THE FOUR RULES

1. ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED.

2. NEVER POINT YOUR MUZZLE AT SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO DESTROY.

3. KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET AND YOU ARE READY TO SHOOT.

4. KNOW YOUR TARGET AND WHAT'S BEYOND.

Winston Churchill said
"A GENTLEMAN, SELDOM, IF EVER, NEEDS A GUN.
BUT WHEN HE DOES, HE NEEDS IT VERY BADLY!"
Si Vis Paceum Para Bellum

Sam Adams, more than beer

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen”
Samuel Adams

Lincoln on power

"We must prevent these things being done, by either congresses or courts — The people — the people — are the rightful masters of both Congresses, and courts — not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert it —" Abraham Lincoln

Blue, let's think about this

A great rant from over at Blue's Blog. Go read it all. It's a bit long, but he hits on a lot of points of what is wrong with this country. Including placing the blame firmly where it belongs, on our so called education system. 

"Nope, they can't take a joke. Yep, they have all the neat toys." 
I was responding to a comment from my friend Old Bob this morning when my old tired mind started to run away with itself.  Maybe it is being caused by the coffee and jelly toast?  This is an extension, if you will, of my thoughts to Old Bob.  This is my mind running away with itself...


~~~~~~ 
The one thing that you have to remember is that the force that they will ultimately have to use against us is made up of our sons and daughters, nieces and nephews, our grandchildren...  It is made up of our neighbors and friends, their sons and daughters, nieces and nephews, their grandchildren...  These are the people who played games in our yards when they were themselves children.  The kids who had milk and cookies in the kitchen with our kids after school.  The kids who participated in Friday night sleepovers and watched Saturday morning cartoons in our living rooms.
When push comes to shove, when the shit finally hits the fan, when "real world ugly" is at our doorstep in a big and meaningful way, the force they intend to use against us won't have the stomach to do what the gubbmint will want them to do.   Let me give these people who will have to "take us out of the picture" a little more credit...  There aren't enough of them who are depraved enough to do what the gubbmint will need them to do.
And the gubbmint knows that.

Take a second look at the TSA and the the DHS or even the Park service and tell me they won't act. Hitler knew how to select the right personality too. There are those who only think OF themselves, with a F@ck you attitude, and they hired a massive amount of them. It will get ugly.
