Yeah you're right, I edited it right away because I saw I screwed up. Sometimes I type what I read instead of what I think.  Thankfully we have an edit feature

That is cool and creepy at the same time. I want one.

 

It's a replica of the masks doctors wore in the 14th century when they would travel Europe treating victims of the black death.

Speaking of trigger guards though, did you know on ARs and AR clone platforms, along with a few random models out there, the front pin on the trigger guard gets pushed in and you fold the guard down along the handle to make the weapon useable while wearing heavy gloves?

A little tip if you didn't know.

I'm not just saying that either, it's specifically designed that way for that purpose.

Trigger Guard is a shooting range in Wellington....

I understand that, I'm talking about the lock on the trigger in the photo.

I have a whole drawer of those things.

Sweet rifle through.

Exactly, I believe In fun and a good time but there is also that side which we speak of. Speaking of I'm gonna go to wellington today and squeeze a few rounds off at Trigger Guard.

Lol trigger lock? People actually use those?

Not knocking you, do what you feel is proper. I guess I'm old school, a fear of the lash keeps kids away from guns IMO

It is in California. Could be from a movie set or I like the possibility of defunct mobile prisoner detainment cells. I doubt the feds are targeting them for militia members. 

Right. Technically every single U.S. citizen who is armed is militia whether they are fooling with a "group" right now or not. That's a whole lot of freaking people to target. And don't forget, there's militia on all sides of any conflict.

That's why a bullet and a pit is the only logical conclusion, you can't intern that many people.

I personally don't believe in any of the internment camp nonsense. Logic dictates if anything like this went down, everyone who is an "undesirable" will just be shot and shoved into a pit if they're lucky enough to get a grave.

I honestly haven't even heard of this guy until just now. I had a friend in the army, notice I said had, who fell in with this kind of black supremist B.S.

Freaking sad

600,000 ppl died in that war. 

If anything it is the evidence necessary that we should not rush into war. 

Its a butchery, ugly, horrific, and to be avoided at ALMOST any cost. 

The number was closer to 700,000+ if you include all the civilians who starved to death because of it. Which makes it even more gruesome and horrifying. Imagine that same percentage today with our modern population.

What do you think the cause was? Slavery? Tariffs? Some other reason?

My personal opinion is that slavery was not the reason for the war; it was more about tariffs and states rights. I will explain my reasoning for this eventually, but I will wait and see what some other opinions are first.

Look, I'm not going to argue for or against slavery. It is what it is and every single nation and tribe of people on Earth practiced it or still practices it today.

The cold hard fact that is indisputable is the industrial revolution killed slavery, it made it obsolete. A machine could do the work of many men and you didn't need to feed it near as much as an army of workers.

That said, I believe the prison system is government enforced slavery.

Slavery wasn't an issue in the civil war until after the battle of Antietam, which means it was not the reason we started fighting each other.

I honestly don't know what the reason or reasons for going to war were. It's all but been lost to us, and the slavery issue has been rammed down everyone's throats ever since.

How'd you like shooting that cannon your holding in your profile pic?

Oh it was a blast, the more you shot the lighter it got. I decked out my AR to mimic it as closely as I was able to, the BFS3 trigger system was the icing on the cake.

When I go somewhere that demands I must wear one and I really need to go in there, such as the local government center, this is what I wear. It really freaks everyone out, it's priceless.

Is not wear a mask or whatever plebs wrap their heads in. Period! The science is there to back you.

I was literally just out grocery shopping with my daughter and as we walked in some employee at the door said "please social distance since you're both not wearing masks"

Then I smiled and said "I suppose I can pretend I believe in your hoax for a little while"

The mean mug shot my way was priceless. 

Is that a garand you're holding in the photo?

The problem is with religion and I'm Catholic, is again, you see these people on TV I have holy water and con all these people into spending money on them. Religion is freedom you can do based on your beliefs. Which I love, as if everyone was the same and agreed in everything this world would be boring. 

