I hate to say it, but I agree with you. Of course, I'd much prefer to win at the ballot box, to make the Democrapic Party a thing of historical ridicule, than to have to resort to the cartridge box.
I hope that the gun-grabbers understand the rage out there. Our sheep-like Canadian neighbors are just plain not registering guns (or are gumming up the system by registering glue guns, etc.), and this has the libs up there totally shocked - what will Americans do? Americans that are veterans in large numbers, Americans who have far more guns per capita (at least in the South and West), and Americans whose very freedom was born from the spilling of the blood of the soldiers of the "legitimately constituted authority" of the day. I'd not want to be on the opposite side of the 1 in 10,000 who take up arms - that would amount to some 8,000 riflemen (and -women), who would be a whole lot better motivated, trained and equipped than the "sniper" sickos that held the entire DC area hostage for several weeks. And if it is more than 1 in 10,000, then watch out!
As for metals, I have some gold, but I believe more in copper, brass and lead.
Having the latter will get you lots of the former, should push come to shove.
