    Walk softly, and throw your stick away.

    Have you written or called your Congressperson; you're on their list?
    Are you a veteran; you're on their list?
    Are you a member of gun forum; you're on their list?
    Have you ordered anything gun related online; you're on their list?
    Member of the NRA; you're on their list?
    Bought any preparedness supplies; you're on their list?
    Bought any food storage supplies online; you're on their list?
    Bought any seeds online; you're on their list?
    Any association with the Tea Party; you're on their list?
    Ordered any conservative books online; you're on their list?

    Jimmy Hoffa says to "take the suns a bitches out" from the Tea Party, and that's an example of calm and moderation.
    Why wait? Turn your guns in early; beat the rush. God forbid anyone should do what will be against the law.

    I don't have a problem with who said it or what he said, but his timing was off.. THAT needed to wait until the point of a major political shift in the wrong direction.. But he didn't single anybody out, he made a blanket statement and an exaggerated one at that.

    I've commented on this in earlier discussion, we need people like him. I'd bet he would do exactly as he said, in the right scenario. Would you? Would any of you risk your lives for your beliefs? I know there are plenty of service men out there that have proven themselves and would likely do so again. We need those people to protect us from enemies both foreign and domestic. And I still stand by my opinion that even though it wasn't the ideal situation, he helped make it known that not everybody is willing to roll over and give in and that they better make wise decisions.

    By the way, those sophisticated grown up discussions everybody has come to expect and love so much, that's called politics.. A bunch of people talking about what they're gonna do all while being less than proficient at doing so...

    I haven't spent any time checking into his BG so I don't know. What made his career brief and horrible? Just curious for my own knowledge.

    Youtube James Yeager ambush. He is he one abandoning the car on the right, bailing on his teammates, instead of driving out.

    First option, drive out. If vehicle is dead, backup plan is #2 vehicle pushes you out. He did neither.

    I know the story, there are many different versions.

    Never mind. It won't mean a damn thing.

    I apologize for offending you, that was not my goal. I've never claimed to be the grand keeper of knowledge, nor would I expect anyone to take such a claim by me seriously. That said, I've done my reading, I've asked the knowledgeable, and the general consensus is that he was wrong and that he didn't follow SOP.

    But only 1 video. I've read yeager's AAR. He was complacent, careless, and didn't do what he was supposed to. That is in his own report.

    Have you ever been shot at ?

    I have no problem with what he did and that he had the class to admit it. He's far from being a coward.

    He made an apology video so he is instantly forgiven and his CCW permit re validated. Right??? His apology video should be taken as seriously as his threat video...

    I think he is funny. Heck, I think he is a comedian. So, like Jamie Foxx, he gets a pass. Right??? He was just trying to get attention by saying something controversial...

    The right to keep and bear arms is an individual right. We shouldn't need a "leader" to follow. Each of us are responsible to exercise and protect our own rights as individuals.

    The "we need a leader" mentality bothers me when it comes to this issue. Ultimately, the decision to end a life in order to save a life is an individual choice. Relying on someone else to tell you when and how is as irresponsible as some people are saying Yeager was.

    If you can't think for yourself enough to decide and act on your own, maybe you aren't responsible enough to bear arms in the first place.

    What do you think?

    We absolutely need leaders to follow.. We need to have 1 voice.. There are over thirty million gun owners in this country.. That's power.. We need to have 1 voice, 1 mission..

    The rights we enjoy are individual rights, bought and paid for with the life and blood of many American patriots through out this countries short history..

    This country was founded but a very short time ago.. The rights we enjoy were paid for with the blood of our forefathers, I hope we're not the generations that loses those rights.. If we do, we never deserved them in the first place..
