We will have the fence finished by 2012, We have every thing we need to survive. Our gun stores sell high capacity assault weapons and for $3600.00 and a clean record you can walk out with a .50 cal. recoilless rifle. My county of 350,000 people has 20,000 concealed weapons permits. When the oceans start to rise DON"T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT !!!
