CANNED HEAT | Gin and Tacos:
from the comments......
I was stationed in Alaska in 2008 when Obama was elected. Many people I worked with were Freaking the Fuck Out. One coworker, whose wife had just delivered the second (or was it third?) child, took out a $10,000 personal loan with the credit union in order to buy more guns and ammo.I remember this too. The day after the election, a lady I work with was freaking-out, about to cry, didn't know what to do. Fox news, her church, and the gun nuts she's surrounded by had her convinced that Obama's thugs would soon be at her door to take her guns and her bible.
And so, because of all the Freaking the Fuck Out, ammunition in common calibers became hard to come by and rose in price for a year or two after. And a few gun manufacturers made an (ahem) killing.
