That's one of the biggest problems facing us- no one has the guts to tell these people where to stick it. We are in a very un-popular position these days; it seems that anyone not going with the flow is ridden into the dirt. It is very hard to stand-up for something, with all the flak you have to take.
Hell, I've been called a survivalist nutcase, freak, menace, nuts, crazy, insane, selfish, you name it.( most of us here have been called all that and worse) Of course, nothing worth doing is easy, especially taking the stands that we are. They see us as a speed-bump on the road to their socialist paradise, and they will try to run us right over. To not conform is our biggest sin, in their eyes.
