The world's largest army... America 'hunters!
A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful
of states and arrived at a striking conclusion:
There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of
TEXAS alone. Allow me to restate that number. Over the last
several months, Texas hunters became the sixth largest
army
in the world. More men under arms than in Iran. More than in
France and Germany combined. These men deployed to the woods
of a single American state to hunt with firearms, and no one
was killed. That number pales in comparison to the 750,000
who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania and Michigan's 700,000
hunters, all of whom have now returned home. Toss in a
quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally
establishes the fact that the hunters of those four states
alone would comprise the largest army in the world. Hey,
got to throw in Colarodao, New Mexico, Arizona and La., or
just add any other state you want to.
The point? America will forever be safe from foreign
invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower.
Hunting -- it's not just a way to fill the freezer. It's a
matter of national security.

My own two cents on this... That's why all enemies, foreign
and domestic, want to see us disarmed. Food for thought when
considering gun control.
