I’m growing weary of Beck’s sanity. The man has gathered millions of dollars and followers, and he’s advocating what might be best for his family given the situation. I’d like to see the ATF agents make it up his driveway past the gate after ringing at the video console. If it were me, I’d never let them past that point. End of story.

Watch the news carefully. The government thugs aren’t stupid and they know that another Waco or Ruby Ridge under this administration’s watch will set off a firestorm of backlash. The Internet media, blogs, etc. were non-existent back in the 1990s. Nowadays EVERYONE has cameras and microphones, and they can be used to defend a person and upload government thuggery to the Internet quicker than those agents can rifle through your belongings.

Also, Beck has plenty of money to afford exorbitant bail. And make no mistake that the government will make bail unaffordable for a majority of Americans.

I’m sorry and sad to say that the only defense against this type of tyranny is an offense against the thugs who try to enforce it. At some point the enforcer numbers will dwindle and no one is going to volunteer to become target practice for a militia of volunteer riflemen.

“...the only defense against this type of tyranny is an offensive against the thugs who try to enforce it.”

LEOs aren’t so stupid as to be unaware of their existing rep as armed revenue collectors and their growing rep as killers of family pets & harassers of those who merely record their actions.

Are they ready to add “jackbooted door smashers” to their public image? Do they wish for the citizenry to regard all LEOs as hostile invaders, wherever they happen to appear?

#6 Yet again, well said! The Govt doesn't even have to haul anyone off to jail, just simply cuff them and remove all firearms for "investigation." It then becomes YOUR task retain counsel and attempt to go get them back, if they haven't been destroyed already and you get a subjective "fair market value" reimbursement for guns you can no longer legally replace.

Result: you've wasted time, you've expended money, and you have no guns.

Me too! This makes about as much sense as saying let's keep giving the ball to the other team until we wear the offense down".

NO thanks Mr. Beck. I'll take my chances with a good OFFENSE.

Have you watched his GBTV? It is very good and not to be confused with his radio show.
