Occasionally the tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants, from time to time, governments must be reminded that the people have the right and responsibility of protecting their collective liberties and freedoms. The government should fear it's people otherwise it might try to unduly control the people.

Great Quote By Thomas Jefferson.
Timothy McVeigh Was Wearing A T-Shirt Bearing That Quote When He Was Apprehended Fleeing The Scene 75 Minutes After The Oklahoma City Bombing.
That's Some Controversy Right There !!

It is getting to be that time again very quickly.
With some of these cities creating anti gun ordinances I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet.

Time will tell. Or will they come to their senses before it gets to that point.

At this particular moment in our history, it seems our "Liberties" are being given away by those calling themselves Americans. The only real protest about our government, and what it is or isn't doing, are being held by those demanding that our "Liberties" be taken. Namely speaking of the Second of course.
For me, an attack on our Constitution is an attack on America. It's an attack on me as an American. There's a thin red line in my world. Created by the blood of those who formed this country and who fought to protect it. It ain't been perfect, and it may never be, I just hope I can be half as brave as those who stood before me if that day comes.

There is a path to return to freedom in this country. The fantastically fore thinking founders gave it to us in a bloodless manor thru the convention of states. It only requires effort and determination of purpose.
The federal beast CAN be tamed.

America sets an example,..why do most countries request attention( via world politics),.they're gain?
We can't feed(in many forms) and shouldn't acknowledge most! What is so terribly wrong with a nation concerned
with gaining a firm footing with its own requests! We are a great nation,..the best,.anchor our foundation,.
most others will ask!
This next generation just seems to want to give our liberties away. So sad to see
its not just young people. we have done a very good job of eroding our freedoms as well. if you don't think so load your kids up in the bed of your pickup. don't put on a seatbelt and drive to the local hardware store. go inside smoking a cigarette and tell the clerk you need some dynamite to bust up some rock on your property so you can put a shed there.
you could just try building a new garage without asking the governments permission or call a gun store and tell them when they get your check in the mail to mail you that new pistol you were looking at.
