Well said, Mister Head. America has been under serious attack by subversives, terrorists and criminal elements since the 1960`s!
However, its not panic time yet. Deputizing and arming citizens like it was the old west, won't solve some very deep rooted problems we face in America today. But it may come to that in the end. Let's have some faith in US law enforcement and our military capabilities. Personally, I will remain vigilant, ready for anything and properly armed.
