The four tier defensive structure with active armed citizens linked with law enforcement is the main reason why Israel is so resistant to terror attack. But it takes two things America has not got.
First, an active ARMED citizenry,
Second an ACTIVE armed citizenry,
My guess is 99.999% of Americans would much rather the other guy guard the block, cause the trip to the lake or the movie is much more important, and besides, I don't have a nasty gun in the house because I am moraly superior...
That is why America is SO ripe for the damage from the attack that will take place nationwide when the infiltration movement is complete.
But one thing Americans do better than most any other country in the world is Adapt fast and have a very high sense of honor. One out of one hundred Americans is a hero waiting for his day, he just does not know it.
When the attacks come, and they will, the rare breed that is not so rare in America will come to the surface. They will be the Gun Toting Christian bunch, the same bunch of heros that won all our wars before, because of their self sacrificial willingness to risk it all to save a neighbor.
That is if the liberals don't have them all jailed for Hate Crimes first.

Well there's always this website:
http://www.citizencorps.gov/
...which is linked to Volunteers in Police Service:
http://www.policevolunteers.org/
And they have a link to our very own Sheriff's Posse:
http://www.policevolunteers.org/programs/index.cfm?fuseaction=dis_pro_detail&id=254
...of which I am a proud (armed) member. I would urge people to contact their local law enforcement agency rather than starting a separate program and trying to make the police department accept it. I never thought of myself as a law enforcement volunteer, but after joining up and being trained and working some details, I almost wish I had gone into full time law enforcement many years ago. It is very rewarding and lots of fun.
There are enough former veterans around that we could easily staff a gigantic force of volunteers if we really wanted to. The lefties would cry about "vigilantes" or whatever. Let 'em whine.
Michael Moore, Senators Schumer and Feinstein, and Phil Donnahue have been doing their best to put us in just such a position.
It's a good thing that Americans don't like to be told what to do.
