Thanks to all who responded to my post.

I guess I have some issues. I absolutely do try in the “men” department and, no, I certainly wouldn’t scare little children.

On the other hand, yes, guns do frighten me. I went ahead and checked out the idea of owning/learning how to use one. It’s very expensive!

I can hear the rejoinders: “That’s no excuse!”

Depends on what you are comparing it to. If you look at what gets spent on nonessential items, then realize that firearms are in fact essential items, they do not look so expensive.

Of course, you are right-—up to a point.

I earn $8.32 an hour-—it has a lot to do with limiting my options!

Dying harshly is cheap though. I almost did it once for free.

I miss the left kidney, but the spleen and I never really talked anyway.

Budget 10% of the next year's beer budget for a firearm and get armed.

You'll have to talk amongst yourselves about mine over my grave. ;) The coffee will be free.

I would be greatly surprised if the U.S.A doesn’t have the capability of degrading, or completely blocking any system it wants, anytime it wants to.

Considering that blocks around here can become an RF black hole any time I think it might be required.... yeah. The big boys have better toys than I do.

We're on the same footing there, except for hard electronics (which I don't need, and if I do, I'll just... sign them out, so to speak).

The first step is to just put one on you and carry it around.

While it is true that the world is different now than it was in the 1960's, that's the way I did it.

That approach has not failed me yet, and we're creeping on 60 years.

“If you elect a constitutional sheriff in your county, the SWAT team will never get to its intended target.”

What you’re forgetting is that the fed-SWAT team might just pay a “friendly visit” to your local sheriff _first_, and make him an offa he can’t refuse...

Which is probably just how it’s gonna go down, when the time comes...

The fed pigs already threatened that. The sheriff met the fed pig SWAT team with his SWAT team. The fed pigs ran away.

Thanks for playing.

What is it with some of you people who think that desk-bound federal employees who weigh 350 lbs or more will suddenly turn into muscle-bound Rambos when they pick up a glock?

What makes you think that fat federal slobs will be willing to go door-to-door confiscating weapons from Americans?

Do you really believe that fat federal slobs who have no battle experience and no infantry training can sweep across America and disarm 300 million Americans?

Did you watch the Waco tapes where the federal fascists surrendered to women and children 10 minutes into the firefight?

I’m really, really curious to read about why you think federal slobs are so tough.
