Seems many repukes now consider this normal and somehow ego-enhancing, appealing to the millions of seditionists. I hope Garland does a full sweep after confirmation. We got a problem, and not just Houston.

(24,847 posts)Of course had access to a pump pellet gun from the 20' or 30's when I was 8 or 9 that had a brass pump handle and was like a sniper pistol. That thing was cool as hell. Looked kind of like this:
That and a .22 when I was 12.
But not tactical looking toy guns.

Daniel Boone, the Virginian, Gunsmoke, The Rifleman, High Chaparral, Wild, Wild West, Combat, Rat Patrol.. So many more. Am I dating myself??

(9,042 posts)On their TV system, everyday I watched Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Rawhide, The Rifleman, and Wagon Train. On Friday and Saturday nights they had Combat, Rat Patrol and 12 Oclock High. It was like reliving my childhood.
I had never known that in the last year of The Rifleman his love interest was Patricia Blair who played Rebecca Boone on Daniel Boone. One episode that year also costarred Ed Ames Mingo, although he played a bad guy.

(16,632 posts)you want to take out the "government" which is where this is headed by a good number (sadly). And NO, they are not "patriots." They are seditionists and traitors.
