liberal or conservative, take the test

Got this from another board and thought it was funny

liberals and conservatives
How do you tell the difference between Liberals, Conservatives and Southerners?


Pose the following question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small
children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes
around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the
knife-and charges. You are carrying a Glock .40, and you're an expert
shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.


What do you do?

Liberal 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 an 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 to just 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? Why is
this 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 debate this with some
friends for a few days and try to come to a consensus.

Conservative Answer:

BANG!

Southerner's Answer :

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click...
(followed by sounds of reloading)

Wife: "Sweetheart, he looks like he's still moving, what do you kids think?"
Son: "Mom's right, Dad . . I saw it, too."

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click...

Thumbs up



though for me, second batch would be one shot less. My .45 only carries 8+1(oh yeah, and it'd be .45, not .40 )

ROTFLMAO..that was great.

Dunno of many southerners with 40s but hey its all good.

In Texas you'd probably have BANGs from all the dudes friends as well.

Or the wife would open up first.
