It’s not fear for many of us but preparation.
RANDOM THOUGHTS on your posting:
Militias need to be formed again and drills again reinstituted. Ammo is one thing, but the discipline to come together in an organized way to meet the foe is also needed. (By the way, if Washington could have had accees to those neat 16 mile 2 way radios that one can buy(2 for 10 dollars), the Rev. War would have been ended real quick; the point being, stock up on portable radios 2 way and other wise)
I think the country has become unwieldy and needs to be separated into several smaller countries or barring that, an increase of the Representation side of the government. A congress of 535 just can’t represent a country of 320 million adequately. It’s too easy for one party to get control over parts of the country that they really shouldn’t be in control by the use of gerry mandering.
I think the congress should be tripled in size in terms of its congessional districts and reps, and the senate should be increased to 150, with third senator being directly appointed by each state legislature to give a stronger voice for states rights. Our two party system is distorted because we are actually underrepresented!
