I just received this...real food for thought:
Interesting slant on things
AMERICA'S HUNTERS --- Pretty Amazing!
The world's largest army... America 's hunters!
I had never thought about this...
A blogger added up the deer license sales
in just a handful of states and
arrived at a striking conclusion:
There were over 600,000 hunters
this season in the state of Wisconsin .
Allow me to restate that number:
Over the last several months,
Wisconsin's hunters became the eighth
largest army in the world.
More people under arms than in Iran .
More than France and Germanycombined.
These people deployed to the woods of a
single American state, Wisconsin, to hunt
with firearms, and no one was killed.
That number pales in comparison to the
750,000 who hunted the woods ofPennsylvania
and Michigan's 700,000 hunters, all of whom
have now returned home safely. Toss in a
quarter million hunters in West Virginia
and it literally establishes the fact that the
hunters of those four states alone would
comprise the largest army in the world.
And then add in the total number of hunters
in the other 46 states. It's millions more.
The point?
America will forever be safe from foreign
invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower.
Hunting.... it's not just a way to fill the freezer...
It's a matter of national security.
***************************************
That's why all enemies, foreign and
domestic, want to see us disarmed.
Food for thought, when next we consider gun control.
Have A Great Day!
-------------------------------------
Overall it's true, so if we
disregard some assumptions that hunters
don't possess the same skills as soldiers,
the question would still remain...
what army of 2 million would want
to face 30, 40, 50 million armed citizens.
