Dwight, I was referring to the writings of Thomas Jefferson. They wanted the public allowed to be armed to get rid of a tyranical government. That was the purpose a long time ago, It certainly would not be a viable solution today. At the time of the writings we had a representative republic fresh off of a revolution. We also had not had the civil war preventing the states from withdrawing from the union, and we did not have the patiot act where just discussion of such a thing can make you vanish without a trace.
Then again when I watch the news I wonder hmmmm ---- lol.
