I agree with you in that we are all left to wonder how many people would show up for a real bullets flying fight with the feds over the Constitution. In high school, twice, I looked around when the fists started flying and my buddy, each time, was nowhere to be found. So, similarly, some won’t show up but in the Revolutionary War about 25% of the populace were Tories and ran from the sound of the gunfire like the patriots. Same in the Civil War but less because deserters were shot if caught. So, it’s the same today. Poll after poll shows that 25% -29% support Obama on anything. Nothing’s changed.
In my case, I have recently had the 2nd Ammendment really impressed on me. I am temporarily living in a country where no one but the cops and thugs have guns. Worse than that, everyone, including the cops, judges and thugs are all related. So, robbing someone at gunpoint is a slap on the wrist! The perp is out on bond before the blood on the street dries. My condo complex has 3 guards at night. But, in reality, there are many of us here with assets and we all are just cannon fodder due to no 2nd Ammendment! A lady friend of mine was recently robbed. 3 amish types were the perps (surprise!). One put the barrel of his still smoking AK 47 to her face and ordered her to give him her cash and jewelry. Over a year later, she still gets the shakes when she thinks about it.
So, anyone that doesn’t think the 2nd Ammendment is worth dying for ought to hang out down here for awhile. I’m coming home! Soon. I hope not in a box.
Mercy
God bless
