Oh. Oh, No.

In a year in which socialist candidates are doing so well, competition for Bad Idea of the Year is fierce! However, we might have a winner already by about the halfway point.

Well, one often learns by making mistakes. Or, you know, someone else may learn from observing the experience.

By the way, the flaw in the plan isn't just the guns. It's the 'crash their system' idea. You are talking about people who are very comfortable operating without a system. When Hurricane Helene came through here, it absolutely crashed the system. Every system. The phones were out, the radios were out, the roads were all cut by fallen trees and washed-away bridges. Nobody waited for 'the system' to get fixed and start making things better. By noon I had a chainsaw militia clearing roads made up of every able-bodied man on the mountain and his chainsaw. Even once we began linking up the volunteer fire department and rescue technicians, guys with tractors were clearing roads the county wouldn't get to for days and the state wouldn't ever. 

FEMA? Never heard of her.

I wonder if that individual is related to the F@cebook Warrior who announced that if a disaster hit, he would go raid the Mormons because they are prepared with lots of food and supplies, but are also pacifists, and so easy targets.

There’s a reason people refer to the Four S Rule. And why “Rocky Top” has a ring of truth to it.

Is there a Darwin Award for groups as well as for individuals?

There are a lot of cities--I live in one that's surrounded by others of the same mind--where it would be...amusing...for the Left to try that sort of thing. And our police departments are not the departments of Chicago or Minneapolis-St Paul or..., nor are the city managers of that ilk.

I recall years ago urging patience rather than violence on this board and a couple of others. I'm rapidly running out of that supply and am beginning to look forward to the the Left's coming revolt. We could use a good filtering of the sewage.

You reckon that is a parody account?
Seems too stupid to be real.

In the spirit of Bogart's Rick Blaine:
"Well, there are certain sections of rural America, Antifaschistichkanonenfutterrekrut (Zwieter Klasse), - that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade."
