Quarter Round
New member
... between Liberals, Conservatives, and Country Folks?
Pose the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small
children.
Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes around the
corner,
locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the knife, and
charges.
You are carrying a Colt 45 automatic, and you are an expert shot. You
have mere
seconds before he reaches you and your family.
What do you do?
Liberals Answer:
Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
Does the man look poor or oppressed? Have I ever done anything to him
that would inspire him to attack? Could we run away? What does my wife
think? What about the kids?
Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of
his hand?
What does the law say about this situation?
Does the 45 have an appropriate safety built into it?
Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does
this send to society and to my children?
Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to
wound
me?
If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away
while he was stabbing me?
Should I call 9-1-1?
Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint
and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would
discourage such behavior.
This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for
a
few
days and try to come to a consensus.
Conservative Answer:
BANG!
Country Dude’s Answer:
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click... (Sounds
of reloading.)
Wife: "Sweetheart, he looks like he's still moving, what do you kids
think?"
Son: "Mom's right Dad, I saw him twitch a couple times"
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click.
Daughter: "Nice group, Daddy! Were those the new Winchester hollow
points?"
