It said GOA provided a legal defense funs, but it sounds as though they're on the skids, since no one lives in a trailer if they don't have to.
 
And people wonder what motivates people like Timothy McVeigh and Osama Bin Ladin. When people are pushed far enough the resulting whiplash is generally very violent.
 
McVeigh didn't go through anything like that. He just looked around at all the things done to others and went off the deep end. Pretty violently too.
 
This sounds like a missing chapter from Unintended Consequences. I'm going to try to contact GOA and see if anything's being done to help.
 
The county has also billed the family $25,000 for the cost of demolishing the house

And in Red China, when the government executes a dissident, the surviving family is sent a bill for the price of the bullet . . .
 
Right now, they have to turn people away, so many are lining up for all the good-payin', high-respect "law" enforcement jobs. (I hope nobody is going to claim government enforcers are poorly paid. They get paid a heck of a lot more money than people in honest jobs like hamburger flippers and convenience store clerks, and they are in less danger on the job too. )

Mainaktes, I am a corrections officer and I get paid less than you think, and a very high percentage of the officers I work with including my LT are VERY pro 2A. This kind of action is repugnant, illegal, and needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extant of the law possible, as guardians of the law should face a harder penalty for breaking it!

Billl I live in a trailer, a 99 Redman doublewide. I like it just fine.
I hope these people get all the justice they can, and the county is forced to make restitution, and all the various officials responsable become inmates.
 
I always say hi to these guys at the cal gun shows.
This news make me absolutely sick.....
I believe there is a show this weekend in CM and If they are there I'll ask about a legal fund and report back to THR
 
Taking a class with a very famous ex Law Enforcement officer here in CA, he was shooting tracers. Everyone's jaws dropped - he said "y'all need to get out of here and return to America" and kept using tracers the entire class.

Above the law?

My interpretation is that the LEO was NOT from CA, considered the tracer ban to be absurd, and was encouraging people to get the heck out of that place.

No, not above the law. Just an American correctly holding such a "law" in contempt.
 
I'm *worried* that I might end up living in a trailer. Some people who are in a position to do something about it think the $335 a month apartment I live in now is waaay too good for me.

I *want* to live in a place that would be a real chore to try to demolish, or even attack. It would have thick walls, hopefully thick enough to stop a .50 BMG round, with no external windows on the ground floor, and thick, heavy, bullet-resistant shutters, with firing ports in them, on the upper windows, and a fire-(and bullet) resistant roof; and it would be difficult for wheeled or tracked vehicles to get within ramming distance of, except via the narrow driveway (with steep drop-offs on either side) to the main gate into the walled-in courtyard; and that gate would be a strong one, and whoever breached it, with a motor-driven ram or with explosives (for sure nobody could *kick* it in), would not like the situation they would find themselves in once inside it. :evil:

I've been getting a lot of ideas from studying old castle and fortress designs, and if I ever have any money beyond chump change I *will* build something along those lines. It would not have to *look* much like a castle to *work* like one. They better hurry up and kill me before I grow and become a real thorn in their side.

Aw, hey, now, Bill Hook! I built my own house, myself, because you can't pull double-wide halves up the mountain road.

Wuz I makin' $100K a year, I could have hired a helicopter to do the heavy lifting.

:D, Art

Did you ever see the house Dennis Weaver built from used tires and straw?

Very neat, well insulated and "eco-friendly." Looks like an adobe meets Frank Lloyd Wright. I think they call it an "earth ship" or some equally goony name (in keeping with he and his friends tree-hugger beliefs), but it would be perfect for that site, or one of those pre-fab rustic timber houses.

Like those Canadians who've been demonstrating their contempt for the registration scheme by parading around in public with their unregistered firearms. You guys in CA need to get out, or start doing the same. If a several thousand people show up at a demonstration with unregistered assault weapons are they gonna arrest them all?
 
That seems like an explosive idea. Invade Sacramento with "banned" "assault" "weapons." Lockyer would send you to meet "Bubba" like he wanted to send Ken Lay of Enron. Soccer moms would shudder in fear. And Rosie O-Doughnut would have an MMM.
 
Ya know, every time I read a story like this I care a little less about whether George Bush, Howard Dean, John Kerry, Al Gore etc is our President. Does it really make a difference?

The system is broken, and the only way to fix it is to get people to vote - and we've already established that Americans like security over freedom. :cuss:
 
Carpettbaggerr,

I doubt they'd try to arrest them. They might call in an airstrike and drop a "daisy cutter" on the assembed armed citizens. Or, they might use some of these new-fangled "worse-than-lethal" "crowd-dispersion" weapons they've been developing for just such a contingency. Do not understimate the people who are out to get us. Believe me, they are *real* serious* about disarming us, and will use any means they think are necessary to impose their will on us. They're not at all above siccing the military, or elements of the military, on all of us newly-declared "terrorists." And all the people watching it on TV will think it's okay, because, you know, all the Americans who get vaporized or incinerated or microwave-cooked or laser-"eye-popped"(blinded) or with their internal organs melted by sonic weapons are "terrorists," this they know, for the man on TV tells them so.

Things like this will keep happening no matter if people vote or not - how often do politicians keep promises once they are elected? The only way to change it is for someone to...resist...when the JBTs come for them. Then someone else does the same the next time...and the next time.

The problem, as someone already mentioned, is that nobody's volunteering to fire the first shot. I'm guilty of that as well :uhoh:
