I know this isn't the kind of battle most of us want to fight; we would rather watch the talking heads slug it out on Fox News than stand on a street corner handing out campaign flyers.

Watching the political talk shows, CNN, FOX whatever is an absolute waste of time.

They are nothing but a charade of BS, with the same old insiders laughing it up, and collecting the entertainment big bucks

There are a probably a number of tripwires.

For instance, I imagine some will be upset when they are asked to pay an exorbitant special personal property tax on the firearms they own, or even to drop those pieces off at a government location.

I will be paying my firearm ownership tax in bullets.

The alternative to launching this kind of peaceful and political counter-attack is horrific. Right now sales of guns and ammunition are rising sharply. This reflects an intuitive grasp by grass-roots Americans of what history teaches may lie ahead.

Horrific? Maybe, but likely to happen, and perhaps necessary just as it was in 1776.

And then Obama will bring in the Chinese and Russians to bring our population under control.

Here’s hoping the military is on our side, but don’t count on the high brass.

Hopefully we’ll have better weaponry.

So is the physical border of the Revolution drawn somewhere between Rural and Urban America ?

“The sooner the democrats are removed from power, the better.”

Don’t exclude the majority of Republicans either. They’re just as guilty, and have to go.

Just think, firebomb or nuke the big cities and it’s all over.

Maybe we can get North Korea to do that.

Nuke our cities?

Uhmmm, sounds a bit harsh......?

Maybe we could just turn off the water, power and food for a few minutes instead ?

“As for the Constitution, call me when Amdendments 14,15, 16 and 17 have been repealed.”

Do you think that is likely to happen during your lifetime?

I think a time out and a good talking to is where we are headed...

That isnt going to work, people here are not going to knuckle to the government. Pay taxes, no way, they can piss off. I assure you that if this is attempted our guns are going out of sight, and when we need them they will come out blazing. We dont have a revolution until we have a haze of gunsmoke in the air.

No one is going to turn in their guns. A few pansies in the suburbs might, but the main population will just put them underground where they are safe and handy and where we can get to them as soon as we need them. The people are fed up with this crap and they are ready to fight for their rights. Odumbo had better keep a close eye on what is going on in HONDURAS because his name is next on the list. His brownshirt rule and martial law isnt going to work either because we are better armed than law enforcement or the military. The difference being that the donut rollers are going to soon figure that they dont get paid enough to go out to the country and die. The people are fighting for their rights and will die to protect them. That has always been what makes the difference.

“Here’s hoping the military is on our side, but don’t count on the high brass.”

I submit a very high percentage of the Armed Services will honor their oaths and that an even higher percentage of officers will honor their oaths.

Think I saw a movie once where the targets were wearing blue helmets.

And it will require a revolution by 10s of millions of actual Americans to correct the situation and return the nation to the people.

To be sure.

I was thinking about Pentagon high brass. The ones who are so in it politically that they might not see their way through.
