Free Republic

Because when you’re on a 12+ hour shift at a high-security political event in DC it’s probably not feasible, or even permitted, to go through the checkpoints and cordons to “go home” for your 30 minute break.

Can a private citizen be tried by the senate???

Putting aside the issue of fraud, demographics are not shifting in our favor. I don’t see any Republican winning the presidency for some time. There can’t really be an effective outreach to win over these voters either, with the media working 24/7 demonizing anyone to the right of Bernie Sanders as beholden to potentially violent domestic terrorists. When they have people sincerely believing that non-white conservatives are white supremacist sympathizers, well, good luck.

So it sounds like, if you’re driving on an interstate highway, you have to wear a mask even if you’re alone in your own vehicle, and even if your destination in not out-of-state?

West Virginia is pretty conservative, why does this guy keep getting elected?

Kelly will be a fixture for as long as he chooses. We lost Arizona and Georgia, and we ain’t getting them back. Abrams will be Georgia’s next governor. North Carolina will swing full blue as well, and Texas will fall sooner rather than later.

Conservatives are losing ground. We may well be 100 million strong, but if we’re 48% of each critical state’s population we may as well not exist.

USCP’s .gov website still has a statement up saying that he died.

This state is, in many ways, worse than California.

Just a variant of the alt-right. It’s hard to tell where irony ends and sincerity begins with these sorts. They don’t consider themselves conservatives.

I guess they were about to fire, then. The dead body lying on the floor would indicate a willingness to do so, no?

Pause at 0:18. The officer has a suppressor on the end of his gun by the look of it. I would think a suppressed carbine would be quieter than an unsurpressed pistol in that enclosed space.

They put a hurting on the Germans as well. The Germans had 30,000 killed and twice that many wounded and missing. There were French fortifications that held out against heavy odds until the surrender, even as the Germans swept around them.

Many of the “French troops” fighting in Indochina were German.

To this day the FFL still uses some slightly modified Nazi marching songs.

Red states like Georgia?

I agree with that, unlike 1994, there will be state-level resistance in a handful of places, South Dakota or Texas maybe, for example. But you won’t be “safe” if you happen to live in one of those states, and most of it will be bluster. Federal law enforcement will operate with impunity, local and state state law enforcement may not assist, but they won’t prevent either. If a state resident of some resistant state is arrested the governor will bluster and demand that “something be done!” And then it’ll drop out of the news.

“So you are just going to surrender them?“

What you or I or any given person could or should or may or may not do under the circumstances isn’t a topic of discussion for a public web forum. I will say this — I have dutifully complied with FFL, NICS, serialization, CCW, etc. I’m guessing most of us, perhaps you personally, have as well. To hop into the pot and then get defiant when it comes to a boil is just silly. We could have saved ourselves this trouble a lo time ago by fixing the laws while it was still somewhat feasible.

We have allowed ourselves to no longer be secure in our persons, houses, papers and effects — our natural rights shouldn’t be predicated upon who happens to control the senate during a given term but we let it get to this point. The whole “boating accident” gag just rings a bit hollow to me at this stage.

When an ATF agent with a list of every “it’s not registration” 4473 form you’ve ever signed and sales records for every 80% lower you’ve ever bought shows up at your door, tell him that. I’m sure there will be belly laughs all around and he’ll leave, never to bother you again.

”Millions will refuse the "registration" process.“

I agree, but also millions won’t. Bear in mind that a number of states already have some form of explicit or de facto state-level registration that makes it impossible to hide. Additional millions will simply give up. Right now, California residents can drive to Arizona or Nevada to play with their semiauto toys. Massachusetts resident can drive to New Hampshire, etc. When the ban hammer comes down everywhere, many people will decide the juice ain’t worth the squeeze, give up their toys and find a new hobby.

” Will CWII start before they attempt confiscation?”

No. I have oceanfront property just outside of Phoenix that’ll sell before there’s any kind of wide scale civil conflict or even significant unrest in this country.

When Kamala Harris casts the tie breaking vote to pass a new AWB, and millions of people give up their firearms rather than jump through the federal registration and licensing hoops that will be put in place.

She succeeded in throwing her vote away. Enough people pull such a stupid stunt and the Dems won’t even need to steal it.

But, I have a feeling the same idiots who facilitate a legitimate dem victory by refusing to vote for the senators on the ballet will be the loudest saying it was stolen.

What a lot of people here want is for Perdue and Loeffler to lose, for some insane reason or another.
