There are places and individuals where 13 firearms and even explosives possession would be a social norm. Obviously, this couple displayed behavior that made the possession an issue. They may be called survivalists, but they weren't very good ones. My Grandparents had extensive food supplies. Part of this was the then norm of buying fresh or seasonal produce and "putting it up." Another part was the memory of The Great Depression. I think the last jar of strawberry preserves was finally consumed a few years after my grandmother's passing. It may have been an over reaction to hard times, but it tasted better than gun cleaning solvent <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
