A militia billing itself as a security force is vowing to protect the Second Amendment. The Three Percent Security force, named after those who fought in the American revolution (It's said - only three percent of the colonists fought against the king's tyranny) says they're preparing to "uphold and defend the constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic." They train like a military, "basic infantry man skills, everything from communications to combat lifesaving medical first aid." Founded in Henry County, the group started out as an anti- President Barack Obama group, before openly supporting President Donald Trump's run for President. ... The group said they'll vow to protect the Second Amendment, even under Trump. |

I strongly respect those who form or serve in militias when the purpose is to defend the U.S. Constitution and esp. the Second Amendment. However, in truth I cannot say I believe President trump is any danger to the 2A. His sons are gun owners, hunters, and IMHO, have shown their father the light on the 2A. If Hillary Clintoon had won, the matter would be entirely different ---- and we may yet face her kind again in the future!!!! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
