Over the past few days, I have noticed a headline at the Yahoo homepage talking about how there is a natoional bullet shortage and that bullet makers are working around the clock to produce bullets. Articles are saying that bullet makers are working 24/7 and still aren’t able to keep up with bullet production.

How many bullet producers are they surveying? Because I know for a fact there is at least one bullet manufacturer that is not producing bullets all day every day. As a matter of fact, they are often closed for entire weekends at a time. It has kept the same hours since the beginning of the recession.

You can also put the blame on a bullet shortage on those who are spreading rumors that because Obama has taken office, he will limit the amount of bullets available or guns will be outlawed or bullets will be outlawed, or any combination of the three. Then, there are those who know there is a shortage so anytime they find bullets, they are purchasing every box that they can get their hands on.

This could actually pose a REAL problem for those who actually use their bullets instead of hoarding. Deer hunting season is coming up quickly and those hunters will need ammo to hunt with. I’m not sure what caliber that the hunters use, but I know that without them hunting the deer, I will be afraid to drive at night due to the overpopulation of deer in my area. I wish it were deer season all year because they are really stupid. I know a lot of people whose cars have been damaged, not to actually hitting a deer, but by the deer running into their cars.

Anyway, I just think that, perhaps, if people would calm down and think about the fact that the administration has done nothing in the way of gun control since the beginning of their term, then maybe ammunition sales would calm down and people would be able to find bullets in the stores.

I am not an advocate for gun rights, as a matter of fact I think that some people should DEFINITELY not be allowed to purchase guns or ammunition. However, I do like when hunters are able to thin out the deer population in the winter.
