so you sheepdog guys don’t view yourselves as a part of the public......more of an elite group of protectors just waiting in the wings to start kicking some ass when the time is right ? When the sheep start getting pushed around and bullied sheepdogs start coming out and taking control of the situation ?
 
I'm a German Shepard... and yes of course, we're absolutely better than the public! Common man superheros ready to pounce on injustice from the backseat of our pickup trucks (figuratively speaking :D)
 
Rick, by "armed response" are you talking about armed fighting or the time when an armed protest where it's not permitted would be the thing to do. It seems like we are talking two separate issues.
1) an armed protest march where that weapon is not allowed by law.
2) armed fighting.

I would think that a protest(s) with carried arms should and would be tried long before something like a second civil war erupts. Is this the time for that? Protests both legal and illegal were used for years before the 1776 Revolution. Many meetings were held and grievances sent to King George (legal protest) as was the Boston Tea Party (illegal protest)

I just want to be clear on your post. Thanks.
 
Well I guess when you look at it like that... one sort of follows the other doesn't it? If you go so far as to have an "Armed Protest" things are on their way to an "Armed Intervention/Fight", aren't they?
I was sort of generalizing it, because, this is a response to the Gov'ts actions; and the response contains armed individuals lol... But I was more or less speaking of Term #1... Term #2 is what I am afraid is going to happen with this "show of force" parade.
 
I hope they burn some French flags while they are at it. Get their guns taken away and thrown in jail for breaking the laws....lots of people take that medicine for what they believe they need to be doing....God Bless America for that
Besides these guys aren’t going to get guns banned.....after the massacre in CT that didn’t do it no matter how many times the president used them as a backdrop for his rant and personal agenda, these folks aren’t going to cause it.
hell a lot of people who don’t own guns are probably ok with an armed protest in dc these days….health care, jobs….you know the crap that actually makes the country work. We as a nation need to regroup remember where we came from, worry less about what everyone else is doing and focus on bettering ourselves….

Like I said before, when are we making you President? :D Can you make sure I don't have to pay for my aunt and cousins who've been leeching on welfare all their lives??? That would be great!

lol....I would be good at the forest fire part lol

Lets face it oli, you're probably a little too honest, a little too hard working, and too American to be president ;)

This country needs exactly this kind of tough love but will never get it.

Rick, thanks for clarifying.

Here's an update from the Facebook page. It sounds like it is going forward. With it planned this far in advance it should help some coordination take place for it to remain non-violent.
UPDATE 130506 Now that it's undeniable that this is going to happen, allow me to make clear how. There will be coordination with DC law enforcement prior to the event. I will recommend that they do the best they can to honor their oaths and escort us on our route. Failing to provide that commitment to safety, we will either be informed that we will only be allowed up to a certain point where we would be arrested. If this is the case, we will approach that point as a group and if necessary, I will procede to volunteer myself to determine what their actual course of action with someone crossing the line will be at which point fellow marchers will have the choice of joining me one at a time in a peaceful, orderly manner, or turning back to the National Cemetery.

lol Oli, I meant to be a smart ass about the sheep dog thing... As for the second part, I missed some information there... I was referring too Gun Owners when I said "we..." By no means was I separating the "sheep dog community" (if you will call it that) from the General Public or calling any of us an "elite group of ass kickers".... But I can see how you took it that way when I left some information out.

You know while I used to be all for the concept of being a sheepdog... the idiotic behavior of so manny of our fellow American citizens really makes me think twice about wanting to waste my ammo in protection of them...

(Women and children not included of course!) ;)

Children at least.

Not so sure about anyone else.

All adults pave their own course and make their own decisions. If they choose to make bad ones, it's not my responsibility to be their protector. I may would, but most likely not, but if I did, is not because I am obligated to provide for them and risk my life in the process.

There are too many vampires sucking at the tit already.
 
I think now-a-days you are better off remaining silent about your sheepdog ways... BECAUSE of the actions of so many, in the name of "Freedom" and "Gun Rights" or "2a".. we are coined as terrorists and extremists... OR we are called Mall Ninjas which really only applies too a few guys, not to name any but Oli has a new set up he calls the "Modern Musket" ... Anyone see that thing?? :lol: :lol: :lol:
(Someone get the butthurt report ready, I'm going to need it after that comment :D )
 
I agree with what Oli just posted. I don't think these guys are goin to get guns banned. I do not believe I will be joinin them though.

Maybe their actions specifically won't get them banned but dependent on the turn out of this event (if it happens) it can be twisted to aid the Left's attacks on our rights...


"Breaking News: Assault on Capital turns Deadly" is what the news would report when really it was suppose to a show of force and support for our rights.

Idk... I just don't see ANYTHING good coming of this and would rather avoid it happening then supporting what it could do for us...

Well, maybe. There is safety in numbers and showing that you are actually on their side may make many wake up and smell the coffee instead just rolling over. IDK, just a thought. Hopefully it never comes to that and we can all look back at this time as a time when we prepared for worst but didn't need to use our weapons to defend ourselves. There is a lot to be said about assured mutual destruction as being a deterrent...and I'm not just talking about nukes...

There is stupidity in numbers and them showing me that they are actually on our side may make me more sympathetic but it's doubtful.

I like this outcome.....but I hope you aren’t talking about AIDS

That is Exactly what all the softie gun owner said in Oregon when they found out a lot of us were going to carry at the first rally....it went off without a hitch......the second rally EVRYONE was packing, even those wet noodles that were sure nothing good was going to come of it....no one got shot at the second one either

Not at all worried ,I have been called worse by better people

The truth

There are different degrees of this…..if I am on a sinking boat, I am going to start shoving people in life boats….dont care who they are we are all living through that…..but if the North Koreans come its going to be my imidiate family, friends and their family….after that it will be people who can bring something to the table…..and they still have to pass the smell test

The sheepdogs can have at the sheep all they want, slip into a phone booth
(a small structure furnished with a phone and designed for a user's convenience. Often placed in a common area like a street corner Rick)
And come bursting out donning a shemagh and a tac vest yelling “this way everyone, I’ll protect you”


They will stab you in the back….bank on it.
More than one time people thank us up and down as we save their house from wildfire, right up to the front door sometimes….the coin us” hero’s”….yeah I know…..point is those same people call next week “you asses got fire retardant on my house and motor home”……we go out and wash their house and motor home with the same fire engines, while they watch because if we don’t it’s a call higher up the chain…..that is sheep for you, have fun with them
