LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!
Tamara (the Queen of Snark) has alerted us to a traitor in our midst. A commercial ammunition sales/gun store company, who went on the radio supporting a ban on online ammunition sales!
In her words (because no one can say it better):
Dear Jeremy Alcede of Tactical Firearms, Katy, TX: I hope you freeze in the dark, you gutless quisling punk.
When your children are crying “Daddy, why are we on food stamps?” you can tell them “It’s because your Daddy was a selfish, pusillanimous sellout who put his personal bottom line ahead of the Bill of Rights, kids, and so nobody would buy anything from his store ever again.“
Be sure and spread the word.
For the uninformed (from the BING Dictionary):
QUISLING (n.)
quislings (pl.)
A traitor, especially somebody who collaborates with an occupying force.
[ Mid-20th century. After Vidkun Quisling, puppet premier of Norway during Nazi occupation ]
quis·ling·ism NOUN
Word History
Vidkun Quisling was a Norwegian politician who from 1933 led the National Union Party, the Norwegian fascist party. (Quisling was not his real name – he was originally Abraham Lauritz Jonsson.) When the Germans invaded Norway in 1940, he gave them active support, urging his fellow Norwegians not to resist them, and in 1942 he was installed by Hitler as a puppet premier. In 1945 he was shot for treason.
SEE! Read Tam and you learn stuff. I did! :- )
I think that in this case the quisling should NOT be shot, i.e., as many people as possible need to be made aware of this and cease buying from him, starting with ammunition.

Let the FREE MARKET solve the problem!
Posted by guffaw1952 | August 2, 2012, 9:02 amI was trying for a contorted analogy. Shooting = ammo. So no shoot = no ammo and no buy ammo from this guy.
Posted by ProudHillbilly | August 2, 2012, 2:26 pmUnderstood. And thanks.
Posted by guffaw1952 | August 2, 2012, 5:43 pmYep, no buy from this guy… ESPECIALLY ammo!!!
Posted by Old NFO | August 2, 2012, 9:31 amWhile I’m not in Texas, I’ve called a couple of friends and relatives near Houston to point this out.
