"And the peace of mind she has ... knowing she has a scary-looking gun gives her more courage when she's fighting hardened violent criminals."<br /><br />Seems like a very effective argument. And she wasn't even wearing a camo bikini. Women with guns are always more accurate the less clothes they have on. Particularly when beating off several hardened criminals or zombies. Men on the other hand, do not improve their marksmanship while sporting a banana hammock.

Discussing the 14th with them is almost always problematic because they utterly reject it (and often have not read it). So that is one of the reasons that they were so exercised by the "14th Amendment option" idea regarding the debt limit.Denis Kaufmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06430259956722708755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-10385642912228130342013-01-28T20:52:31.674-06:002013-01-28T20:52:31.674-06:00Remember though, this is Arizona you're talkin...Remember though, this is Arizona you're talking about.
