Millions of each of us has his guns, ammo, prepper supplies, reloading equipment, and goes to the range regularly. But how are we to be transformed into a coherent armed force that governments bent on tyranny (CA, NY, NJ, WA, etc.) cannot afford to disregard? I don’t know.

Open conflicts always begin with some sort of signal event that triggers a general call to arms. Different people, in different times and circumstances, resond to triggers unique to them.

It's true that the armed patriotic right is unorganized now, but some triggering event that is unique to us and our times, could cause us to quickly organize ourselves into regional militias.

From there, it would likely take a second, more serious event, to trigger us to stand and face an imminent threat.

I think it all comes down to perceived level of threat. So far, most patriots have not yet perceived a level of threat that warrants organizing militias. There's a strong likelihood that will change, given the ever increasing threats to life, liberty, and country, from the left.

Totally agree. Would it be safe to say that most owners of tactical rifles are motivated by their possible future need should tyranny arise? And in this IT age one doesn’t need a Paul Revere to warn us that the redcoats are marching, just an Iphone.

Unlike the “Fudds” who are said to only care for the right to their fine shotguns & hunting rifles. AR-15’s? Oh please,...how gauche.
