GUN COLLECTING ~
You may have heard on the news about a Southern California man who
was put under 72-hour psychiatric observation when it was found he owned
100 guns and allegedly had (by rough estimate) 100,000 rounds of ammunition
stored in his home. The house also featured a secret escape tunnel.

By Southern California standards someone owning 100,000 rounds would be
called "mentally unstable."

Just imagine if he lived elsewhere:

In San Francisco the liberals would deny he even existed (while he is taken
away and his guns given to politicians).

In Arizona , he'd be called "an avid gun collector."

In Arkansas , he'd be called "a novice gun collector."

In Utah , he'd be called "moderately well prepared," but they'd probably reserve
judgment until they made sure that he had a corresponding quantity of stored food.”

In Kansas, he'd be "A guy down the road you would want to have for a friend."

In Montana and Kentucky, he'd be called "The neighborhood 'Go-To' guy.”

In Alabama, he'd be called "a likely gubernatorial candidate."

In Georgia, he'd be called "an eligible bachelor."

In North Carolina, Virginia, Mississippi, and South Carolina he would be called
a “deer hunting buddy."

And in Texas he's just "Bubba, who's a little short on ammo."

Ever notice that the states lower down the list have fewer rallies and bombings. But twice, in the course of history, we have backed up what we said we'd do.

In Idaho: "Off to a good start..."

In the UK (and I suspect in some places in the USA) the local press would call him "a sad loner with an arsenal of weapons".

Which is pretty much word for word what the Murdoch press call a gun collector!

I'm from West Virginia, what was odd about that guy from CA?

Anything south of the Mason/Dixon line. We call it "The Solid South" for a reason..
