Are you a Democrat, Republican or Redneck?

Are you a Democrat, a Republican, or a Redneck?

Here is a little test that will help you decide.


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 cal 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 ?

W! hy is th is street so deserted?

We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a
happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.

This is all so confusing!

I need to discuss with some friends over a latte and try to come to a
consensus.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Republican's Answer:

BANG!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Redneck'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: "You got him, Pop! Can I shoot the next one?"

Wife: "You are not taking that to the taxidermist!"​
 
And you expect us to believe that? First, any good Republican knows that you would, at a minimum, do a double tap. Second, any good Redneck girl would would know that "Winchester Silver Tips" are in fact, Hollow Point bullets and therefore would not have asked such a silly question.

Oh yeah, and any good Democrat would have wet himself.
 
The Republican response is predictable. However, since they are well known for shooting themselves in the foot, the Republican is also dead.

The Redneck is still trying to figure out which end of the gun gets reloaded.

If the person is definitely carrying a Glock, there is no Democrat there. However, if there was a Democrat there, he simply takes one step to the side and watches the terrorist fly past and over the nearby bridge railing. He then continues on his way. He's too smart to get involved with terrorists in the first place.

Assuming the republican shot himself in the foot: he'd only be dead if he got a democrat doctor who thought after the amputation you kept the foot and threw away the rest. :poke:

Of course, it'd actually been the redneck shot in the foot - but the terrorist would have been dead first; upon reloading though (which they know long before starting school [at age 15]) their drunken condition may impair proper safety. Nobody'd miss him though; his wife would just marry another of her brothers. :D

Now the problem is they don't make real democrats anymore, and the few left all moved out of Florida, now residing in SD: if they don't own a Glock it's only because they got a better deal on the Colt. :thumb:

Actually Don, I live in an area that is highly Democratic, probably 70%. And I have many friends who are Democrats, they tolerate me and treat me as a token. I would say I characterized most of the good Democrats accurately. I would also say that there is a difference between a true Democrat and a good Democrat. A true Democrat is socially moderate, fiscally conservative . . . they no longer exist, except for DaveNay.

BTW, I've never listened to (or watched?) O'Reilly.

I didn't see anything about a bridge... How far would that terrorist need to run? Also, you've just let the terrorist get by and now the next person has to deal with it. You're basically hiding from the issue.

You're "too smart":confused2: to get involved with the issue. Again, you're hiding from the issue and "thinking" it will just go away.

At least the Republicans are facing the issue.

They're thicker than the deer up here. And we have way to many deer around. I'd say 50% are Moveon.org moonbats like Don and the other 50% are just sheep that don't really know why they vote Democrat but they do because they can't think for themselves.

I have a hard time finding true conservatives up here. Even most of the people that vote Republican up here are borderline lefties in my opinion.

Actually, I think personal finances are completely irrelevant when it comes to political fiscal conservatism. Besides, all my money is invested in ourselves, not other people or welfare. If I want to blow my entire wad on a business venture, with long term appreciable gains, that's a risk I'm (obviously) willing to take.

I think it was Sam Walton who used to say "Never trust a man who hasn't failed at least once."

And Bob...was your original comment tongue-in-cheek, or serious? I hope serious, because it does describe me pretty well.

As it does me. Of all my gripes about the Bush folks, the biggest is that they are fiscally irresponsible. I am a fiscal conservative. Of course, I am socially moderate.

PB, A moveon.org moonbat? First of all, I doubt you actually know what moveon.org does or stands for. For you to characterize them as "moonbats" just shows your ignorance. Second of all, I challenge you to show my one thing that I have said that defines me as a "moonbat", whatever the hell that is.

I was very serious. You are one of those rare Democrats that believes that things like abortion should be legal or is willing to support public housing, but you also strike me as the type of Democrat that doesn't want his money being used to pay for someone else's abortion, and doesn't believe that public housing should include cable TV and other luxuries. Bascially you want individual liberty, and that includes some level of personal responsibility. . . including the liberty to fail and the associated responsibility that goes with it.

Further, you are willing to risk your own money on your own venture without the need for a government handout expected.

Hence, you are one of the old style, or true Democrats. The current crop of tax and spend Democrats derive their power through polictical handouts and programs that actually supress people and prevent them from personal growth, absolve them from personal responsibility, and then support them when 'the system' fails them.

In my mind you qualify as a moonbat because of the vitriol and anger you constantly demonstrate towards the Republican party and people with conservative leanings. You hatred is so obvious and blinding that it prevents you from effectively communicating with those that do not share your fanaticism.

It seems to me that Moveon.org has it's own agenda and it includes an "in your face" delivery mechanism that you also demonstrate.

