A Mr. Turd Fergurson, a druggist in Altoona, Michigan and a charter member of the Upper Peninsula Michigan Militia issued a statement, “they think I am going to Iraq they are crazier than Bush looks. I just joined for some weekend paint-ball stuff ”

2. A joke...but maybe they SHOULD
:evilgrin:

and "deputize" the inner city gangstas that love to shoot stuff up.. They maight actually make a mean military unit..:scared:....

and if they ran out of stuff to shoot up, they could start on each other.:eyes:

The neighborhoods that used to be their territory would probably send Rummy candy & flowers..
