Too many times in movies some protagonist mentions that they
can feel the storm a-comin’. That the
battle around the corner somehow causes the temperature to drop, and the
dreariness of the situation manifests itself with heavy and dark clouds.
That’s what it feels like as the government decides on how
to punish its citizens for the stupidity of the few. It’s been below -30 most nights here and I
can’t remember what above freezing feels like outside. I don’t think it could
get colder and bleaker, but each week Mother Nature tries to outdo Uncle Sam.
Seriously, though, there is a coming storm. I’m not a history buff, but if I was, I could
draw comparisons between 1860 and 2013. Rural
“buffoons” and urban “enlightened” people, and state’s enumerated rights all
seem to come full circle. I bet back in
those days, we didn’t have the bloated federal government and IOUs to the
planet to contend with.
It seems to me that the urbanites think that anything they
excrete into a toilet smells like roses.
Most believe that guns are evil and gun owners want to kill, kill,
kill. The police are their defense, and
most places have response time of minutes.
Further, guns must come with the black mask and black pillowcase that
they keep their loot in. I’ve tried to
explain that where I live, an hour response time from the sheriff is great, and
burglars don’t wait for the sheriff to come when I call. Anything that holds bullets must be some sort
of assault rifle. Basically, they are
uneducated and ignorant fools.
I feel a civil war brewing.
It’s getting more palpable by the minute. It’ll be over guns, but not because guns are
bad or evil. It’ll be over guns because
the President wants you to look at guns as the government spends the last of
the money and collapses. Guns are a way
to polarize the country in an instant, and with 24/7 media, can point out every
shooting and murder as another reason to get the guns. Anything to keep the attention off of the
upcoming collapse is their motive.
It’ll be a doozy when it comes. Everyone has a black or white answer for gun
control. Not a lot of people just don’t
care about the issue. It’s not a topic
that people can ride the fence on, like abortion, Social Security, or who’s
gonna win American Idol this season. It’s
a yes or no decision. And for the
people, like myself, who think that less control of guns and ammo in this
country is best, it puts us in the position of the Confederacy, the rebels, the
outlaws. We buck the accepted social
norm, or what the liberal agenda touts.
Where will it begin?
Will it start with the sheriff coming for my guns? Maybe. Maybe it will start before that, when the
sheriff refuses to get obey any order that confiscates my guns. Maybe.
Maybe it will start before that when State governors say no to the
Federal government’s order to take my guns.
Maybe. But whenever it does start,
there will be no switching sides. You
are either for the Constitution or for the current Government. Brother against brother, neighbor against
neighbor, the stories all sound vaguely familiar.
This revolution will be televised, but only by the liberal
media, and only while the food stamp checks clear the bank. After that… Your guess is as good as mine.
