Investment Tips

So I noticed this article today about the rise in gun sales in the last year. Sales have risen 8-10% at a time when people are spending less on everything else. The Washington Post cites the reason as Obama's threat to gun ownership and his proposed block of certain types of firearms, but I remember an article that I can't find that said gun sales went up 50% in Austin, Texas mainly because people are afraid that the wrong person is going to win the Presidency. It's crazy how militant some people are becoming over this election. I was in Asheville last night dressed as a zombie protesting Sarah Palin, and as the people were filing out of her speech, they were yelling at us way more than we were yelling at them. Honestly I didn't know it was a protest until I got there, and I have never been yelled at, called a faggot, and flicked off so much in my life.

*note*
Apparently the Washington Post makes you sign up to look at their articles now... I can't stand it. Also I've been working on a long entry that keeps getting deleted... Blogger is killing me lately.
