Wow, the boys in Washington D.C got it right! Yeah!

Just recently ,the govt "geniuses" ,with a real feel for the American mind set,decided to start controlling gun sales. Boy are they doing great! Have you tried to buy a rifle (say a Marlin lever gun in 44 mag) ,nothing! And what`s out there are priced on the other side of ridiculous. The big online guys are out of stock ,period ! There must be some type of record broken for lawful sales of rifles of all types & hand guns of all types . If these guys would have just let things settle , & made a few decisive real world moves ,this panic would have been diverted . These morons got just the opposite of what they intended. A seven year old kid could have made better plans! They did however ,get the ammo. Somehow ,they put a crimp in the supply & distribution systems , I`m certainly no genius ,but I feel this ammo "situation"was planned in some places in our Govt ,that if found,would really aggravate the shooting community. Whew, I feel better now.

So, how does the great state of Washington fit into this?

Blaming Washington (D.C.) only gets it half right. Their actions may have stampeded the herd, but if that was by design, then it was stupid, because all it is doing is putting every available firearm and box of ammo out their in the hands of citizens who are gonna want to keep them. But never attribute to genius what can be explained by stupidity. Or as the Brits put it, cock-up before conspiracy.
