First shot has already been fired. Several times. Not by “our” side either. They are perfectly willing to kill us if we dare to live free of their arbitrary edicts.
Why should we be so afraid to return the favor?
Like I said, DC, I’m not going to fire the first volley. Those of us willing to do so need to “Go Bowman” in order to effectively gut the enemy. At this point, we’re a bunch of gun owning, Bible holding “bitter clingers” who are waiting for a General to lead them.
