Maybe Mark would have the liked the show better if the owners of the store had been a young, Haitian immigrant who is starting to explore his sexuality when Sergio, the head drag queen at the Ramrod, decides to purchase a handgun, and they delve into each others desires and dreams.
Written like a true liberal. You cry around guns, don't you Perigard?
OMG, an original idea for a TV show, I'll be watching. Maybe NBC will pick it up after they cancel Leno?
Are all liberals also Freudians? Look at the photo here and they quickly see that the man is using the pistola as an extension of .....
Mark: Maybe you'd like Lock 'n Load better with TV characters as customers. Here are 10 TV gunslingers who might visit that store:

Not a reality show. I love and live with the guy in the promos (maybe on next week?) who says he wants an assault weapon and (ha ha) works for the post office. ("In the second episode, one man identifies himself as a postal worker and requests the most “Terminator”-like weapon Ryan stocks.") His agent called him, he showed up, ad-libbed knowing full well it was for a pilot and had no intention of buying a gun. Reality sucks.
This guy is genius, the host that is, totally funny, totally interesting. No matter what you think of the show, you can't deny how cute he is, fun and totally likable. Why haven't we seen him before, and why can't we seem him so more? And if you live with the dork who wanted an assualt gun to hang on the wall, answer me why he has an "agent" in Denver. Liar.
