".....for dozens of movements to come, not the least of which will be Britain and the US."
I have hope for the U.S.A., we are a well armed citizenry and tend to protect our community when pushed too hard.
The neighborhoods in New Orleans that took up arms to protect their property , in face of what the government was telling them, was a very good sign.
This may be happening in France, but if it comes to the U.S., it will be met with a different attitude. I am confident of this.
My wife pointed that out to me even as I wrote it. She's always right, and I think you are too.
"This may be happening in France, but if it comes to the U.S., it will be met with a different attitude. I am confident of this."
You can count on me. And this is another reason why we need to stamp out socialism in all its insidious forms, when we see it rearing it's ugly head in our country and within our communities.
Man, I hope people in power are paying attention to this. Haven't heard a peep out of Congress or the White House on this issue; and this has been going on for nearly two weeks!
Even John F-ng Kerry isn't talking about this, and he's as French as you can get for a Blue Blooded American. You'd think he'd be wailing, pulling out his hair, gnashing his teeth and rending cloth over this!
I agree. I think it will be quite different if it comes to America.
If it comes to the US, many of us will be called upon to put our money where our mouth has been... and dust off the Second Amendment.
