Brother Mr Mayor, Sir, just a thought: rather than participating ourselves, is this something we could perhaps get our children involved in? I'm not suggesting arming them - well, not the younger ones anyway, not with guns - but children are small and speedy and could create havoc with raiding parties. Also, I think the namby-pamby Bidenistas would hesitate to retaliate with like violence.

Sometimes armed resistance to overturn election results is the only way to protect democracy.

America knows that better than anyone. After all, we've done exactly that in Cuba, the Phillippines, Russia, Nazi Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Iran, Korea, Zaire, Indonesia, Vietnam, Chile, Uruguay, El Salvador, Grenada, Chad, Haiti, Panama, Afghanistan, and Iraq, to name a few. Now we may need it ourselves.

I'm worried that the Army still has bigger and better weapons. Why can private citizens own rapid-fire guns but not bombs?
Every time a person even looks into bomb-making or bomb-buying, the Federal Busybody Informants start messing around in their lives.
Do we or do we not have a Second Amendment? What right has the gov'mint got to draw the line--any line--between acceptable and non-acceptable weapons?
Can I own a grenade-launcher? (Seriously, I don't know. My forte is obscure Bible references.) How about a Howitzer? What exactly IS a howitzer and should it be capitalized in written form or not?
Those are great questions, Sister Handmaiden. Some of them involve the strategy of our citizen's army. For example, would it be better to have Howitzers and such, or, block streets and airport runways with thousands of children so the Army could not use them to move its weapons into place? We need to think about all of these issues.
I need these questions answered if I intend to shop around for a local militia. This is one of those very rare subject areas where one must range far afield of the Bible for answers, so I am completely out of my depth.
And now I am wondering about depth-chargers.

Talking about militias, in Haiti they are experimenting with a new type of democracy. Perhaps something we could bring up at Congress. Foremost the story makes me ask, why don't our leaders have names like Barbecue. It's all low energy this and sleepy that. I'd like to see better ring names. Mitch McConnell had the right idea with his "Grim Reaper" moniker but he never lived up to that, for me.
