I predict that...

...within the next seven days the American National Rifle Association will launch a campaign calling for the end of the war in Iraq due to the critical ammunition shortage that it is causing amongst the country's gun nuts and police. (Note: there is some considerable intersection between those two groups.) Delays in delivery could be as great as a year in some places.

Once the war is ended the NRA will then lobby for the establishment of a national Strategic Ammunition Reserve. The government will buy all sorts of ammunition for the reserve during the limited times of peace (i.e. when a Republican isn't in the White House) and then these stocks can be released to America's millions and millions of gun owners during time of war to prevent this terrible situation from recurring.

I just hope that America can make it through the summer without the absolute collapse of this unarmed republic!
