Thanks, groanup. I woke up this morning after a nightmarish dream that I was living in a 'nannie republic' only to learn that I still must be dreaming.

(Somebody puh-lease throw a bucket of ice on me)

You said:

"Government has overstepped in many ways"

Lemme count the ways:

They're stealing our water, our farmlands and cattle
Away from the din of the cities' loud rattle
They think we're alone, with no voice to be heard
But someday they'll learn we're not part of the herd

When the price of a loaf goes over the line
And taxes consuming what's yours and what's mine
When all of the laws are selectively 'lawyered'
Look for branch and a taught-swinging halyard.

Whulp, gotta put all that on hold for a while and focus on a more violent breed of enemy that is upon us. If it comes to pass that the terrorists will begin visiting our neighborhoods, the only way we are going to resolve that is for everyone to carry their own 'anti-terror tools.' Time for the governors to alert the Citizens to prepare for combat in their own neighborhoods. Time to open the public armories. Time for the sheriff's to get busy and deputize the whole county - especially all the vets, the hunters, and other gun-handlers. And yes, it's time to set aside all gun laws. Don't want my own government to mistakenly shoot me as a terrorist. ;-)

I've mentioned that before, but think it needs to be repeated. Even if pre-mature, best to get used to the idea.

I guess if you try to open up the public armory the governor might get the wrong idea and consider you a terrorist. The rulling terrorists have to be dealt with, in order for the people (the militia) to properly arm and defend themselves against foreign terrorists.

Molon Labe !
