I think you're probably right. Any "flashpoint" of "old America" you see will end up more like Waco.

Disagree. It could be the Lexington & Concord moment that is likely coming.

Anyway, the only true revolt possible when the moochers overtake the makers will be "Atlas Shrugging."

Disagree. That is one option, not the only.

If we have passed the point of no return, then there can be no Alamos that lead to a San Jacinto victory.

Disagree. If we have passed the "point of no return," (whatever that means) numerous options might be on the table.

So to the extent guns can be used to protect your family while the looters loot, that's about it.

Disagree.

Turning directly to a Constitutional Restoration movement as in Mexican Texas I just don't think can work in the modern age...in other words, I don' think we'd see much better results than the thugocracies that filled the voids in Afghanistan, Iraq, "Palestine," Egypt, Libya etc..

Disagree. We are not those countries.

DT, are you saying it isn’t going to be interesting how the media digests the new Atlas Shrugged film coming out this next month???

Or just Sam’s musings, in general??? ;-)

I would venture to say that in the future if the bubble bursts, there will be thousands of “individual” Alamo’s and thousands of “individual” San Jacinto’s...

My hope is that we can avoid such an environment, and we need to fight to keep the civil side of our citizenship duties at the polls...When we lose that ability to have confidence in the outcome of those contests, then, we may have a real problem...

And we are heading in that direction of uncertainty at a rapid pace...
