BUTTER MERELY MAKES US FAT

Aww, it might not make us so fat if we got up and exercised. part of preparing is taking care of ones self physically. I'd rather have the butter. Guns cans can freeze to your tounge while you try to eat them in freezing weather.

In a time of food shortages, it may be the fat who survive.

That means I 'll survive. Not fat, just a smidge heavy.

I don't eat butter so give me the guns!

As my old economics professor used to say -

WHEN GUNS ARE OUTLAWED OUTLAWS WILL HAVE BUTTER

I got guns so I hope to keep my cow so I will have butter, and my blacksmith forge is next to my hog lot so I can pound hot steel while watching my lard grow.
