By the way, they are 'extremist' in rhetoric - not in action. They don't do action, save for a little bit of vandalism.

Im not extreme and I support the 3%ers. These folks are merely exercising their rights and beliefs. Maybe they are proud of American heritage and the American revolution. I had heard that 3% of the colonialists defeated the British and created America. Im proud of that. Doesnt mean I have a stock pile of weapons or think the govt is out to get me. I do find it kind of extreme that supporting the Constitution is radical these days. Kind of a smack in the face to anybody that has defended our country.

If the group of merry three percenters is such a big joke, why do you devote so much of your time and energy to them. You have thrown yourself into the pot with all of this disorganized "riff-raff" and become exactly what you decry in your tirades. You become a product of your enviornment. You mock,cajole,ridicule and generally believe these people are idiots. What is a person who gives idiots notice and publicity? An idiot. Knuck.

What is Now, And what comes about from actions upon? Are............2 very different situations. Watch Charles Bronsons , "Death Wish" And The Sequels. This is a very good example of How Good people of sound moral principle react when pressured. It's Human nature. In my line of thought and beliefs it is Our Creators nature to survive, buildt in. Noone in the Militia is going Out looking for fights. Image for yourself if you will MG? They come to your door? Youhear a dog bark. It wakes You. All of a sudden you hear your door being smashed down in the middle of the night? Your childs room is just a few feet from the front door? You don't know who it is. You hear your child scream, DADDY! You run to their defense with you firearm. You see shadows of strangers ransacking your home. YOU FIRE on them to save your Family! Because............You cannot answer the definitive questions that you are presented with. All you will know at the time is...........What is my responsibility. What is My purpose in life? Who needs me the most at this time? What will I Do to protect the ones that will carry on My Line? Keep trying. You'll get it sooner or later. God Bless. MG?

That really doesn't sound like 'defending the doorstep' to me. Regarding "lets you and him fight", I guess it wouldn't be so tempting if your side wasn't so bold about talking a good killing and comparing yourselves to the glorious warriors of old. The fact is that I can't hold you accountable for Vanderboegh's bombast. Why you would choose to defend it escapes me. Update: I just caught your remarks over at SnowFlakes. I don't wonder why you folks aren't killing the anti-gunners: you guys have staked out a position that none of you will actually act upon. There is no mystery there. It's ok though, I thought it was a bad position from the start and I am glad it isn't going anywhere. Oldsmoblogger:
