And how we burned in the camps later, thinking:  What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?  Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?  The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

One of the concepts taught in women's self defense courses is that some decisions **must** be made beforehand. For instance, I have personally decided that I will not be forced into a car. A perp will have to kill me in the parking lot. I will resist and attack him with every ounce of energy that I have.

Well....During the Kosovo crisis, I made a decision. I will **never** allow the men in my family to be dragged out into the street to be shot. They will have go through me first. I, personally, (little ole grandmom me) will resist with everything that I have. They will have to kill me before I would let that happen.

I will **never** allow myself to be rounded up and sent to a concentration camp. I will resist. This is an oath that I have made to myself and to God.

It is time, that we as citizens face this decision and make that decision beforehand.

By the way....If tyranny comes to the U.S. they won't use trains. They will round up the sheeple with big yellow school buses.
