At what point do we stand and fight? What’s the trigger event for you? Abrogation of the 2nd? Suspension of habeus corpus? Cancellation of an election?

The moment any gun-grabber decides to visit my area....

Abrogation is being done one infringement at a time. We have to fight every infringement. Read the NRA website that I linked to. They may not be perfect but they say we have to stand and fight. We need to do so while we have numbers to do so. If we "lose" too many firearms in accidents, then we lose politically.

*******************

A critical question indeed!

As a society we have become desensitized to violence ("Bullet To The Head" is the name of Stallone's latest movie, or take a video game like "Assassin's Creed") yet we are personally appalled at the thought of committing violence against anyone. (Even when they richly deserve it!) We are a very law-abiding people, really, except for that tiny fraction of one percent who are true psychotic nutjobs.

Remember, the colonial militiamen on Lexington Green were in retreat when the "shot heard 'round the world" became THEIR trigger event.

So what, indeed, will push us over the edge and make us take that old musket down from the mantlepiece? I feel we are very close to such a moment.

Trigger Point, quite an interesting term.

Let’s see, if we as a People decide not to Comply with the Unconstitutional Mandates being dictated to us by self serving Politicians, we have no doubt that the Government they control will act against us.

Their support by the Useful and Useless Idiots who Elected them means nothing to me simply because I know my Rights come from God Almighty, not some untrustworthy people that wouldn’t warrant an ounce of respect from me.

I have already made the decision that I will not Comply, and every Law Abiding Gun Owner will have to make that choice in the very near future. I will do whatever I need to do to protect myself and my Family from my, no THE Government, which is something I would have never imagined having to do in my lifetime.

We live in a Society where a majority of the population are slaves to popular culture. These are the same people that now depend on Fascists to meet their needs and wants so they can avoid the sacrifices required to be a free people.

At a soon to be point in time, “Representatives” of the Government will either act as Agents of Tyranny against the “former” Law Abiding Citizens of the United States or they will disobey their orders and stand down.

The Trigger Point will involve a Citizen resisting the invasion of his Home by the new American SS. He/She will either become a Martyr or a Political Prisoner and that same person will embolden others to resist. Instead of a Trigger Point, it will be more akin to Rolling Thunder IMHO.
