We 'think' the riots and anarchy will occur next year after sequestration hits, and before they can do the gun registration. We also 'think' the cities will take the brunt of the rioting, and fly over country will basically be spared other than the 'drive through' attempts to loot/rob. But concur it will be DEFENSIVE in nature!

Those who never believed in guns, will be packing. Either way, fewer people in the world, means less for the government to take care of! Did you hear how many people have become armed citizens? . . . Since the massacre? Surprised Obama has lasted this long! I didn't think he would last a full term! As to the next guy going in. .He had better bring a large shovel. We have come too far to turn around now. Romney is only as good as his money +-+ --till it runs out. If he straigtens this economy out, it won't be the poor people paying the highest taxes. There was a little short guy with a strange mustache, ruled his country with an iron hand. And he Did believe in population.control. Less people, less fodder. We can't all go out in a Blaze of Glory.kingturkeyoakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02332702906050543615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244590063851118977.post-64358557676791572702012-07-25T10:03:27.504-04:002012-07-25T10:03:27.504-04:00Additionally, when the Revolution started, the mil...Additionally, when the Revolution started, the military forces of the states were solely militia. You had large numbers of locally organized and trained armed groups. They rallied when needed, such as at Lexington, Concord and on the route back to Boston. These same groups were the initial components of the Continental Army. That type of military organization does not exist today. Instead, we have a professional army and individual gun owners. Most importantly, that professional army is constituted to defend the nation not the individual citizens of the nation.Ragnarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244590063851118977.post-8756976660391728582012-07-25T09:58:29.624-04:002012-07-25T09:58:29.624-04:00I listen to "Radio Free Redoubt" and I h...I listen to "Radio Free Redoubt" and I heard the saying, if Obama wins we hit a brick wall at 100 MPH. If Romney wins, we hit a brick wall at 80 MPH. Either way, were hitting a brick wall. <br /><br />I also really believe that as long as we stay on this path, this country will go bankrupt like Greece and things will spiral out of control. Many factions will drive this country into "Balkanization" It will look like one big nationwide "Hurricane Katrina" event. Fema will of course be overwelmed, fema camp startups will fail due to riots within the camps etc. Guards will be abandoning thier post in favor of themselves and thier families. <br /><br />I am do not want any of this to happen, I do not want this coutry and the Constitution to slip into the history books with the "Magna Carta" and "Code of Hannarabi" I believe the long term outlook is very bleak if we stay on this path of being in debt and rotting from within.<br /><br />We have become the Roman Empire in the waning days. The internet is the "Road Network" of Anciet Rome, We export our culture and wars overseas just like the Romans. Our culture suffers from simular "Pagan Sexual Perversions" and gluttony like ancient Rome (we call it Living Large and Supersize everything)<br /><br />Im sorry I wrote so much.
