Good one. Wow, for a minute I thought I was back in the Twilight Zone with Rod Serling. :)
We’re really not out of it.
The militia has become etiolated and almost perished.
I’d like to see more places, instead of no-guns signs on their door, show “militia prepared” signs.
We followed leftist/”liberal” ideas and farmed out all our militia needs to Andy Griffith and Barney Fife. Then when the inevitable results of doing this bore their inevitable fruit, we then hated the people and even the things that were left of the militia.
