A recent parade of armed Americans flying flags from a pickup truck convoy in Portland “reminded me of the scenes of ISIS mobilizing in armored columns in Mosul,” says Javed Ali, a Michigan-based former senior director for counterterrorism at the National Security Council.
“And I thought, ‘Wow, this is the United States, and yet we’re seeing something that has the iconography of terrorism overseas.’ It’s unprecedented ... and it’s a real sort of challenge: What is the line between protected activity for U.S. citizens and what’s the line into something that looks like terrorism?” |

Yea, well, with Beto O'Rourke, Eric Swalwell, Kamala Harris, Slo-Joe Biden, et al, all clamoring to take away AR-15s and trash the Second Amendment, and add THAT to some demorat governors allowing antifa and BLM rioters to run amok, it's hardly surprising that We, the People, are trying to coordinate some force for our protection.
Governors: grow up, stop whining and DO YOUR APPOINTED JOBS AND SECURE THE PEACE AND GOOD ORDER!!!!!!!
And leave our Constitutional Rights ALONE!!! |

"...according to numbers from the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism."
Yeah, that's a source we can count on.

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
