Remind him that PGM is short for Power Gone Mister

That why they invented slings and bayonets.

Where will the Ferguson rioters go tonight? I don't know. I can tell you where they won't go.....to this guy's store. Think of this the next time someone tells you that you don't need military style weapons or 30-round magazines. One man standing against a hoard of rioting looters doesn't work...

If the 8 of us can ever agree on where to eat dinner, we can plot how to take over all of Russia.
