>>all I’m saying is to be alert to what’s going on and have them hidden but easily accessed.
If it was 1950, I’d agree. But we have FLIR, GPR, metal detectors, sniffers, cell phone trackers, and variety of other tech gadgets to quickly find your guns and know that you were the one who hid them there.
I’m actually saying that its NOT an individual thing. They can’t hit us all at once. Once they start, each person can decide if they want to band together and fight (and risk death) or surrender.
On the other side of the government gun, each member of the military, police force, and especially the Guard have to make a decision if they will serve a fascist state or stand with their fellow citizens.
Who knows how it will shake out in the end (but I don’t have much faith in the people who will be the 17-45 demographic in 2020—see 10USC311). But, hiding your guns in the woods and waiting for that Glorious Revolution that will happen “one day, but not this day” is the same as surrendering.
I know that when I was in that age range and Clinton was president, I was in a Militia.
This is simplistic. It's really more detailed but they're ideas. Those devices wouldn't know what they were looking at. FLIR is infrared so unless your gun is hot, temp wise they're no use and don't see anything but heat. The only thing they could do is fly over areas looking for metal but it won't tell them what kind and if they're hidden vertically the signature footprint would be very small.
