all this saber rattling is what makes people think that we’re violent. it discredits us. if you REALLY think that the americna people can outfight the american military, remember tienenman square. think machine gun, tank, grenade.

think that most sane people will never raise their weapons on an american soldier, no matter what.
that fourteen million shrinks very fast when sanity and reason come into play. how many Randy Weavers are out there?

the rhetoric being spouted here is what gives our enemies credibility when they claim that we’re the dangerous ones. you might think you’re being clever, or stouthearted, but in reality it is the oak tree that breaks in the storm when the willow bends, and survives.

if you want to die for a cause, you might be surprised who you may find by your side, but if you want to kill for a cause, you might hear crickets chirping for all the suopport you’ll get.

Tienenman Square is a very bad example, as the Chinese people are not armed in any way. We are! Let’s say those 14-20 million deer hunters shrink down to only 10%. That’s 1.4 to 2 million armed citizens. No army in the world would be able to pacify that many “insurgents” in any realistic time frame, and that’s just the DEER HUNTERS!! I ask again, did you ever serve in uniform?
