thank you cosmoline

There truly is a lot more to history than was taught in grade school, I'm constantly trying to learn and I appreciate you taking the time to educate re: BTP.


I won't hijack this thread any longer ;)
 
The only thing I have to say here is that when your group gathers lots of new members all eager to uphold the Second Amendment, the guys who are urging violent action the MOST .... are the FBI agents.

I think before folks get all riled up on this subject, there should be a period of intense scrutiny of the Supreme Court and the decision they reach over the next year. Jump start the militia movement too fast and it will bring too much liberal legislative heat on us before it's necessary, IMHO. The very notion can easily be spun by a lying media into a scenario that will also cause the moderates to align against us and cause the focus to shift into a very sharply negative snapshot of gun owners in general that could have a backlash effect that is completely unnecessary.

Btw, one time, some years ago, I was teaching at a middle school for a short period of time and I made no secret of my conservatism or my pro-gun viewpoints, especially being published on 2nd Amendment related matters about 6 times per year average in the Miami Herald. Most of my fellow "educators" hated my guts. That's fine. Invariably there is at least one or two that are prior service and we all hang together.

One time this really uber left wing English teacher stopped me in the Teacher's lunch area when it was full of folks and we had this exchange:

Her: MR. EXSOLDIER! Are you a member of a MILITIA?

Me: Ummmmm nope.

Her: Well, why not?

Me: Don't misunderstand, it's not because I disagree with what they believe in or practice.

Her: ~Confused look~

Me: They simply can't teach me anything new!

Her: Runs SCREAMING from the room. The rest of the teachers continue eating lunch and chatting with me. The subject never came up in public again.
