The world's largest army is......  

America's hunters!  I had never thought about this....


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 Wisconsin ..


 

Allow me to restate that number.


 

Over the last several months, Wisconsin 's hunters became the eighth 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.

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.

*************************************************

That's why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us disarmed.


 

Food for thought when next we consider gun control.

 

Wonderful Reagan quote that says it like it is! "It isn't that Liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so much that isn't so."

I have though about what would happen if a country was to invade us.  I feel sorry for the ones stupid enough to try good ol North Dakota!  Every person I know has not only one but multiple firearms!  I alone think I have enough weapons and ammo to hold em off for quite a while! 
Hunt today like there may be no tomorrow!

lol... me too gone.  on brick number 3 or 4 of .22 shells already this spring and probably have around 200 confirmed kills.  will have to admit tho... they ain't all one shot, one kill like our professional military is capable of.  and its all done for the sake of saving the roads and none of it is done for the sake of simple entertainment...

Nice. What did you do with other 1300 shots?
