[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 1311449, member: 684"] My dad told me a story once about when he was a boy, he had saved up all summer and all winter. When spring arrived, he finally had enough money to walk down to the local shop and buy a Winchester rifle he had his eye on. Anyway, he bought the rifle, was walking back home when a deputy sheriff pulled up next to him and said, "whatcha got there, son?" Dad proudly presented the rifle to the lawman, action open as he was taught, with a grin on his face that Ajax couldn't have took off. He said the old flatfoot took the rifle, holding it like a newborn baby, let out a whistle and said, "boy howdy! Now ain't [I]that [/I]a jim-dandy!" and with a smile, handed the rifle back to dad and headed on down the road. He told him something like "be sure and kill a bigun, now!" as he was waving and driving away. Take that same scenario today and the kid would probably be locked up and his parents called. [/QUOTE]
