Political dilemma

Politicalparties1_2Are you a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican?

Here is a little test that will help you decide.  The answer can be found by posing the following question:

You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children.   Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a .40 caliber Glock, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.
What do you do?

Democrat's Answer:

Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! 
Does the man look poor or depressed  Are you a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican?
Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
Could we run away?
What does my wife think?
What about the kids?
What does the law say about this situation?
Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?
Why is this street so deserted?
We need to raise taxes, have paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
This is all so confusing!  I need to debate this with some friends for few days and try to come to a consensus.

Republican's Answer:

BANG!

Southern Republican's Answer:

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click.....
(sounds of reloading).
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click
Daughter: "Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips or Hollow Points?
Son: Git-r-Dun Pop! Can I shoot the next one!
Wife: You ain't taking that to the Taxidermist!

Thanks Phyllis

Stupid. Dumb and divisive politics. "Group A enjoys taking care of problems, while Group B would rather fret and debate impotently." You could easily reverse the joke and have the Republican shooting an innocent convenience store clerk or hanging a black person next to a burning cross, while the Democrat is rational and sane. But extremizing things and applying blanket statements do nothing but increase the divisiveness in this country. Hey, divide and conquer -- is the person who wrote this joke an anti-American terrorist???
