Bundy Ranch Showdown Proves Militias Can Stop Government Excesses
JPFO ^ | April 19,2014 | Kurt Hofman

Posted on 04/20/2014 2:39:03 AM PDT by SWAMPSNIPER

When gun rights advocates explain that the Second Amendment exists to protect the people's last-ditch means of stopping an out-of-control government, a common reply from those who favor oppressive gun laws is that civilians, with our small arms, would have no chance against a military superpower like the U.S. They tell us that with tanks, stealth bombers, supersonic fighter jets, drones, helicopter gunships, etc., the military would crush any resistance by the people. (Oddly, this argument has apparently not yet convinced the Taliban to quit fighting.)

As a Potential Domestic Terrorist, I stand proudly ready to defend my Country against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

This is #1 of 78 videos on the subject. It might be an idea to download them all considering what happened at the Bundy Ranch this past week.<

SNIPER 101 Part 1 - Introduction - Rex Reviews

Snipers, hunters, target shooters, ladies and gentlemen... Finally, Rex Reviews releases this long awaited free online long range shooting / sniper tutorial. TiborasaurusRex will walk you through everything you will need to know about sniper ammunition and cartridge selection, rifle and equipment options, basic and advanced external ballistics, making effective ballistic charts, rangefinders and distance determination, long range marksmanship, shooter / spotter team dynamics and communication, choosing a FFP, making the shot, spotting the shot, and much more.

This course goes far beyond what is covered in the U.S. Army FM23-10. So, if you can't make it to Quantico or the AMTU to learn these long range shooting skills, this video tutorial series will have you covered. We will get you set up to make amazingly accurate first round shots at 1 mile and beyond. Do you want to be able to zap that white tail buck at 1,275 yards and be confident it will be a nice clean kill? Watch this series!

All law abiding men and women in the free world who treasure their rifles MUST have these long range shooting skills for the continuation of our shooting culture and for the future preservation of our wonderful nation! Peace is beautiful, insure it by sharing these marksmanship skills with your friends and families to exponentially increase our nations already robust defense stature against. Stay clean, obey the law, and keep smiling.

I think everyone needs a hobby and I'd like to suggest one that may just possibly become a popular patriotic one - learning to shoot at long range targets. Have you ever wished you could hit a small target that is 3000 feet away? Yes, 1000 yards seems like a long distance but it does not require that you spend $5000 on your equipment. 1,000 yard BUDGET RIFLE! .243 at 1,021 yards - REX Reviews

Do you want a real budget rifle? How about a target that's 944 yards away. Nail it with a M91 Mosin Nagant - using 7N1 Sniper Ammo and no scope! That's right just IRON SIGHTS!

Look at the course that Rex has designed for everyone. Here are some of his video titles on Long Range Shooting.

“Let’s face it, the standoff turning bloody would have hurt Obama......that is why it ended.
If they could have transformed the armed citizens into terrorists, this could have been another Waco.”

You give the govt too much credit. The standoff ended because the govt goons were outnumbered and getting ready to get their butts shot off.

Secondly this would never have become Waco because the govt was not confronting a bunch of cult members holed up in a building. They were confronting trained and armed militia and from the reports I read outnumbered.

The aggressors were not combat troops or even the FBI they were a bunch of jumped up forest rangers with tactcal gear interspersed with a few hired mercs. They are the Civilian National Defense Force and they do not have the eye of the tiger.

Obama’s Civilian National Defense Force has no Constitutional or statutory leg to stand on. Everywhere they appear they need to be neutralized by militia and citizens. They have no jurisdiction to make armed incursions into sovereign states. The Governor of Nevada should have sent the staters to run them off at the first sign of their operation. Since he was hiding under his desk the citizens and their militia had to do it.

Look for this to happen again and again across the country.

Make no mistake about it, if she gets a hold of the US she'll make Obama look like a great President

Unfortunately, I have to agree. Her and Obama ALMOST make me miss Jimmy Carter. I have no doubt that there is a better than even chance, that if the Hildebeast becomes president, there could be many Waco events. The bad part of it, is I am pretty sure Bill Clinton will be the next first man. It's an ugly thought, and I pray to Jesus every day that it does not happen, but I think it will.

And soldiers have a duty to disobey any unlawful order. Review the Nuremburg trials if you doubt that.

Give me a break........................

Review the Whiskey Rebellion or the Bonus Army or Kent State University or the clandestine participation at Waco......................

It would be open warfare on the families of Fed employees. Just an observation.

Should that occur, it would render our Patriots as evil as the oppressors. A freedom fighter attacks the oppressors; a terrorist attacks his women and children.

You and I know that. There are many that are ready to take it there. Let’s hope they do not get the chance or act on it.

The Feds will not return to the Bundy Ranch until everyone has left. Then they'll quietly roll up the matter.

The leviathan will continue to absorb.

And, all those who depart will be methodically arrested, either on their drive home or early some morning shortly after they arrive.

Any who resist will be shot and/or burned.

These guys (Feds) are not equipped to deal with concentrated force willing and able to fight back.

They are VERY good at culling their targets from the herd with overwhelming, concentrated force.

I thought I saw someone say on Facebook that Facebook was not allowing any more videos of the Bundy ranch to be posted. It looked like the videos were going viral a few days ago but that might have been curtailed.

Reid’s Rustlers are going to return in greater numbers with greater military resources.

SWAT teams are a different case. Too many police live in the “us and them” world.

… orders not, emotion.
But they are not automatons. When it comes to emotions we do our best to dehumanize our enemies. Ragheads, gooks, krauts were all terms that were used to bring emotion into our wars.

First Reid labeled the Bundy’s as “Domestic Terrorists”. Then he said, “Something is going to happen.” Wow. Does Harry know something, since he has set up a scenario where Homeland Security can do his dirty work?

If something happens to the Bundy’s, Harry is the prime suspect. He is scum of the earth.

The thing that made it work was the government isn’t yet ready for the publicity it will get in a massacre of United States citizens. We can all hope that when Obama orders the Army to wipe out such as the Bundy Militia, that the Army refuses.
