Well stated Randy!

Thank you , thank you very much.

I think that as a whole, the American people are a patient lot, often taking MUCH more that we should. BUT when we've had enough, words of the Famous Sailor come to mind. "Enough's enough and enough is TO much! Toot Toot!

Randy,
Don't misintrepret what I'm saying.

My point is that we're living quiet "back to the basics" lives centered around God, family, and farm. Its a simple world view that cuts out main-stream-media, the talking-heads, and every lying sack of excrement that holds an office in the neo-fascist / control freak government.

I, like most liberty minded people, have a line in teh sand. I've made a mature decision about what my line is and what I'll do if anyone crosses it. Suffice to say, they'll find themselves on the wrong side of a well equipped, properly trained, and excessively motivated enemy if any harm ever comes to my family or if they try to take my property.

HOWEVER, I'm done trying to convince people for their need of self-preservation. I'm exhausted from trying to show people how little difference there really is between Demopublicans and Republicrats (as a non-neoconservative Constitutional Libertarian I view virtually everything going on in the state and federal governments as unconstitutional).

My solution is to live simple, keep my head down and be watching vigilantly.

They fear the unknown more than the known. Look at the endless wars in the middle east. Do they have a uniformed military to defeat? No - they have and fear a barely namely, loosely collected, leaderless group of goat farmers. Be like that or be like the rusty nail that sticks up.

You know what happens to the rusty nail that sticks up, don't you? IT GETS HAMMERED DOWN.

You want to know what I think about this entire topic - just look at the "LOC" under my avatar.

We're being watched? What ever gave you that idea.

I for one do not plan to just sit on my a$$ and watch the country I put my life on the line for while in the military and now when I keep the ones that we need the weapons to protect ourselves from locked up (and getting there free cable gyms food and education) go down the tube without a fight.

My new paint job on my 82 chevy diesel.

Man, i like that! I grew thinking that was the way it was. But sadly I don't think the kids coming up these days understand "God, Guts and Country.

Nice paint job!

That looks great!

Arch, I understand where you are coming from. The frustration and everything. I am very thankful for all that you have contributed to this forum and also for the insight, the "Hints" and tips you have given me.

Live your Life Brother as God intended it. Peaceful and happy, harming no one but trying to help others, until they show they are no longer worthy of that help.
