Sad But True
 
When the foreign (NATO) soldiers drive up in your yard and unload with machine guns...you will give them your guns. :-(

Hi Bro Joiner,

Good to see you, are you still in Belize?
What you say is true & knowing a little Biblical prophecy, not far off.

First they will have to find my Tennessee hillbilly compound in the middle of nowhere. Then they will have to get past a few semi-automatic rifles and a few dozen 30 round magazines loaded and ready to go.

They will be to busy rounding up city slickers to bother with a few folks living life in the hills and hollows of a rural state.

Plus while the country has made a huge tilt to the left in elections the last 8 years this past time it was mostly because the left got out and voted and conservatives stayed home and whined about the Republican candidate not being conservative enough.

With that in mind if the left tries to over reach with some crazy things there will be a quick and hard tack to the right in the next couple of elections as conservatives will finally be motivated to vote for the most conservative candidate that can actually win an election rather than sitting home because their favorite ultra conservative did not get nominated.

I will hand it over. In obedience to the law of the land. I have a gospel to preach. I will leave the resistance to the revolutionaries. I bid them godspeed, and will always pray that it never comes down to that level of corruption, knowing that it probably will, but God is in control.

I don't own a gun ...so there will be nothing to hand over.

I do have a BB gun to shoot unwanted animals in their bohiney in the attempt to run them off that terrorize my property though. :D

I wonder if they will confiscate my BB gun? :blink

Look for civil war.

Look at Mexico. Very restricted gun laws, no end to the violence!

Civil war! Coming to a city near you!

I think the biggest problem is there is a great chasm between East and West Coast urban dwellers and the "middle of the country" that is much larger in size but not population.

People who have spent their entire lives in NYC or San Fransicso, etc can't fathom why anyone would own guns. Particularly rifles. The big city life does not lend itself well to having a gun unless you live in the hood and just want to kill or rob people.

In the South where I live for most families it is a way of life to own guns, hunt, target practice, or in my case to have some for home protection and any eventuality should a natural or man made catastrophe take place.

Would you seriously give your life for a gun?

Do you have a family?

Children will be better off with a gunless parent.

I think he means "Children will be better off with a gunless parent" than a DEAD parent.

As one of the old timers in this region said, "Everybody slept with their doors unlocked at night because everybody assumes that there are several guns within reach". Nobody dared to invade anybody else's home.

Better to die for the name of Jesus and his teaching than the right to own a gun. The rights that are most important to me are the ones given by him. I was asked to leave a survival forum I was on for 9 years this week merely because I asked what will the new government stand for at the end of CW2. They were very angry over that. They themselves may kill me before the Socialists do!

Well, in this case I hope you give whatever weapons and ammo you DO have to someone who is willing to use it before giving it to the authorities.

No. And I have a dozen neighbors willing to back up my decision. I even have a sheriff (Sheriff Joe!) who will stand by me.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio?

Thanks. I heard a story about some 'prophetic' vision George Washington supposedly had about another civil war.

I don't know if he actually had that vision...but things are looking bad.

I have the book on his vision. It is more of a battle against foreign invasion. Many people feel it is not a genuine work from Washington.I find it interesting reading.

There was a movie years ago called "Amerika". It started with the premise America had gotten so bad the Russians under the authority of the UN had come to this nation to teach us to be a peaceful people.

I could almost see it this way:

The "Patriots" begin a civil war because of the growing abuse against the Constitution. In time the administration calls in UN forces to help quell the fighting. They are here. Russians and Chinese ruling over us. Gods answer to Americas sins.

Before we ever knew each other my wife and I both had visions of Chinese troops being in America.
