The secret service has said they want to talk with Ted Nugent about this recent comment. I don't know why they are so upset, you don't have to read very far between the lines to know what he meant. I know Mr Ted is quite capable of speaking for himself but I am sure he did not mean he was going to Washington and start shooting.
For the last few years there has been a lot of 'saber rattling' in Washington. There has been talk of weapons bans, semi auto, magazines and ammo bans, a few cases of free speech being squelched, mandatory health care etc. and basically a lot of our freedoms going out the window. A few of us are paying attention and taking note but many have not been overly concerned because they have not been too effected yet. This may change if Obama gets re-elected. He will then be a 'lame duck' and will go for broke to dismantle what is left of our country. What will you do if they ban your guns, they may start out by wanting you to register them but then shift to an all out ban (read history people) What will you do when they outlaw any anti government speech. What would you do if they raised your taxes and sent IRS agents to seize your property for non-payment.
By the way, the only real obstacle to Socialism in this country is the middle class, America is the 'inventor' of the middle class. Without the middle class you only have the wealthy and the poor, perfect environment for Socialism to thrive and be accepted. This is why some politicians play the class warfare card and I personally believe they strive to keep the poor down to achieve their goals and for the same reason seek to destroy the middle class.
Anyway, back to the intent of this post. What would/will you do if government tries to force you to give up what's left of your freedoms. I have never made threats and I wont start here but I can tell you with out the Second Amendment all you can do is bend over and say 'yes sir master'
This is what Ted Nugent meant, many of us like him will not give up our freedoms..... but I will add one option we will either be dead, in jail or in a bug out location planning or next move.
I agree it will be a class war civil war. Most of the rich wouldn't know what the hell to do. Maybe bring in some hired guns just like the old west.
ReplyDeletemmasse and Rob, could be but it will be very ugly.
DeleteIf, as mmasse and Rob said, this happens, it will be the end of America period. As it stands this isn't the same country in which I was born. By the way, any war between this countries citizens and the government would end very badly for 'the people,' and end very quickly. Believe what you want, but in this day and age with the governments power, both in force and equipment, is a no win war.
ReplyDeleteIt absolutely will be a no win situation. It would probably be the beginning of the end and would NEVER be the same again.
DeleteI agree with all of you. In that case my family and I will go off the radar and survive as long as we can. Nobody is taking my guns or my freedom. Bring it on Bastards!
ReplyDeleteHeidi, your best option is to fade into the distance and try and remain hidden.
DeleteBravo!
ReplyDeleteI'm really quite late on this one, but I'll add the following. I once said that it was pointless to bury your guns but I was a little off the mark.
ReplyDeleteInstead, it would be reasonable to say that you should bury all your guns but the one you have for home defence.
If the Gestapo come for it then give it freely (nothing too expensive I hope) but the very next day it's GAME ON for young and old!
Dig up those rifles and get to using them. you'll soon find you have more friends than you thought.

Ausprepper, kind of my philosophy. Thanks for checking in.
