HERE'S some "fun" for ya: Just got this in my inbox
Actually, just got it on my myspace bulletins, but whatever. I usually let this kinda thing go by, but it was posted by a nightclub myspace, not an individual. Assumptions are the mother of all fuckups. AS A SOUTHERNER (and PROUD OF IT); I have a special problem with this bullshit:

"Are you a Democrat, a Republican or a Southerner?

Here is a little test that will help you decide.

The answer can be found by posing the following question:

You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small
children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah,raises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock 40, and you are an expert shot you have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?

...................................................................
Democrat's 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 Glock have 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
happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.

This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for
few days and try to come to a consensus.
..........................................................

Republican's Answer:
BANG!
..............................................................
Southerner's Answer:

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click.....

(sounds of reloading).

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click

Daughter: "Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points?

Son: Can I shoot the next one?

Wife: You ain't taking that to the Taxidermist!"




MY RESPONSE:

THIS SOUTHERN Democrat's Answer:
BANG!

Mom: What's an Islamic terrorist doing over here? I thought George Bush said we were fighting them over THERE in Iraq so they wouldn't GET over here!? Are you telling me he LIED? And our soldiers are still DYING for it?

Dad: I'm sorry I had to kill him, since the ten commandments forbids it, but it had to be done. WWJD?

1. Sums up a lot of their Hyper-Masculinity complex.
They are so afraid it's ridiculous.

2. I like your answer!
Mine: Democrat. I can't help it: I think therefore I am a Democrat.

3. I would've shot the guy in the leg to stop him.
Only as much force as necessary to stop an attacker. If he had a gun on him, I'd probably shoot to kill.