 

It's corrupted and been twisted, manipulated so much these churches get all this money from we the people. How I was raised and mind you this my opinion and if I step on any toes or hurt feelings it's not intended, I am a blunt person and believe in truth. How I was raised and values going to church every Sunday and donating to the church was the church was your go to place, to talk to God, rely on people in your church, be friendly to others, protect your family friends and people from harm/evil.

 

Alot of churches aren't like that anymore. It's like they read a small verse from the Bible and then they're like oh btw we need money.  That's bugs me. Again it's a huge subject and we should keep the religion aspect to basically do you believe in God, kinda thing. As again there is many different beliefs and interpretation on it.

 

Churches have to much power, especially the ones on TV, where you have these so called priests/ministers/pastors living in mansions and or living the high life. That's a subject I won't go deep into as each person has their own beliefs and is entitled to them. I firmly believe that insulting a person's belief isn't being a good person. Each person is different

 

And yes I understand churches survive off donations and such. Your idea is sound and I totally understand where your coming from and on alot of aspects you are correct as there is alot of good churches out there that are about the people and help their own with alot if awesome people. Definitely something to think on to get everyone on the same page which is our freedom.

 

Again if I insulted, offended, or pissed any of you off wasn't my intention it's just my view and it opinion. This is what makes us great, the ability to be different and still have the same goal 

Nah, you're good and have a very valid point. A lot of religion has been perverted by man over the millenia to serve himself rather than serve God.

The issue about the milita goes back to the government because they KNOW what the militia was meant for and so they knew that if they had any chance at getting by with what they've intended, then they had to find some way to quell the militia.

How do you destroy someones credibility? You first have to make them look bad or evil and so thats where I believe it really kicked in is when they used Timothy McVeigh, aka their MK ultra weapon to start.  But anyway, I applaud what your doing and I hope you accomplish your mission because thats what we need to be doing across our nation. 👍😎🇺🇸

You may or may not believe this, but I've honestly been thinking about this for a long time. I've been randomly opening my 1611 version of the KJV and reading the page looking for guidance and praying daily to be used to serve His will. 

My dad was born back in 1925 and was an old school protestant minister, fire and brimstone to the core, he died about 3 years ago. I was sleeping on the couch early one morning and was woken suddenly with my dad's voice saying clear as day "Get to church, boy." 

So I took that as a sign to do what I'm doing now. I'm not saying I'm some kind of prophet, I'm just saying the message couldn't be any clearer than it was.

I honestly believe that what is coming our way is something that NO ONE ever thought would or could happen here. We as a people, as PATRIOTS are going to be looking at a war that in order to overcome we are going to have to be MORE vigilant, smarter thinking, even thinking outside the box in some instances. We #1 if there are those that haven't, is TRAIN our minds also. We MUST remember the enemy and if those of you that believe what the bible teaches then you must know what we are facing is a spiritual war, and the evil ones, we will face. GOD BLESS ALL OF US👍😎🇺🇸

That's why I'm going from church to church every week trying to rile up Christians. I'm explaining to them that the reason <we're> they're being targeted and infringed upon is because the constitution specifically states that our rights come from God, if they eliminate the church or make them so fearful that they refuse to stand up for themselves, then the constitution is null and void because the persecutors will say they've disproven God and did it so effectively that Christians wouldn't even stand up against their "facts". Without God, we have no rights because there was never anyone to give them to us to begin with.

I'm really trying to turn this into a religious movement in my area, and hoping it spreads from there. Militia leaves a bad taste in people's mouths due to propaganda and the actions of a few misguided souls, turn it into a religious movement with people in the church willing to take up arms, then you've really got something that honestly can't be ignored or dismissed.

The Congress and Senate need to be abolished. The whole government way is too corrupted to fix and repair.

