Utah Congressman Set to Propose Funds Cut for Paramilitary Units at BLM, IRS and Other Fed Regulator
Canada Free Press ^ | May 15, 2014 | By Jerry McConnell

Posted on 05/15/2014 7:07:13 PM PDT by kingattax

I, and I’m certain many of my readers will agree when I say, “Kudos” to Cheryl K. Chumley and her employer, the Washington Times, for covering the story concerning the Utah Congressman, Chris Stewart, who, accordingly, “is mulling a measure to cut funding for any ‘paramilitary units’ that work for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other federal regulatory agencies.”

“There are lots of people who are really concerned when the BLM shows up with its own SWAT team,” Congressman Stewart said, the Salt Lake Tribune reported. “They’re regulatory agencies. They’re not paramilitary units, and I think that concerns a lot of us.”

Kudos also to you Congressman, and, yes, it does concern a lot of others, many of whom I have talked with, and rightfully so in view of the recent happenings and suspicions of motives that the current Obama Administration have been unusually active in concerning probable attempts to purchase for government use millions upon millions of rounds of ammunition for handheld weapons without satisfactory explanation.

Let’s see. The IRS, BLM, U.S. Fish and Game. I can think of only ONE group of people these commandoes would be used against and it isn’t good. If the Feds want paramilitary units, why don’t they put them along our borders. Just a thought.

Looks like BLM’s Feudal Lord Reid is planning to mange his Personal Land with guns, Guns, GUNS!

Gone, gone is the day,
Where the deer and the antelope played,

Now only is heard,
The thundering Hoard,
Of Reid’s Rustlers, enforcing,
Feudal Lord Reid’s every word.

Home, home on Obamanation!
Which took only Five years for implementation,
Marxist Implementation and trauma,
Thanks to Boehner from Obama,
The Welfare Plantation is finally here to stay!

Trust me, I’m not against this, but if this is done we have to make sure it’s not an opening to create a national paramilitary force coordinated under one agency. I’m sure there’s nothing more Obama would like to do.

The Dept of Agriculture needs to be squashed also. They are trying to arm up.

I hope every western state senator of the Republican/Tea Party persuasion gets behind this, and quickly.

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.

If any federal regulatory sees the need for physical enforcement of any policy they should REQUEST the help of the local sherif department who would decide to assist or not. There should be no federal paramilitary enforcement personnel. The only possible exception would be the solitary game warden, and he should not be a storm trooper type. I would make one other exception, and that would be the border patrol or coast guard whose jurisdiction would be within a very close proximity to the border.

Don't forget that the Dept of Agriculture wants in on the sub machine gun fun too! And I finally found out why, the answer is right here at this site:

It's not severe enough; a bill cutting all funding of any federal agency with a paramilitary unit [or even authorization to use arms in any area that a citizen would not be so allowed] which is not the Army or Navy is much more appropriate.

digest this -

then make it go viral.

and BTW, notice, except for the sub way, the ‘target area’ is rural - not exactly progressive’s (herd animals) habitat...so who are they being trained to take out...(rhetorical)
