jgoose71 0 #1 December 6, 2015 I thought this movie was awesome. While the acting isn't the greatest, it's based on true events. Here is the movie on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrR9Ye-Xj_0 And for those who don't have 1 hour 39 min, historical links to the event: http://constitution.org/mil/tn/batathen.htm http://www.americanheritage.com/content/battle-athens It's amazing the negative press these guys got in the aftermath also. Goes to show how little the Democratic party has changed in 70 years. But this story is a must for 2nd Amendment supporters."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying.

RMK 3 #2 December 6, 2015 So full-scale shootouts and blowing up buildings is the best way to solve problems? WTF does "Democratic Party" have to do with this or do you have a software script that automatically interjects democrat/liberals into all your posts? I understand you have a military background, but battlefield tactics don't really carry over into civilian matter resolution.

jgoose71 0 #3 December 6, 2015 The moral of the story went way over your head. I can understand though if your from Europe. You guys have been conditioned to "Go along to get along." It's better to submit to corruption and tyrants than to risk getting hurt, right? Besides, it's not your job to fight. You got people for that. Never mind if it's the people that are supposed to be protecting you that are abusing you, you got someone else you can call. Just keep in mind that the Mayor knew the state Governor and no help was coming. And yes, I do have a military background and every other issue that those guys faced when they got home I've had to face also (except for going "V" for Vendetta on the town hall that is) to include guys not fitting in, wives and husbands trying to figure out how to live together again, and suicide. I thought it was a really good movie."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss."

Apparently you've never heard of Winston Churchill. Yup, hardly any wars have ever been fought by Europeans. Just a long line of peace for centuries over there. What they need is some good old Yankee backbone to show them how to stand up for what's right.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

So by your post, one can come to the conclusion that, you can avoid the specific question and insert your own. the question matters little to you, so you twist it to avoid answering, simply because it doesn't fit your narrative.

You are not my priority. Also, I'm sorry you see a flaw in my OP. It's about sometimes having to take action when evil is in your face, like the Americans who stopped the mass shooting on the train to Paris. YOU are the first line of defense when things like this happen. Or you can cower and wait to take a bullet to the head while waiting for a real man to arrive....usually carrying a gun...YMMV But in UK, Paris, Gemany, etc... you gave away your right to self defense to the government.

Bolas 5 #18 December 6, 2015 jakeeWhen did the police last beat and shoot an innocent black man? I dunno really, it's kinda hard to keep up with them! Define innocent. If someone, regardless of ethnicity is in process of committing a crime, have just committed a crime, and/or have warrants out for their arrest, they're not innocent.Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

If someone, regardless of ethnicity is in process of committing a crime, have just committed a crime, and/or have warrants out for their arrest, they're not innocent. Um, yes they are, under the law.

Or falsely innocent until they are forced to admit otherwise.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
