What is your breaking point for a Revolution?

It's right here in the MD Gen ASSembly now, with things like the long gun transfer bill.

They can't even argue for a good reason related to public safety. They just want guns gone, and will impose every impediment to transfer and ownership that they can. The best reason they can offer is, "because we said so, and we're in charge."

Anyone who's sitting on their hands and enjoying the bliss of HRC not being elected will get what their ignorant selves deserve.

Our American republic is still very much in the state of social turmoil and political flux. That's the nice way of saying we are not very far from the brink of open and armed conflict between citizen groups. The great news is the idiots aren't likely to bring their brand of anarchy outside the cities. They have neither the organization, the will or the strategic wherewithal to project focused force beyond the near in suburbs. That's still a very bad scenario for our country BUT it does afford some level of protection to those of us who 1: have been preparing for the worst and 2: who live in more rational locales.

Speaking up and taking positive action is everybody's moral obligation. A civil war would spell disaster for the America we know and love. Sitting aside quietly and expecting the Trump administration to carry our water is intellectually short sighted and imo, flat out unpatriotic.

Prep. Speak out. Act. Prep some more.

Or don't. No skin off my arse. My redoubt is a long walk up a steep hill.

At some point, the real usefulness of the beltways round cities may become evident -- when it comes time to lay siege to the cities and cut off their food, fuel, and amazon.com deliveries. Then, they will discover that groceries don't come from Whole Foods and their ride to work doesn't originate at the Mercedes dealership or WMATA.

Given the logic behind the 4th circuit's ruling, it won't be long before they will be coming for those smooth bore muskets, since they were weapons of war! :mad54:

Just wait...

Its on now but its still the soft parade. Soon there will be real violence fomented by the domestic enemies that abound and the time for reasonable discourse has passed some time ago.

No one in this country is going to rise up and do a damn thing about a damn thing.

At least on our side.

The Left is ready, willing, and able to burn this country to the ground.

And team SHTF will idly stand by and let them.

Because we are inherantly law abiding and they are not.

Ever heard of "the shot heard round the world"?

That's exactly why. We're decent people.

But I see the government putting down any uprising from the Left.

Then introducing draconian measures that would ultimately rob all of us of our liberties going forward. To include massive restrictions on gun ownership.

Then the Left and the Right and the Center would have to join forces to get our liberties and our guns back.

I see that happening in sanctuary cities and states, which is why the progressive left and anarchist concentrate their efforts there. Soft targets and all that ...

But do you really think that real America will stand idly by and let it happen ?

Here in the PRofMD some people would move rather than fight, even if it's just to the Eastern Shore or Western MD. The urban/rural divide couldn't be any more sharply defined. As it was 150 years ago ...

Jim12 · Feb 25, 2017

Trump and the Republicans need to find ways to take the urbanites on head-on -- with capitalism, jobs, and crime-fighting.

iH8DemLibz · Feb 25, 2017

I don't see Red America building standing armies and going after the Leftist horde.

I've always believed the fighting would be more localized. Small towns and communities pulling their resources and setting up defenses.

As for urban center crapholes, that's where the most damage can occur. And that's where folks should aggressively fight back.

Packed cities would become a conflagration. Quickly. Arson and tall buildings would be hell on earth. Unimaginable congestion. No firefighters. No ambulances.

Folks would be praying roof Koreans.

TheGunnyRet · Feb 25, 2017

The Left is following the Nazi Fascist playbook...we all know this that is why we should be prepared as best as possible...The system is primed with the Leftist theology.

We are the working Class and because we believe in ourselves and the Laws that Govern us...we must remain vigilant and weary of these Aholes.

When this Fascist movement starts to effect our lives and livelihood then I believe there will a price to pay...

The Rural Areas have the advantage over the Urban and Cities because we can surround them and cut the lines of Supply OFF...STARVE and Destroy...

The Criminals will take over before the Fascists will...because they have UNDOCUMENTED ARMS...and the Anti-Gun Zealots have yet to figure this out...

The Left is focused on Gun Control but there are already 6 per person after the Obama RED TAG SALES...and the Left hasn't adjusted to that position...they are still focused on fighting from a reduced state.

The Breaking Point is Stressed but we have a Govt. that sees what we are now discussing and will migrate into a position of strength as long as we continue to push and support in everyway we can...

This is JMO...

I don't see that when the government IS the LEFT like our General Assembly and Balitmore's City Council, Howard County Council, all of Montgomery & PG gov't

An even better point.

Yet 99.99% of gun owners sitting around saying: Thank you, Sir, may I have another. Thank you, Sir, may I have another. Thank you, Sir, may I have another.

Annapolis does what it does because only 65 people, the same people, showed up in Annapolis this year to push back. Hardy a force for the Left to worry about.

PS: If America didn't take to the streets over the Socialist ACA, it will never take to the streets.
