i'm in Starkville right now--every gas station here still has a limit on the amount you can buy

use to be $20 at most places; most are now at $30 or $40

its $2.69 here for the cheapest for 87 grade

i dont know if this limit (the current one) is just a local one (we have a big state university here, MSU) or what.....

How can they legally take away guns in NO?  I don't think whoever is doing it really cares what is legal.  We'll see how this pans out, if it's true.

so america is now no different with freedom then russia europe, cuba etc for personal freedoms and private businesses.  

People just think the gov won't take it away in other locations.    

Can't say it wasn't predicted by countless people in the past :)

??????????  WELL  ??????????????

I haven't heard anything .....

I also heard (during the week of the storm) that there were attempted armed takeovers of gasoline deopts and utility and law enforcement refeuling centers.   That never happened ..... poeple love to be dramatic.

I'm not talking about you or your friend .... it's whoever feels the need to start these rumors.

If the pipeline crossed state lines, this can only be a Federal enforcement and that would NOT be hidden.  It would also be very dumb considering the events and how the Dummycrat spin machine is nearly imploding.

I don't know, sounds like something Carter, not Bush, would come up with.

Nonetheless, tag.

On second thought...seeing how rumors here have the ability to run like wildfire, especially when it concerns gasoline prices...I'll "let you know" after I buy a few thousand dollars worth of gas futures.  Should be worth about 10% for a week of speculation.
