And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

Pol Pot’s army was made up of youngsters. Those kiddos excercised great judgement when using their arms. /S

Why drag anybody? The asshats picked the wrong targets on 9/11. They don’t realize that the un is a bigger threat to the freedom of the world (not that radical islamists care about freedom) than the US will ever be. NOW they’re pissin’ me off. Who (rhetorical) gives a crap what spankee da moon has to say? He lives in the lap of luxury with armed security. No worries for him eh? Well, guess what spankee. Most of us are our own security so, no you can’t have my weapons. That is if I had/have any.

If those over 55 aren’t fit to have firearms, then they aren’t fit to have positions in government.

Those 55 and older should be given land mines, bouncing Bettys and claymores. Older folks have the time, patience and experience to skillfully plant things and engage in complex home remodeling.

You don't think this sounds like a joke?
"The optimal self-defense posture for seniors would include such items as a rape whistle or high-decibel air horn, quick-strike road flares, an electronic medical alert system, a cellular telephone with a large display, morphine injections, neon or glow-in-the-dark armbands, a mesh vest, a pith helmet with flashing headgear and a solar-powered radio, said Dr. Betti."

Sadly NO. They cite "Dr. Michael Betti from the John Hopkins Center for Public Health Preparedness". While I can find the Center, I cannot find ANYTHING on a Dr Betti (or Bette) associated with it. My vote is that it's April Fools

At 20 I may hesitate to go against an oppressive government, at 60 I may not. And I, at 74, have selected my targets of opportunity!!!

I, for one, would like to see the citations for the “pools of research” that form the basis for this absurdity.
I think what they really mean is that they fear the OFF (Old Fart Faction - TM) of the American society - the ones of us who remember what freedom really is and have nothing to lose in coming to its defense.
May I suggest that Mr. Ban Ki-moon take his “treaty” and the rest of the UN and move the whole thing to North Korea and then let the North Koreans foot the bill for running this commie/socialist/facist organization. The vacant UN building in New York could then be turned into low income housing. Think Cobrini Green East.....It would be an improvement over the present tenants.

The older I get, the less I have to lose. At 20 I may hesitate to go against an oppressive government, at 60 I may not.
At 80 you know damn well I won't!!!

Yep, this one has the look of April Fools about it. Nonetheless, for all the other stupid stuff that the UN really does do, I say...
Pith on them.