Here's a good article that demonstrates the attitudes that I have seen on Moveon.org:

I do blame the Republican party for losing control of the party to ultra-conservatives and religious fanatics. I am angry; this was a good country when both Republicans and Democrats were able to work together. My vitriol comes as a result of the vitriol that has been heaped on fine, upstanding Americans who do not happen to agree with the conservatives. Their entire campaign has been negative. Rather than espouse any kind of positive program, they resorted to making "Liberal" a dirty word and to Ann Coulter-like proclamations of "Treason!" Whatever vitriol I give back is mild in comparison and is driven in response to the ludicrous bias that is shown legitimate Democrats and Liberals every day by the sheep that follow the ultra-conservative game plan.

Stand up for yourselves, think for yourselves, quit following the play book of the masters who are telling you how to think, and go back to the days of respect, and I will stop lumping you with them.

But, see, that's where you're wrong. I don't hate anyone, but I do hate what they're doing to this country. It's really anger, not hatred, and it is far from blind. If you can't see how the right wing has resorted to insulting and blaspheming Democrats at every drop of the hat, then you are stupid, and you deserve my anger.

Exactly the opposite! I'm not the fanatic, here, and it is your fanaticism -- your unthinking repetition of all the Democrat jokes, all the scurrilous lies, all the exaggerations, that makes YOU unable to hear what I'm saying. If you don't get what I just said, that is proof of what I'm saying.

First of all, it was the old style Democrats who were tax and spend. That ended with the Clinton administration, when good fiscal responsilibility became part of the Democratic platform, known as the New Democrats.

THAT fiscal responsibility ended with old "borrow and spend", the greatest spender in our history, and the one plunging us into almost unredeemable debt, with obligations to the very people that want to subjugate us. THAT makes a lot of sense, huh?

But,regardless, which part of your description of a "true" Democrat does not fit me?
 
New Democrats have no fiscal responsibility at all. As for your version versus my version of the definition, I'd suggest that any version is subjective if we want to put a lable on it. But there are some good Democrats out there, at least beyond DaveNay. Some folks refer to them as Blue Dog Democrats, but others consider that insulting. I don't, and from what I can tell the Blue Dog Dems don't, but I suppose New Democrats would.

Then, let me hear your version of the surplus versus the deficit.

But, I don't want to hear there was no surplus. I might agree to some other term, but the fact of the matter is that the deficit was a heck of a lot less under Clinton and many people considered it a surplus. Even if it was not an technical surplus we were a lot closer to it than we had been under the GOP leadership both before and after. If a smaller deficit is not fiscal conservatism, then I don't know what is.

I thought the strangest "invention" was that a Democrat would be peeing their pants - we all know them sissies wear skirts!:whistle: (sorry - I couldn't resist)
 
Back to the original post....

Here is a little test that will help you decide.


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 cal 40, and you are an expert shot. You have
mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.

What do you do?

...epilogue...

The "muslim terrorist" turned out to be Mehmet, a small business owner running for his life. 'Seems a bunch of rednecks (on a 12-pack each and carrying sawed off shotguns) went out terrorist huntin' tonite and, well, ole Mehmet fit the type...

You, with your .40 cal Glock, are a proud badge carrying member of the NRA, Republican as Mehmet, and as terrified by the situation as the arab looks. Of course, you shoot, that's what you got the gun for, because, after all, they're all (Muslims) out to get us!!

BTW, you find out later that the obscenities he was yelling in Arab (as if you could actually understand:rolleyes: ) were cries of help and warnings for you to get your family out of the way...Allah' you!!!

All the more reason to speak English in America :a1:
 
Actually, I don't think a republican would be carrying a .40. If you at least don't have a .45, might as well go with a 9:D

I'm curious, do democrats even carry?

Perhaps its a matter of perspective.

Sometimes I wonder even if I'm a "true "republican" at times.

I do have a "liberal" streak that runs through me. I do believe in pro choice (to an extent, not to be used as birth control "over and over"), I do believe that people have the right to burn the American flag (if they were to do this in my presence though, I'd end up in a fight with those in question, and if they felt that strongly to burn a flag in public, they should move to another country), and I think that people are accountable for their choices.

I've lived in a trailer in West Virginia (per the redneck jokes and have ridden in the backwoods on an ATV with an AR slung around my back and have lived in my car for litterally a year), have a college education, and ultimatley am responsible for my own decisions. Make decent money and live in what most people would consider a "nice place". I believe in God, but if someone were to break into my house, I'd have no problem pumping them full of lead (or copper) to meet their "maker". I don't listen to Mr. R.L on the radio because at times, I think hes just as blind as some of the "liberals" that I know in his "narrow" views.

WHAT AM I??????
