There is an old Chinese story concerning a young martial artist learning from a master. While training the master talks frequently about peace, how important it is and his love for it. The young man asks his master this question; “We train constantly for war, but you speak constantly of peace. Why is that?” The master replies; “It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.”
Well, yes it is, but so what? I think the founding fathers took this lesson to heart, whether or not they had heard the actual Chinese tale. One may maintain that the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is basically a law that provides for the populace of the U.S. to be warriors in a garden. We should be, thanks to the Second Amendment, if not exactly highly trained warriors, at least partially trained. That may not sound like much but it is many times better than being untrained and unarmed..
We are out-weaponized like the Indians before us. The only difference now is -
We are the Indians. Tag. You're "It".
While there may be some romance in the notion of going down like Mel Gibson or Kevin Costner in a movie, those are movies. Garden and feed people. Walk away and PRAY.

Resistance is futile, prepare to be assimilated. Let’s cower in our basements until we die.
There are other options. You just haven't thought of them yet. I pray you will.
"A BIT OF ADVICE, WHEN GOING THRU HELL ….. KEEP MOVING !!!"
This only works if you can walk super-duper fast and have no slow pokes with you. Like children or grandma or...or...
So...save your own hide and damn the rest. Great. Let's party like it's 1999.
As if there's anything other than more hell on the other side.
What else is there to say? Great post!
Great advice!
I am all in with you General. It's fucked up.
