship's security force. Participated in many drills. Practiced at the range once a week.

I own a gun. Would gladly give it up if the law dictated so. It is safely locked up.

I'll help take on this insurrection. I didn't buy this gun in fear of urban blacks. I bought this gun to protect myself from NRA loving, Fox News watching, Alan West voting, nut jobs and their planned arm revolt.

Disarm those crazys and I will gladly give up my weapon. In the meantime, I can help with a couple of em. It isn't just the military they need to worry about with this insurrection.
