If you really want to look into the mind of the semi-literate gun nut, I would completely recommend this thread. My favorite part is the anonymous commenters daring me to call them a pussy or gun nut to their face. Think about it for a second and then giggle. *** Update *** I didn’t realize …
The Afghan Decision
