    Buy, buy, buy all you can so your kin can inherit it all after you perish from the virus or, should you survive, you do not have to go shopping for the next year and have more time to shoot all that ammo you bought and to wipe your behind with all the toilet paper you stockpiled!

    Gunz are icky.
    Just heard a new conspiracy theory about this virus.
    It was developed to kill off older people.
    Older people own a lot of property and wealth.
    This would inherit down with their passing.
    Gov would then be able to steal more of this wealth thru inheritance taxes as well as easing the burden on public service such as Medicare, Social Security, etc.

    A buddy of mine dad passed a few weeks ago & he was worth a few million. I asked my buddy about inhertiant tax & he said he was fine.

    I remember my buddy who runs a seasonal business had like 2-3 cases of toliet paper when the season was over. I have a key & might just go get a case & set up on a corner with $5.00 rolls.

    Not buying it.

    The mortality rate isn't high enough to make me think it is intentional

    Yeah, me either. While the mortality is lower for the younger groups, it is not zero. So, put out a virus that might kill YOU in order to "clean up" the demographics?

    Saw this one on Twitter and feel is likely:

    * Trump is elected
    * He works on fixing up our trade balance with China
    * China pays billions in tariffs
    * Virus begins in China
    * Virus comes to US
    * Chinese-owned media use it to create panic
    * Markets tank
    * ...Just before election time

    I fought an old lady in HEB yesterday for some paper towels. I asked if she needed them and she was like no I have plenty. So o told her I was out and needed them more than she did. Ultimately I had to snag the package before she could get her hands on it

    Glad I've been slowly but surely loading up on ammo for the last three years at some of the lowest prices I can ever remember......not even counting inflation, just the actual cost. Ironic that yesterday I got a delivery from Target Sports of some 9mm 124 gr. Federal JHP at the best price I've ever bought it at the same day all this shit went down.
