The owner of a gun and pawn shop in Macon, Ga., has taken out a radio ad in the state telling people to "stock up" on guns before the November election, according to CBS Macon:
"We were merely reminding people of the way our industry was affected before, and our ad is entirely to encourage people to come get products while we have them." [...]
Reed says in the months before the last presidential election in 2008, he saw a major spike in people coming in to his shop to purchase guns before the election. "It was just like someone turned on a faucet, and I mean it was wide open, 'I want two of this,' '2,000 rounds of that.'"
Reed says he is concerned about President Obama being re-elected because of the United Nations' efforts to limit guns. He says it's in part what motivates people to buy guns before an election. "There was fear in the hearts and guts of people nationwide or else what happened before, wouldn't have happened."
