That right there is what happens when you don't get enough sleep or not enough sunshine. Those Alaskan days and nights will mess you up.

someone get those dudes some bran muffins, know what I mean? Just a wee bit "stuffed up".....

Sad thing is, people like US are often portrayed as being the same as people like THEM.

Legitimate gun rights advocates have almost as much to fear from those radicals as we do the do-gooders who would ban all firearms. Both groups pose a danger to our cause - just in a different way.

Yeah, but I use a feather pillow to ruff you up. Those guys are playing serious...with half a deck ......but serious.

So my thinking is this... You know how everyone says that if TSHTF they would migrate to a very rural area like say Alaska. But it's been my experience that those are the types of places that have the wierdos with guns. Just an observation.

Those are some weird and scary dudes

Attention. Attention. Everyone, the S has hit the fan. On to Alaska...

Three weeks later.

They have guns. Go back. Go back.

which reminds me of the French General peering through the binoculars at the valley below.
"My General, the division is ready for your command."
He puts down the field glasses and turns to address the entire division.
"We must attack now! There is a German in the valley. Attack!!!!!
Half way down the hill the general throws up is hands.
"Stop! Stop everyone! Retreat. There are two of them!!!!!!"

Gosh, I thought they were hurrying to surrender.

Rick, you messed up a good joke. You do it again and I'll ban you!

The king of England invades Scotland. He comes to a hill and his army is taunted by a lone Scotsman. He yells,"Come and get me ya English dogs!".

The king sends 25 men to kill him. After about 5 minutes the Scotsman stands on the hill and yells, " Is that the best you've got?"

So the kings sends 50 of his deadly soldiers. After a brief 10 minute battle the Scotsman appears on the hill to taughtn the king.

Then he sends 100 of his personal guard and a fierce battle can be heard waging for more than a half hour. After which an English man appears at the top of the hill mortally wounded. He yells, "Its a trick! There are two of them!"

It was a slam to the French. You see the French...oh, never mind. Now all the humor is gone.

Funny how I found out about this on the forums and not from anyone up here. Some of the rhetoric sounds convincing on paper, then you see these guys and really listen and then... yikes!
I googled Schaeffer Cox the founder of the organization and he was arrested a week or so before this event for choking his wife in their car! Nice guy to get in a gun battle against the feds with huh? These types are giving gun owning constitutionalists a bad name. One thing is for certian, people are at a boiling point with (take your pick of the top ten crisis at the moment) and something is going to give and it's not going to be pretty. Minutemen are massing on the Southern border on April 1st (or so the web would have you believe) and were told to come armed and ready. It is April 1st, so it could be a prank, but there are some upset, heavily armed peoples with the right intentions, just the wrong direction.

And the Americans are worried about Nukes in Iran! That is scary considering the firepower the US has. If that was to fall into the wrong hands it would be lights out, for everybody.

I dont see this happening.

Well said Ken.

If you look at our history it took radicals like Samuel Adams and John Hancock tempered by calmer heads such as John Adams for a revolution to work.

We have strayed quite a bit from the path our forefathers desired. Some had quite clearly seen that this was unavoidable.

It is unfortunate that some fantasize about a new revolution in this country. They more closely relate it the revolution fought against a foreign monarchy. Then they do what it will actually much closer resemble, that of our war between the states.

American against American, brother against brother, father against sons. It has a greater potential to become the bloodiest war in US history then it does in bringing about a return to revolutionary freedoms.

True freedom is responsibility. Realizing that as you granddaughter lies starving to death that no one owes her or you a hand and that only by forming a community of like minded people that you contribute to will give you have the comfort that others will aid you in your time of need. You can not legislate compassion. Your community decides what is acceptable freedom and what is not.

When we band into communities we give up certain individual freedoms for certain comforts. When those communities band together, further individual rights are lost. So on up the line. The further up the line you legislate away rights the more people that are affected and the greater opportunity for corruption and abuses.
