So TristanBW9456, my question is: When your friend/neighbor who is in the National Guard/Reserve/Police, comes up to you door - Are you prepared to pull the trigger? If not, you will take it laying down. If you will pull the trigger - ever done it before when a live person is in the sights? Ready to run forever? Can you survive as the prey rather than the hunter?
Just a quesiton.
Good luck.

I quess I should have said: Can you survive as the prey rather than the sheep you all are?
My mistake.
But, then again - if you are planning on resisting, then you become the hunter, and then the prey. Figure it out?
Boom!

I'm not gonna go off and hide in the woods, as that's not the kind of thing that interests me. I'm a philosophical type of person, and I can and will debate intil I die, whether by natural causes or not. I flat refuse to be stupid enough to attempt what's been suggested by Radekus, as that's just not going to get me anywhere near where I wanna be. I'm after what I like to call a happy equilibrium, where everyone has a balancing point, something where no on "has all the cards", to use a poker cliche loosely. The people need more of a say on what's done, that's all I'm trying to say.

So are you saying that we have no right to protest when we think something isn't right in the world? I'm not going to lay down and allow someone, anyone for that matter, to roll over me and control me in anyway that I feel is detrimental to me.

How could upping the stakes benefit me? All it would do is get me killed. Anyone that thinks that they can stand toe to toe with an angry grizzly bear, to use the metaphor loosely, would be completely insane.
So to answer your question, no I don't think that upping the stakes is an avenue that I would take, simply because the stakes you propose that we take are to a violent end.

What is the point of protecting your property with deadly force if you have to go live in the howling wilderness in order to survive that utter stupidity?
You hunkerdown and await your opportunity, oh wise tactician. You don't just willy-nilly go around shooting up convoys.
You sound a lot like those idiot militia-types from back in the 80's and early '90s who swore up and down that the end was coming. Gee-whiz...the black helicopters are coming, Mr. Revere... Yadda, yadda...yadda.
Try reality. it'll do wonders for your blood pressure.
