preparing for acts of domestic or international terrorism

By "stockpiling guns and/or ammunition?

What a nice Catch-22.

Boy are we all in trouuble. But we aren't alone, since trouble cuts both ways.

Our government: Soon to be the mafia writ large.

The Mafioso would probably be offended being compared to our current Government.

Let’s call this what it is: an attempt by the Neo-Nazi Party to implement their version of Neo-McCarthyism.

It’s laughable... the dems are so often shrieking about the percieved injustices of McCarthyism, but are willfully ignorant of the fact that McCarthy was never, ever wrong. This bill has so many intentionally gray areas, and so many chances for the utterly unfettered abuse of power, it makes my head spin.

“People know once the touch the 2nd amendment they have nothing left to lose except their freedom.”

If we lose the 2A we lose what little freedom we still have left.

The 2A is the real game changer. The attempt to abolish the 2A will be what sets off the next revolution/civil war.

Looks like more and more “Henry Bowman’s” are going to be popping up.

None too soon, either.

What's a "Henry Bowman"?

What's a "Henry Bowman"?

Read the book, "Unintended Consequences" - you'll know who Henry Bowman is, and a bit more.

[Still Thinking]

Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.), and Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), have been among this not-so-elite group.

I guess the list does work.

Breakthrough on the Authorship of Obama's 'Dreams'

Acorn Role in Census Challenged Susan Collins is absurd.

Justices Rule for White Firefighters in Bias Case SCOTUS opinions for the decision - comment# 1

Betraying the Planet Paul Krugman went nuts!

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.

I was just wondering how you could find out if you were on their list. Everytime I fly, I get pulled out and searched. I am your typical white haired grandmother, but I sure get searched. Bet I’m on a list somewhere.

Shock Value, to garner public support.

Well, THIS ought to get me on 'the list'... A Fourth of July Tea Party Speech

Every one of you must resolve to go down swinging, if you must go down. Make it expensive.

“If a person were to be refused “permission” to purchase a firearm or explosive, and if they subsequently filed a lawsuit in federal court to find out why, the government still could keep such information secret. In other words, the attorney general could deny a U.S. citizen the ability to own a firearm, and never have to give the reason.”

This is not correct. It has long been held that the government may not use “secret evidence” to deny a person’s rights or to convict that person of a crime. Of course, that will do you absolutely no good when you are trying to buy a firearm.

Looks like more and more “Henry Bowman’s” are going to be popping up.

I really can't see any way around doing it Henry's way anymore. I really can't.

God help us all.

It's comforting to know that Honduras is providing a nice environment for those dinosaurs who still covet freedom. For a while there I thought it was hopeless.

Hmmmm....Argentina is showing some "green shoots" of freedom as well.

[Freedom2specul8]

Thank you for the pings, am forwarding this to everyone I can!

[DCBryan1]

Make your list of local critters.
