I've heard it from several people. Travel with firearms. Apparently that's the single best way to make sure your stuff arrives with you. FWIW, firearms includes flare guns.
Reading this article brought tears of joy to my eyes. I had thought where I lived qualified as a red meat kind of a place. But I have seen the light and I've repented of my weenie ways.
Best quote:"For most people in Argentina, a vegetarian is something you eat."
If you are in favour of gun control, have never fired a firearm before, are in the Atlanta area, and would like to know what the fuss is all about, send me an email at mousestalker {at} gmail {dot} com. I will supply all firearms, pay for range time and supply all necessary equipment, ammunition and instruction.
I will not debate the issue with you unless you want me to. I will help you be a better informed citizen on the subject.
