--(Ammoland.com)- I say screw the law, it will be easier for me to live as a criminal.
That must be what the Democrats, everyone from the White House to my local town council, all want me to be, so why should i fight it?
Everyday I open the paper or sign on to Facebook and all I see is bill after bill, banning, restricting, limiting or just making it more God dam difficult for me, a law abiding citizen to exercise my Second Amendment Rights, god given I might add.
I have been a law abiding citizen, faith full husband, loving father and timely tax payer for all of my adult life. I have never been a drinker, I break at stop signs, even when no one is looking. I go to church and pray for others. I also go hunting and shooting for fun and to hang out with my lifelong boyhood friends.
I also stand, take off my hat and cover my heart when I say the Pledge of Allegiance. I also believe the Constitution is not something that should be “updated“.
In fact, I believe that the Constitution of the United States and the accompanying Bill of Rights is the law of the land and one of the greatest documents ever created by man. Like parts of a fine watch it has been the shining jewel that has powered the United States through multiple wars and trying times.
You want me to be a criminal? Then keep right on passing laws that: •Ban the standard size magazine, that came with my legally purchased gun.
I will not only be a criminal, I will be the worst criminal that you can imagine.

From the article:
“When we do that I will give my movement a name and I will call it an American Revolution!!”
I fear that it is slowly coming to that.
I'll tentatively vouch for this one.

Say you’re living in the shadows and a criminal becomes a heroic victim
A couple of weeks ago, I ordered banjo strings and when they showed up, I replaced the one that needed to be replaced and dutifully opened up the banjo case to put the rest of the strings and the complimentary picks in the case.
And there was yet another half-box of .22 LR.
I can't open a drawer around here without finding a .22 LR.
Laundry is always interesting. I go through my pockets because laundered dollar bills don't spend as well as shiny dimes. But I can hear that 'click' that comes from a .22LR in the dryer when I couldn't hear an ex-wife yelling next to me.
I've got plenty of .22. ;)

Hey---Someone is catching on...
They also want your assets, home equity, income, and anything else they can seize...No joke.
The truth is, the government now sees white people as a target, heavy luggage and a burden on them.
They no longer trust you...Ya see, bloated corrupt government looted the American treasure, SS etc., etc.
Getting you out of the way, in a cage or dead, will make it much easier for them.
You're being replaced by waves of illegal aliens and foreigners from socialist countries from all over the planet. And they expect the same socialist handouts here. In fact, they'll trade your freedom for food stamps, handouts and welfare in a second.
When ya hear, "How in hell are these people getting elected"....Now ya know.
While I understand the history of vigilantism as an almost entirely non-violent movement, there is something to the Hollywood and media myth of vigilantism as an individual or small group, “Death Wish” kind of activity.
In either case, vigilantism came about because the authorities were either unable or unwilling to protect the citizenry, or worse, took the side of the criminals against the citizenry.
Real vigilantism started as people organizing block watches, petitioning government with their grievances, trying to elect a new government, and more than anything else, trying to convince the criminals to stop or leave.
And yet they were thwarted in every way. Government turned against them, seeing them as a greater threat than the criminals, and often the two ganged up against the vigilante organization, attacking and arresting or assassinating its leaders, and trying to brutalize the rest into submission.
But the myth was much simpler. First the criminals offended, and then the vigilante sought violent revenge.
Vigilantism is only stopped by good government, because otherwise it is a committee with a thousand eyes and arms, able to carry out immense harm against the criminals, as judge, jury, and executioner. Without endless appeals.
And it most certainly solves problems.
Given that:
1. The Constitution has been replaced as the law of the land by treasonous Marxists and their Useful Idiots;
2. They are outlawing guns;
3. When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns;
Then it follows that: We shall all hang together as outlaws, or else we shall all hang separately.
“We’re after power and we mean it. You fellows were pikers, but we know the real trick, and you’d better get wise to it. There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them...you create a nation of lawbreakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that’s the system, Mr. Rearden.”
Sounds like someone just got finished reading “Unintended Consequences”. There are more Henry Bowmans out there than you can shake a stick at.
3. When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns;
You could have said “only outlaws and politicians will have guns”, but that would be redundant;)
Very apropos Ayn Rand quote. As each year passes, I am increasingly awestruck by just how prescient she really was. She grew up under totalitarianism, and thus was able to detect the early trend here in the USA. Too bad more people didn’t heed her warnings....Now we get to live out Atlas Shrugged. The question is, Who is our John Galt?
Good luck with that, I no longer own anything! I put all my assets into a revocable trust. I also have a separate trust for my guns and sundry Class III NFA items. There is a successor trustee in place for when I shuffle off this veil of tears. In the mean time I control the trust's finances and have zero exposure to government threats and bullying. They may lock me away but they can't get at my assets as I have nothing.
