I spent this last weekend helping to teach more than a dozen people how to become better skilled at arms,and about the events and individuals that stood up and MADE A DIFFERENCE on 10 April 1775, the day "the shot hard round the world" (along with a few thousand that followed that shot) was fired.

Donald Trump's response to the attempt upn his life is very like those w"well-regulated" men (and a handful of women) who rose to the need toat day. Taking no thought for their own "safety" or "comfort" they awoke in the wee hours, mustered out, and marched half the night to stand against the tyrants determined to further subjugate them. They stood firm and said NO.

It took almost another ten years to finally convince The King's Best that they would NEVER prevail against the true Sons of Liberty. And this nation was born out of that.

One of them later declared that the tree of liberty would ned watering from time to time with the blood of patriots.

That time is ow THIS time... there will be more blood to water that Tree in the coming months. But if I did not believe WE will prevail I'd ship off to some remote corner of this big dirtball and hibernate somewhere else.
