Businessweek reports that "background checks for people wanting to purchase firearms in Colorado spiked more than 40 percent this past weekend, after a gunman opened fire in a suburban Denver movie theater... During the three days following the July 20 shooting, gun dealers submitted 2,887 requests for state background checks, compared with 2,012 during the same period a week earlier, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation." Are you surprised by the gun spike in Colorado -- or did you see it coming?

Will you be buying a gun soon?

Everytime Carolyn McCarthy says something inane about amending the 2nd amendment, many people myself include go out about buy another one.
Good for the people of Colorado, protect yourself.

HAHAHA. Save more lives. Please.
I more than likely won't be buying another handgun soon...already good in that department... But I am trying to decide on the long gun I am going to buy.... Like should I get a .270, a 35 Whelan, or a 30-06.... More than likely it will be a Remington like this one.. with a really good scope!

Frankly...I cannot think of a single nation who would want its troops to face US Citizens even while their troops were wearing baby blue helmets... We are known for our skills, and I do have extremely serious doubts that if the UN tried to use our own troops....that would fail dismally.... I spent 10 years in uniform, combat arms....and I'll be damned if I would ever take up arms against American Citizens who were abiding by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. A soldier or any service member has ZERO obligation to obey illegal or immoral orders.
So I don't spend too much time worrying about it.
