Carry - I kid you not my friend! I have followed F&F from the get go and am thoroughly versed in the matter. My point is that talk is cheap and these fools are full of it. Let’em cross the line of actually attempting the enforcement of any legislation “with teeth” in violation of my 2nd amendment rights. Their silly ease the agenda upon us is childish. We are an armed citizenry for a purpose. The Repubs cry “we can’t touch Obammie for fear of starting a race war”. So they became accomplices in the illegal occupation of the White House. The Socialist are fully aware that pissing off a few million marksmen ain’t too damn bright. Yeah, fire up your Boy Scouts Civilian Militia Obozo. If they step on these toes they’ve steps on a few million others that are locked and loaded. We know how to take care of our own. Listening DOJ? I’m full of piss and vinegar today anyway
So obammie has now named himself judge and jury FUBO!
Man doth not live on piss and vinegar alone, nor is ammo terribly nutritious. Try going to war against the US government without logistical support. In most urban areas today, all they would have to do to wreck mass havoc is cut the power and blow a half dozen roads. Within days there would be no food, water, sewerage, or gasoline. What good are your guns at that point? The few who are prepared would be so dispersed as to be mopped up easily.
Believe it or not, the logistical counter-strategy was invented 3,500 years ago, published in the most popular book in the world, and we still don't get it.
"I owe the People my judgment, not my vote [compliance]" = "What-everrrr, I'll do what I want!!" </Eric Cartman>
Didn't work out.
“Is he deliberately looking for a confrontation with the citizenry?”

I’ll take the liberty of answering that with another question. I don’t know you or know anything about you, if I saw you on the street, walked up to you and spit in your face, kicked you in the shin and called you everything I could think of other than a child of God would you think I was trying to start a fight with you?
No, I think you underestimate them. Indians were pretty well adapted to the land too and would have driven the white man off the continent easily, without smallpox and influenza.
Is your counter-strategy a reference to Megiddo or Jericho?
To quote Patton, "Fixed fortifications are a monument to the stupidity of man." So my answer would be "neither," although the central principles of the examples you cited are absolutely pertinent.
The core of G_d's strategy is Shemitta. It was an integrated social, economic, environmental, and military plan, with the key being but one verse. The problem is that, although the system is politically aggressive, it is defensive in nature militarily in that one must be sovereign over the territory in order to execute it. During the First Temple period it was never even tried. Once they'd been exiled (with the term ironically set by the number of Sabbaths for the land they'd ignored), and after the return from Babylon when Ezra and Nehemiah found the Torah, had the Jewish people even discussed executing the system, their Persian, Greek, and then Roman suzerains would have killed every rabbi in Israel. The historic translation of the key verse was (in my judgment) hidden then and has been mistranslated ever since. Translate the Hebrew for Ex. 23:11 literally, and then apply it rigorously onto the rest of the Torah, and said key verse acts like a catalyst in a chemical reaction. It's amazing.
