Actually, I guess you could call it the 3rd American Revolution, the Confederacy lost the 2nd.
This is what I'm talking about. At what point do you (we) decide that it has gone too far and our only chance to restore the rule of the Constitution and our rights as free Americans is armed insurrection? The handwriting is on the wall, from the "Crime Bill" regulations, to the various state bans, ad infinitum. If anyone out there believes that the gun laws will ever loosen up or approach sanity, you are living in a dream world. I think all of us can agree that they (and numerous other laws) already violate the constitution, but none of us are ready to take that next awesome step. Many of us swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC. At what point do we take up arms against the domestic enemy?

Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal
weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the
monarch of all he surveys.
