AMERICAN MILITIAS

You do not have to read my thoughts if you have already read them on our militias.  So far, none have called a 'civil war' as they declare they will do if the government fails to liver up to its mandate for the people.  One might say that we are dangerously close though, again, that action is not what I would advocate as a first option.  However, I am not a young woman so it is not my thing.  I do not own a gun nor plan to at the moment.

You should watch the following video and see this site.  The speaker says:  "Remember that freedom is never free."    I would also have you read this article.  It is not something that we would have been familiar with on the daily news or obsessively verbal over nothing in the talk shows.  A CBS news report from Detroit writes:  It looks like the government got a little ahead of itself.  Keep in mind, this is only one of the militia units.  There are many of them and I am told they are well-armed.  You may note from this article that the biggest problem for the father and son were that they had an illegal machine gun.  The NRA has seen to it that guns are not a problem for people to get who wish to be well armed.  At this point in time, there are so many serious figurative fires that our government has to put out, this is only one of them and probably, after this judgment, not now of the highest priority.

It is easy for us to feel the enemy is not one of us but corruption in the government and politics suggests it is not wise to drop all caution.  I would not like to see us in a Civil or Revolutionary War.  I believe that, given the right to vote, which is at this time severely threatened as well, we should be able to settle the country down. With continued freedom to speak out, which has also been threatened, we could change much that needs changing.  Our greatest tool today is the communication that is taking place on Social networks and through communications like twitter, blogs, and other ways to get ideas heard.
