They have banned the inportation and further manufacturer of ugly guns so it
is only natural that they would come after ugly, scary trucks too. The same
morons who can't understand why anyone would even want a machine-gun sure as
hell can't understand why someone would want an AT gun or a tank or even a
jeep.
The simple fact is that until we figure out something to be done or figure
out that nothing can be done we had all better be careful about what we do,
what we say, and to whom we say it regarding the possession and use of our
ugly trucks.
Here is a nightmare for you; what if, (and please understand this is only a
"what if") but what if a big boatload of privately owned military vehicles
left the shores of our fair country to participate in some event or rally
overseas? Everyone has a great time. They see the sights and live the life and
come home fat and happy with the wind in their hair and grease under their
fingernails. They return to port here in the New World and who is waiting
there at the port? Those wonderful people in our Government who have take it
upon themselves to protect us from our constitution and protect our neighbors
from us and our ugly trucks. You talk to them, you yell at them, you plead
with them, you reason with them, you get nowhere with them. Maybe you get your
ugly truck back, maybe you don't. If you do get it back how long does it take?
A month? A year?
Like I said, this is only a what if, and I have no idea if it is even a
plausible scenario, but perhaps it should be looked into. I don't mean to
cause anyone any undo stress or reduce the desire of anyone to participate in
overseas events but it occurs to me our government has done stupider and more
mean-spirited things than just confiscating a bunch of old military surplus
trucks from a bunch of people who should never have been allowed to have them
in the first place, in their opinion. Lord help you if there is anything that
could be portrayed as "questionable" in your paperwork! I can just
hear them now, "Papers please."
