Since someone brought up the topic of the militia, I’ve been considering whether or not to attend some Michigan Militia meetings. Part of this is a gesture of protest against the “right wing extremism” comments of the administration, partly because I’ve got a really bad feeling in my gut that we are really moving (faster) toward communism. Glowbama and the Dums are putting pieces into place to silence free speech (aka talk radio tax, fairness doctrine, whatever), clamp down on guns (registration first, confiscation later), and marginalize other viewpoints (gee, I thought a few years ago this was patriotic). The propaganda arm of the government (NBC, ABC,…) is picking up the drumbeat (i.e. tea party coverage, “documentaries” demonizing firearms and especially those evil paranoid gun owners, etc) and pounding faster. I’m sort of stuck though, because I keep asking myself the following questions:
- who is the militia going to fight? The military? Law enforcement? These people are my heroes – how could I take up arms against them?
- I’ve heard that any of the state militias are pretty thoroughly infiltrated with Federal agents anyway. Joining may result my getting on a “domestic terrorist” list and losing my right to own firearms legally.
Thanks for any thoughts…
