Armed and Dangerous � Blog Archive � In which I am thankful for Barack Obama’s election: "Americans are still out there eight months later buying firearms like mad - and I think this can be nothing but good in the longer term. Let me count the ways:

1. More firearms in civilian hands means a larger constituency to oppose restrictive firearms laws and regulations.

2. More firearms in civilian hands means more people carrying concealed, depressing crime rates.

3. More firearms in civilian hands means the balance of coercive power shifts in favor of the people and against government, making some of our nastier potential futures just that much less likely.

4. Higher demand means more firearms-manufacturing capacity in the future, leading to lower prices and a likelihood that the previous three virtuous effects will be sustained."

I can recall that the floorboards were kind of partly there and the exhause would leak up into the car. The old faithful four cylinder L-head made some kinda noise, especial

Unification

The unification if Christians will come by the purge of Christians from non orthodox churches in the west. Orthodoxy will be the last church standing as protestant and catholic churches consume themselves in their fervor to conform to the world. I see a tipping point coming where only a church that survived 70 years of attempted extermination by the Soviets has the spine to stay true to Christ. It needs no outreach, just don't conform.
