The days before the liberal brainwashing of the American people:



Today, the same company produces the a toy symbolizing the "emancipation " of the women in the Islamic world: Burkha Barbie

For Christmas, think I'll buy some Burka Barbie's for my militant lesbian friends.

[Gryff]

I guess the Greatest Generation had a lot fewer cowards in than ours.

Burkha Barbie

Does the accessory kit include "Ken al Tikrit" and a pink rape room with monogrammed golf cart batteries?

Me too. Ammo was cheap. What was it? A dime for 5 rolls of caps.

[Timberwolf]

I had one as well. I also had a M14 and 45 ACP that shot plastic bullets as well.

I had one, I think, but my favorite was an air rifle. It had a metal barrel. You would cock it and it would put out a burst of air. If you stuck the end of the barrel in the ground before firing you could shoot a dirt clod.

I'm sure it could put out an eye.

Ya, but that dime was almost 30 minutes of house/yard work!

Heck... dad made $2.75, so my $0.25 was a pretty good wage!

That was my favorite one too.

Did you actually oil it where it said "Oil here" to get the after-shot smoke?