 

If we the people decide to keep Congress and Senate, then there needs to be strict guidelines in how long they stay in office and a limited number. No reason to have THAT many people in Congress. Now I won't go into detail what my thoughts are as far as that aspects go but you get the general idea. The president if doing a great job should be able to stay in office until he Is deemed unfit or he feels it's time to retire.  Congress and Senate should not be allowed in office more than one term. Again this won't eliminate corruption and greed. A new setup needs to be done with everyday people.

 

Having so many presidents in office is part of the problem as you have one thinking this way, another thinks a different way, etc etc. Then again it's a wonder if he's there for so long will he become corrupted. 

There is alot that needs to be done and alot that needs to be amended to correct everything. The people are suppose to be in control. So how do you root out corruption, deception, greed, and power mongers.

I personally would give anything to see things go back to the way they were in the days of the pioneers and the wild west. Where a man relied upon himself, his family, and his firearm. Where everyone was pretty much their own government to a point, and you didn't need to ask permission to live your life the way you saw fit.

I tell this story a lot.

 

During the first Obama campaign, I was standing in line at a Sarah Palin rally. My uncle and I, both loud and outspoken and with a tendency to "hold court" when we start speaking about politics, were doing exactly that while we waited interminably in this line. A crowd had gathered around us, most nodding their heads in agreement with everything we had to say. One guy, who hadn't spoken, finally chimed in...

 

...speaking in a thick Russian accent. My first thought was "this guy isn't even American, what could he know?"

 

By the time he was finished speaking, I concluded (and maintain to this day) that he's the most American person I ever encountered. He understood better than anyone what America is, and what it means to be American. And he (in his own words) "was a card-carrying Communist, Russian Navy Intelligence. I don't need for CNN to tell me what Communism is, I was one. And Barack Obama is a communist."

 

He detailed how he defected to America during the Reagan administration, with the equivalent of about fifty bucks in his pocket. Told of how he was essentially held prisoner for nearly two years while he was investigated, interviewed hundreds of times, etc. Told of how when he finally was allowed to walk out as a free man, he'd started working construction jobs, until finally he started his own small construction company and made it successful. "This is it," he said. "There is nowhere else to go. If the communists get America, all is lost."

 

He was asked what he'd do if that happened. "Hole up in my basement with my guns and wait for them to come for me. Like everyone else."

 

There was more--lots more--that he had to say, and all of it fascinating. He described how communism really works, how it destroys, how it's impossible to ever make it work without turning the people into slaves (which is how China makes their "communism" work), how it rewards laziness and punishes effort, and how people were "disappeared" when they rocked that boat. He spoke for a good 45 minutes, and was the best part of that whole day--and I sat just feet from Sarah Palin and Mike Ditka.

 

Yeah, he was that impressive. And yes, even as a non-native American, he understood what it meant to be American better than virtually every American I've ever known, including me.

 

We're "entitled", spoiled, and don't know what we've got here. Is it any wonder our children are so easily indoctrinated?

Fantastic story, I wish I could have listened to that man myself.

Ol Dinesh D'Souza is a good man, I have several of his books and have never regretted purchasing them.

I know he is a prime example of how America is supposed to work, yet it's sad a foreign immigrant is more American than most of our native born.

Well seems to me my Local Sporting Goods Store is FLAT OUT OF THEM so what was the point of this?

They're out there, soldiers have sticky fingers.

I remember back in Iraq there were a few trucks with a claymore mounted on their front bumper for whatever reason. Someone must have chewed them a new rear end because they didn't have them on there for more than a few days. If they set it off, the back blast would have taken out their radiators at the very least.

I knew an old nam vet who had a live one here in the states, kept it behind the door of his shop aiming into the doorway. He died of a heart attack and I have no idea what happened to it after that.

I should probably clarify that I have no clue if it actually was live, that's just what he said. But now he's dead so no harm in story time.

Well that's going to be interesting. Probably should put tape over the camera to cyoa
