This sixty second chapter takes place thirteen hours after the action described in "The Raid". This is the second and last excerpt from my novel, which I hope to finish before summertime 2002.

Damn good story. Only to scary for I see this coming to a town near all of us in the not so distant future.
When your book is done, please announce it on FR and how much and where we can get a copy. Do Freeper's get a discount?

I am a voracious reader, and love Ludlum, le Carre, Clancy, and many others of that ilk. This writing is as good as any I've ever read... quite simply, as good as it gets.

Exceptionally well done. I can't wait to add the hardcover version (signed?) to my library in Barbados, where only the very best Cuban cigars are smoked.

Yes. I noticed.

Hey OldManDigging, what's Bigfoot 2's correct screen name?

[ActionNewsBill]

Wow! This is good stuff! Your book could become required reading for patriots much in the same way that "Unintended Consequences" is.

I hope your book will be allowed to be published and sold without you being harrassed by the BATF.

[Travis McGee]

Here's the other one.

[Travis McGee]

Here's the second part.

[Copernicus]

A remarkable piece of work.

In the summer of 1999 I had the misfortune to witness a "Clickit or Ticket checkpoint in action down in North Carolina. This was a random road block to harass people who had improperly installed child safety seats/ were caught driving without their seatbelts /or other "minor" infractions ($200.00 tickets). The checkpoint included an ambulance, a heliocopter, a prison bus paddy wagon and multiple police cars parked in both directions.

I drolly predicted at the time these people should be careful for what they wished lest they find themselves in a firefight with rogue drug dealers and Sally Soccermom caught in the crossfire unable to advance or retreat out of the line of traffic.

Your scenario beats my prediction hollow.

Good work... I think

Best regards

CAMP GUNFREE.
A common sense and historically proven way to keep those dangerous and destructive GUNS out of YOUR life.
MEMBERSHIPS AVAILABLE NOW!
Details below

Concerned about the easy availability of guns in our society?

Alarmed about the "gun nuts" and other freedom wackos the government allows to run loose?

Wish the government would just repeal the Second Amendment and confiscate all the guns because you believe sensible people shouldn't suffer because on some antiquated right?

While we can't take the guns away from the people, we CAN take the people or at least SOME of them (only the RIGHT ones, of course!) away from their guns.

At CAMP GUNFREE, we have created an atmosphere of near-total tranquility where you and your family will experience the benefits of a GUN FREE environment.

The unique main gate at Camp GunFree. Most arriving camp guests never see this view from their comfortable rail cars.

Each of our camps is a gated community designed to keep guns away from camp guests. Firmly enforced security measures ensure that these dangerous and destructive devices are kept outside. Each camp boasts 24 hour, 7 day a week sentries and state-of-the-art enclosure systems, guard dogs, trenches and surveillance equipment to absolutely GUARANTEE that no firearms enter the facility. Rigidly controlled access ensures that no guns can ever be smuggled in.

No cost has been spared to ensure that Camp GunFree remains gun free.

All camp members are given distinctive uniforms to distinguish them from any gun-toting barbarians who might attempt to evade our security measures. Each camp member is also assigned a distinctive ID number to ensure that only the right people are allowed within the camp.

Room and board are provided to each member in exchange for rewarding tasks designed to provide a sense of accomplishment and to demonstrate that large numbers of people CAN exist in a gun violence free community.

Camp members engaged in one of our many fun-filled organized work activities.

The current headlines prompt us to remind you that there has NEVER been a shooting by a student in any of the camp schools and we can GUARANTEE that there never will be!!
