PAT BUCHANAN: There are three million ArmaLite rifles, those Bushmaster types, out there right now. And people are buying them like hotcakes, every gun show the sales are up enormously. Forty-one percent, they were up in December -- for last December, which was a record year. John, what is common though, Eleanor [Clift] is correct, the push is going to come on three things. Grandfather in the assault weapons that are here now, to try to outlaw assault weapons, outlaw magazines that carry more than 11 or 12 bullets, and also background checks at gun shows.

JOHN MCLAUGHLIN: With no Second Amendment, Congress could pass a law, as limited as this: banning assault rifles or as sweeping as prohibiting all private firearm ownership and requiring the surrender of all privately held firearms.

BUCHANAN: There would be a revolution in this country!

MCLAUGHLIN: Baloney! That doesn't mean you can't own one, but you have to put it in first and then go try --

BUCHANAN: There are 270 million guns in this country right now, John, and there adding to them at a rate of 16 million a year.

Maybe you’re just being facetious for the benefit of making a point?

That.

Haven't seen a Liberator except in a museum .. the concept was the intended focus, whether the instrument be a sheet metal .45, $15 knife, $2 icepick, or your junk drawer screwdriver.

Untold thousands of tons of prime hardware, paid for thru tax extortion, are out there in the hands of wannabe fascists who usually need a FAQ to tie their shoes - if they can bend over that far.

Think of it as the Patriots Pawn Shop .. most items redeemable via an appropriately inserted screwdriver, etc.

ps: it's my understanding that tens of thousands of Liberators were air-dropped in Europe, beginning in ~1942, especially in France.

“ps: it’s my understanding that tens of thousands of Liberators were air-dropped in Europe, beginning in ~1942, especially in France.”

Maybe so, but I think there would be some pretty wild and wooly stories of capturing Mausers from Germans, and then artillery and armor.

This is where I’m scared : They DO know what’s coming !

Even a fool would see that the recent purchases are enough to call off the attack. The numbers we are working with are in the millions. Even if a program has a 99% success rate (i’m a project manager, that’s a perfect, 6-sigma result. A result that no team of over 100 people or the government can hope to achieve) they are still up against the largest standing army in the world.

Compound that with Oath Keepers, enlightened, and the fact that we aren’t all farmers (We are technology experts, planning experts, and VERY intelligent and independent thinkers).

We are actually highly trained. We are bound by our love of family (Giving us a line in the sand) our love of Country (Giving us vitality) and our love of God and all that declaring this country has under God (giving us unity and hope).

We are not goat herders in the mountains. We are satellite engineers, radio operators, cameramen, reporters, craftsmen and analysts. Never has such an off-balanced battle ever occured in history.

I’m not the only one to realise this. To make this effort work, they must turn the full brunt of a military that (hopefully) wouldn’t follow that order.

Also, please tell your friends and family. Keep an eye out for Wesley Clark. That’s all we need right now.

***Why would they go ahead, if they know?***
