***If it was a bunch of Redneck boys Morris Dees would have the BATF all over them.****
Several years ago I and several of the men I work with got together to shoot semi-auto rifles on some private land just for fun. We jokingly called ourselves “Ruy”s Raiders’.
Then, near here, the BATF busted a hardened member of a so-called “Militia” group responsible for a murder in another state using a full auto machine gun. We had never heard of this man or his “group” who all later went to prison. My hair stood up when I heard they were also looking for someone named, Ruy Raider.
I declared Ruy’s Raiders “defunct” and we never got together to shoot again.
It is worse than you imagine, there really are “lists” and you don’t need to be a terrorist to get on them. I don’t rock the boat so much in my old age, reckon I’m still listed anyway. I don’t lose any sleep over it.
