50/50 Chance

Post by Buggy » Thu Aug 23, 2007 11:46 am

Y'know, I'll be coming down there for a visit in November. This doesn't really make me feel safer.

"1 In 2 Men In Downtown Orlando Have Guns On Weekends"? Simple solution. Don't go to downtown Orlando.

Or if you do, bring your own gun. :D:

I'd much rather have had Disney World in Texas than the Orlando area. In Texas, people have guns, but they also have a healthy respect for what those guns can do and most have respect for life. For those that don't, there's an intravenous line with their name on it, and it's been tested in the last month at all times.

I, personally, almost never go into the downtown area of Orlando. I avoid it like an outbreak of the plague.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Disney in Texas:

..darph, hold my beer while I stand up on this here space mountain ride, I want to see if I can float or if they took away that gravity thing for this here ride .....<burp>

Do these here test track cars have a place to put my gunrack?

And think of all the expensive stetsons that would be collected under the BTMR and Space Mt tracks. They may have to be removed 3 or 4 times daily to prevent them piling up high enough to hinder the movement of the cars.

Don't forget that there would need to be a larger lot to hitch up the horses than park our trucks :p:

Oh, ICSP, you're thinking of Arkansas/Tennessee/Kentucky Rednecks or the coon asses from Louisiana :) We Texan's are typically the ones who sit on our horses, watch the train wreck unfold, shake our heads and then ride away in silence :D:
