Well said on every point.

You know me--I am the last person who would suggest a community just lie down and let their rights be stripped. But the days of good old fashioned shoot 'em ups are long gone. Anyone who thinks equipping citizens with the right to shoot semi-automatics at a fully automatics, grenades, rocket launchers, sonic disruptors, and bombs is just...good lord. Am I saying the government would be right to use these weapons against our own people? Hell no. But that doesn't mean I can't acknowledge the possibility. This ship has sailed--the one where you take up arms to defend your rights. That should have been done generations ago as autonomy was slowly being stripped from our national citizens through desensitization, endoctrination, and drug abuse. These days I'm not even sure I'm altogether skeptical about the flouride theories. At any rate, the options proposed by community militias are no longer viable. And the leaders who propose them are doing nothing more than leading sheep to slaughter.
