I suggest people read "The Weapon" by Michael Z. Williamson to see what a trained group of people could do. Or study the history books; Viet Cong for example.<br /><br />What is even worse is the implicit approval of depriving people of their rights. That is it okay to send the military out to round up people and firearms.<br /><br />It is sad to see that so many people are so ignorant of history - "Those that do not remember History are doomed to repeat it". We've been down this path before - it didn't end well for the existing government.<br />Bob S.http://3boxesofbs.comnoreply@blogger.com
