I agree 100%. Did you read the other article,posted earlier, regarding the 3500 mile area now off limits because of the violence?

But in that article, What I found encouraging was that Vallely is fairly mainstream and that interview was pretty bold imo. It’s going to take someone of that caliber who has direction. Then patriots will group together. (getting back to your earlier comment that people won’t get off their a**es)

No, I didn’t see that. I’m actually still on this article. (Some good stuff that I had to interrupt myself to comment on.)

What really “scares” (though that’s not the best word... maybe ‘concerns’?) my is the law being [mis]used to make everyone ‘criminals.’ As Ayn Rand said: “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.”

Here in New Mexico there’s a prime example of something that should NOT be illegal being illegal (which I’m trying to fix); our State Constitution says:
No law shall abridge the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms for security and defense, for lawful hunting and recreational use and for other lawful purposes, but nothing herein shall be held to permit the carrying of concealed weapons. No municipality or county shall regulate, in any way, an incident of the right to keep and bear arms.

Yet, despite this clear prohibition of the restriction of the Citizen’s right to keep and bear arms (for security & defense) by law there is a law restricting just that right on University Grounds:

On School Grounds:

[Technically] Possessing a Handgun:

So, as you can see there are enough State Statutes in play that, if they wanted to, they could bust me for “breaking state laws” even though said laws are contrary to both letter and spirit of the State Constitution which I quoted to you.
