The California idiots ran the Great Western Show out of their state, too afraid that gun owners would load up them weapons and commence a shootin.

Saturday the show was here, and of course we went and spent five hours walking. It was truly incredible. Of course it would take too much space to relate everything, but a few highlights cought my attention.

For one thing, my kids, who of course should never be allowed to touch firearms because they might shoot themselves or a friend, behaved exemplary, which was great.

For $350 you can get the largest gun shell made in WWII, a battle crusier shell that stood four feet tall and big inough to slide a volleyball in. If that is not your taste, a seven foot musket dated late 1700s was available. Two gatling guns, two canons and every imaginable part for machine guns or antique guns.

Upon entering I gave security my my 1860 pistol for one of those crime stopping plastick thingamajigs which keep us dangerous men and women from going a a shootfest and actually does nothing to stop the hammer or trigger from working, then in we went.

The news station who was helping spread the hysteria otherwise known as a news clip of the event filmed my outfit, 1860 civil war uniform, dress jacket and cav boots, which was nice.

There was none of the sniper attacks one might expect at such events, and all of the pro terrorist lectures were canceled to make room for other engagements. The open shooting and road rage seemed calm afterward also, even though there were tables filled with ammunition and good deals on weapons. All in all it was great fun. I wzas most surprised to find out that two swords I had were fine collector’s items. It was also a real treat to actually hold accoutrements from past centuries rather than view them behind glass.

Some of the historical collectors specialized in WWII and nazi items. Someone saw me try on a Nazi officer’s hat and wondered why I would wear such a thing. I replied that there were two reasons. First I wondered what it felt like to wear something of that nature and be the man under it, and it also made people ask questions. It was a relic of a past needing to be remembered, about what racist hate, evil and murder can do. It serves no purpose to destroy such relics, because it is like trying to erase a past that we should learn from.

Trying to explain the holocaust, gun control, the civil war, is all well and good, but relcis bring it to life. Seeing the materials from that time make people realize that it is not fairy tale stories but a reality that people once lived, people like us. Others are living the same thing now!

Hopefully they will fire the show up around here twice a year. I guess alot of California politicians ane anti gun people like to hide their heads. After all, we all know that if we got rid of all the guns there would be no crime in the world, no more dead kids or mates. We could sleep peaceful at night if all these terrorist supporting gun shows were outlawed and all the guns made into fuel injectors. Yeah!

Hey, it worked for the British! We might even get Bean to become a real detective!!
