Amazing... but a LITTLE over the edge....

Hi

Remember what I've been saying about American problems and American solutions?

...I'm just not absolutely sure which one this is.

So: Which would you choose? The Gun or The Gas?

It's real, too.

That's great! More power to them. The power of entrepreneurial capitalism at its finest.

Personally I'd take the gas. I've got enough guns as it is, a lot better than that little pea-shooter.

Well, of course you would go for the gun.

You could hold up gas stations with the gun and get more than just $250.00 dollars worth of gas.

You gotta use your head.
