Everyone - take a breath, now sack up

Couldn't agree more!

I fully agree. We have to stand together to stop the leftest from taking over this country. If we do not stand up for the Constitution and rule of law we will end up under the thumb of these Socialist/Communists and this nation will not exist any longer. I can't believe what is happening to our country. This has been a plot by the Marxist and Communists since the 1930's. They have infiltrated our learning institutions and government. They have indoctrinated generations of students in our schools. Most young people now a days do not have the ability to critically think any longer. Plus they do not have any idea or knowledge of the civics of the United States of America. I just hope we have enough time to right the ship.

If it comes to the left attempting to take our firearms, you can bet they will do it with UN help.
No real American LEO or Military person will have the stomach to fire on its own citizens for refusing to comply. UN troops however, won't care. I'm almost 60, but if Paul rides at night and the word gets out, I'll be there.

If they turn blue helmets loose in the US, it will make fighting back a lot easier for many to stomach. The 3% will become the 30% and that's a game changer.

What does antimony have to do with this?

Everybody including George Washington thought Benedict Arnold was a patriot and hero until he left Major John Andre holding the bag and his noose.

Always fascinating to see them take a swing at a pitch.

And extremely low post-count people who have been here a couple years (or more). Fascinating indeed.

I didn't know this but according to the National Guard's own site they've been at every inauguration. The website shows 7,000 of them just in 2013. (https://dc.ng.mil/About-Us/Heritage/...ural-Heritage/) doing miscellaneous traffic control and support work. The disposition of this presence is certainly way different. I'm downtown almost every day and it's so strange to see.

If something happens, officials can say "See? We were right and ready!" and if nothing happens they can say the deterrent worked.

Just like my organic home made elephant deterrent has kept wild elephants out of my yard.

It's always about the antimony. Especially when your ex-wife calls.

Good post.

Not only have they indoctrinated generations of our children, but they've also carefully passed the torch to new leaders of their cause. They've been playing the long game for more than a century.

One unintended consequence of having liberty is that you don't necessarily think about it until something treads upon it. A long game can run under the radar, because the changes are incrementally small. Then, BOOM. At some point you wake up one day, and your country looks entirely different.

That is where we find ourselves today.
