I remember the Battle of Athens very well.

I also remember that after winning the group fractured and in a couple of elections the bad guys were creeping back into power.

There is a lot to be learned by studying the aftermath of revolts.

One of the major ones is the good guys end up losing because they are more interested in their own lives then in telling other people what to do. So they drift away. If we wish to stop that inclination we are going to have to make some political and cultural changes.

A great veteran story — took back their government from corrupt Democrats, enabled by access to, and willingness to use firearms.

This account is the most factual and detailed that I have found.

If the Battle of Athens were to take place today, I can imagine what would happen to the veterans.

Like the Preacher who had a cold said;

“Vabity, Vabity. All is Vabity.”

We would stage well armed and bravely face off . . . Unfortunately, we're all a little old, deaf, weak AND invalid , , , , but DAMNED DETERMINED.

I think it would be a good battle.

Well, I was thinking about afterwards, when the corrupt state and federal governments would come down on the veterans.

Again, it’ll be a great battle.

And the memory of it will be a great comfort to the winners during their years in prison.

We've reached a point . . . old men sit around, drink coffee and solve all the problems of the world, knowing in their hearts, they are incapable of being the physical badass they USTA'BE . . . . and we have already reared our families, are living as widowers or comfortably secure, and as Americans, we're armed and have the mind . . . . SET . . . . . to DO something about it.
