Does socialism bum you out? It does me, to say the least. I mean, that’s putting it awful lightly.
Well, it bums out a member of the USCCA team as well. get a load of this, written by my buddy and assistant, Patrick:
Hey Tim,
I have never been one to hide my opinions, or keep my voice down. Can you tell?
This is what the back of my SUV has looked like for the past four days:

You wouldn’t BELIEVE some of the reactions I am getting from this.
Sadly, I have gotten zero smiles… zero nods… and zero cheers.
What I have gotten is an angry woman who followed me closely for five minutes on the freeway, snapping pictures. I was honked at while in town, and while driving in Lansing on Sunday, a little red Ford Focus honked and gave me the thumbs down.
This really bums me out, because I see Anti-Freedom stuff WAAAY more harshly worded than this all the time. Never once have I reacted angrily.
I guess that’s because I respect other people’s rights and freedoms. And these socialists clearly do not.
Anyway, it’s had me doing a LOT of thinking. With the ‘Emergency Preparedness’ kick that we’ve been working on, I have felt like there’s been a force at work, making sure NOBODY is prepared.
I realized today that there is. It’s the same force that HATES it when you carry concealed.
It’s the same force that compels some red-faced punk to glare at me and give me the thumbs-down, for driving an SUV with “Socialism Bums Me Out!” written on the back.
It’s the same force that compels someone whose family is stranded in a FEMA refugee camp to call “UNFAIR” when a family in a well-stocked Ford Pickup drives by.
And…. it will be the same force that will make looters feel justified to kick down your door and take what YOU have earned… for themselves.
I’m talking about the same force that depends on people being unprepared.
Why would Chicago or New York City ban YOU from carrying concealed there? Simple. Because THEY want control over the guns. They want you to depend on them for safety.
It’s the same reason Universities are not teaching, but TELLING young people what to think.
The same reason the liberals don’t want to stop illegal immigration: because the people coming here illegally will DEPEND on the government for care. They are not the hard working immigrants who came to America seeking Freedom- these ones are coming to seek hand-outs.
…and it’s probably the best case I’ve heard YET for getting prepared.
If we DEPEND on a force that hates our Freedom, we are enabling that force.
Over&Out,
Pat
Look- getting prepared is always a good idea. But if for no other reason, do it because you CAN.
Do it because there is no law against keeping 500 rounds of ammo in your closet. Because there’s no law against keeping a week’s worth of supplies in your pantry, or twenty gallons of gas in your garage.
Do it because you are a FREE American, and because you can take care of YOURSELF, and because you REFUSE to live by anyone else’s terms.
Stay safe,

I have far more than 500 rounds of ammo in my closet, but it is the food issue that I worry about.
I have a few 55 gal. drums of gas and one of diesel to keep my tractors running for a while, only for cultivating survival crops!
If the crap does hit the fan there will likely be no electricity so freezing food will not be an option. Canning, drying, and salting will be the only thing I’m aware of that might work.
I know that I have strayed from the topic of this thread, oops” sorry

I’ve had a saying for years since my time in VietNam, “You GET What You TAKE.” Think about it - if you take crap … you get crap. If you TAKE the things you wanted .. You Get What you Wanted. DO SOMETHING, Don’t just TAKE what someone just GIVES You. If you don’t like things … Don’t accept it - DO SOMETHING. DO SOMETHING About it. NOW!

I agree on the Bumper sticker idea.
I think I will cut me a vinyl lettering sticker for my SUV and see what kinds of responces I get.

IF A PROBLEM CAN BE SOVED,THEN THERES NO NEED TO WORRY—-IF A PROBLEM CANNOT BE SOLVED, THEN WORRY DOES NO GOOD.

Thank God for “real Americans”!Most of our ancestors came to America for freedom and we inherited it.
Obama is not “a real America”! He was born in Kenya, Africa. His step-grandmother was at the site when he was born.
United States Presidents must be born in the United States Of America. Obama’s phony B.C. states he was born in Hawaii. He wasn’t.
Real Americans need to get tough on this issue and demand that Obama step down. He is killing America, the spirit of America, and the wonderful heritage most of us share as passed down by our forefathers who fought and died to preserve our freedom. We must stand up and fight for America and our rights as “real Americans”. And thanks for the great message: “Socialism Bums Me Out!” We all need to put this on our cars!!!Thanks, Carolyn Gardner
