What do you really think the outcome would be for you  if:
1) President Bush is defeated on his current SCOTUS appointment by a moderate Republican/Democratic coallition. A more "centrist" appointment acceptable to Democrats is approved.
2) Hillary wins in 2006 in New York, and in 2008 for POTUS
3) Chuckie Schumer is made AJOTUS
4) Both Senate and House majorities shifts to the Democrats
5) AWB comes back on Steroids, banning  semi-autos, with NO grandfather clause or sale allowed. No hollow point, penetrator, frangible, defender  or segmented ammo is allowed.
6) Posession of more than 9 legal or illegal firearms is considered a felony.  
7) No rights of transfer or inheritance for firearms are recognized.  Your options are to render permanently inoperative or turn in for destruction.
 
NOTE: Items 5, 6 and 7 have already been in bills introduced in New York State.

Sure, a few readers will  give the obligatory "from my cold dead fingers" response, but what would you really do?  If the New York idiots get cloned to Washington, this is a very real  possibility in '08.

The only logical solution is to use those force multipliers available.

1. The truth
2. Force of law

Knowing that the only rightful use of force is in the defence of Life Liberty and Property and the law was created for that purpose any thing to the contrary must be eliminated.

The truth is very powerful against lies.


"The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is no force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence. Property must be secured or liberty cannot exist."

John Adams




Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual.


It is time to play offense, take up the common law, assemble the public body of justice and execute the warrant.

Time for strategy.
It is a mistake to approach the tyrrany issue on a national/federal scale, each local area needs to assmble a 12 man jury of qualified electors, this body of public justice is the supreme law of the land, it acts only on what is real with Malum In Se and not Malum Prohibitum.

If each sovereign American in their own local area, assemble under the cause of the common law and hold all official to the law, then justice and freedom could be restored to those areas.

So the strategic goal would be a free society under the common law which is in agreement with the constitution.

By each local area operating control over their own domains there is no federal cause with which the tyrants can interfere without incurring the wrath of the people, the JBT's are slow to act against their neighbors for the very reason that they are neighbors.

The fedcoats can always concentrate force upon an isolated community one at a time but if many communities act at the same time there just is not enough JBT's to go around when hundreds of militia live on scene without logistical obstacles to overcome as the fedcoats must do.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these states; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present tyrant is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.



If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our callings and our creeds, as the people of England are,  our people, like them, must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, and give the earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses;
And the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live, as they do now, on oatmeal and potatoes,  have no time to think, no means of calling the mismanagers to account; but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains around the necks of our fellow sufferers; And this is the tendency of all human governments.   A departure from principle in one instance becomes a precedent for a second, that second for a third, and so on 'til the bulk of the society is reduced to be mere automatons of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering... And the forehorse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression.     ~Thomas Jefferson-

I went through that also. In my post Marine Corps days, while Carter was still busy running the country into the ground, I was a pretty militant conservative.  If Carter had stayed in the country would have went belly up witin 4 years and I told my wife then if the SHTF, I was gone. Then I started a family, Reagan was POTUS, and things seemed to be looking up some. Now, we have gone through the 90's with the Klintons infringing on freedoms conservatives hold dear, my kids are now grown and I am seeing a Republican government that has turned to socialism to purchase the votes of losers, opened the country to our enemies and the economy seems to have nowhere to go but down. Another full blown socialist administration may be more than the country can take though either way the handwriting is on the wall I am afraid.  In any event, I have become more militant again and it would appear that some may have to make the hard decision to put their lives on the line if we continue on our current path. Even Hildebeast as President wouldn't mean an automatic revolution but if she and her ilk push the policies they desire down our throats, incl gun confiscation, there is a really good chance I will fight. The way I figure it I have raised my kids and better people like me stand and fight than some of you young guys with families. I am still able to fight and have some advantages I didn't as a young man but I wish I were in the kind of physical condition I was then.

Yeah, all too many see us as attacking the "Fedcoats"( I like that BTW!) en masse across the open prairie or some such rubbish. I already know what I would plan and that ain't even close.

You will not get many local politicians to fall in line though. They are all where they are not because of skill, intellect or love of freedom but because most are sniveling, groveling, asskissing, manipulative liars who know the only sure way to get elected is to promise the electorate money from the public coffers.
