I thought you were supposed to be a smart guy? The report is full of lies, from a lying Govt. agency. You've been handed far too much money in life, professor. You can pay a larger share of this latest TROG debacle.

"...but I have always been a very good observer of my fellow countrymen and women." I can say the same.

"Ha ha. The revolution was precipitated by a 3% tax on imports. What does the "armed populace" get now? Surveillance cameras on street corners, traffic light cameras, speed cameras, wars fought on the basis of lies, NSA spying, TSA in the airports, taxes upon taxes, and the best Congress money can buy. Yep, that "armed populace" has certainly prevented abuses." Laugh it up, old man. You're being protected by those that you mock. Go ahead & hide w/your skirts & Berkley collectibles...

"The vociferous members of the 101st Keyboard Militia will protect America...... I think not." An armed & determined Populace aren't keyboard Rambos. Your bordering on being rude...

We disagree. Enough already. You're not going to change my mind, or prove me wrong.

I think you will find Hellfire BOOM's are more effective... the real Death from Above.. Who owns all of those again?? Who controls them? The same evil corporate intere$t$ that have been frustrated at not controlling the populations of Afghanistan & Iraq for the past 13 years... They can't subdue those populations, & the United States would be far harder. What percentage of the military personnel wouldn't tell the brass to shove it when ordered to fire on US citizens? Getting young troops to attack brown people half a world away, is one thing. Those same propaganda tricks won't work when they're asked to turn America into a battleground. A10s & attack choppers would be a lot more effective than Hellfires, btw. There are hundreds of millions of us, & how many such aircraft?? History has plenty of examples where unrestrained total warfare against a seemingly weaker populace has failed to subdue them. The Russians threw everything they had (except nukes) against the mountain people of the Ghan, for a full decade. The Russians got their asses handed to them. They gave up & left, abandoning much of their equipment.

I forgot your real name, Amazon. I think we simply disagree on something. Yes, there are certainly a fair percentage of Sheeple walking around this land. However, there are also many more angry, aware People in society than I think you realize. For example, I remember Huckabee's remarks on illegal immigration when he ran for President. It was during an unguarded moment of an interview. He was absolutely dumbfounded that America was fully prepared to have a second Revolution over the Feds trying to bulldoze through legalization of the illegal. I've got nothing against you. I think we'll just have to agree to disagree on this.

"They have to find me first......" Then, go run & hide. For surely, the powder Keg WILL go Boom...

"With all due respect, "beyond a reasonable doubt and with DNA" is not a legal standard." No disrespect taken. Beyond a reasonable doubt, & other levels of proof didn't exist before we created them. We did so in response to a broken & unfair system. Sounds like we're broken, again. We can codify new standards, no? Those two Men suffered 21+yrs of prison, w/damage that will probably last the rest of their lives. I only hope they can sue the guilty jurisdiction into the stone age. If not, THAT definitely needs to get fixed. Unjust Laws promote Vigilantes.

Rigggggghhhhht You're a bright Gal, Amazon. Surely you don't think all People are Sheeple? An armed Populace has been keeping bad people from pulling too much crap for >200 years. That will not work for a far better armed police state. Better armed than the US Military?? I seem to recall they've been having some difficulties over the past 13+ years. Those have been mainly in a sandbox environment. How many Fallujahs are in this Country, Amazon?

Blacks don't want beef, chicken, vegetables, dairy, beer, booze, chips, fruits, juice, frozen foods, candy? Given the frequent complaints that poor neighborhoods are food deserts, relying on liquor stores for groceries, your statement seems irrational at best, racist at worst. Ghetto stores don't sell a whole lot of gourmet fair... Nothing Racist about that. Stop baiting. TJ's is a specialty store. Been in many Ghetto stores, have you? It's not irrational. I'm speaking from years of experience. I've been in more crappy neighborhoods (work) over the years than I care to remember.

Nothing... they have been trained to say BAAAAAA Alrighty Amazon, but I hope you remember to duck when the time comes. I don't want you to get hit in the face when we throw in the towel...

Yes, it does. Our system is so subject to error (by virtue of being filled with people) that if we have a death penalty then we are going to put innocent people to death. This is only the most recent example of that fallibility. Maybe you consider that acceptable... I've already said that I don't. What it means, is the burden of proof needs to be raised. It also means independent review of LE actions is necessary. The LE community howls whenever faced w/that, but too damned bad. If They weren't f'ing up. They wouldn't have brought it upon themselves. The burden of proof is "beyond a reasonable doubt." What do you propose to raise it to? DNA proof seems to be a good place to look. That, along w/systemic improvements I mentioned earlier.

Rigggggghhhhht You're a bright Gal, Amazon. Surely you don't think all People are Sheeple? An armed Populace has been keeping bad people from pulling too much crap for >200 years.

CRT (Charleston River Rats), Toxic Avengers, ERZ (Elk River Zombies) ?? I'm not belittling what occurred in any way. I'm just having a little fun w/the names.

"I am betting it will not even be part of the equation. Too many people worship those who control everything and they will be able to hire the very best well trained for companies like Xe to serve them." Far fewer armed People have caused tremendous unrest & bloodshed for those that would cow them. History is full of such examples. There are >80 million registered gun owners in the US. Plus, all the illegal guns out there. Every single owner of them needs water to survive. Try taking that water away, & watch what happens to them.

"You do not really believe that LE is there to protect and serve do you???" I've met good & bad in that regard. Police only have official power because society allows them to have it. If abused, we can & will take it back.

Yes, it does. Our system is so subject to error (by virtue of being filled with people) that if we have a death penalty then we are going to put innocent people to death. This is only the most recent example of that fallibility. Maybe you consider that acceptable... I've already said that I don't. What it means, is the burden of proof needs to be raised.

They wouldn't have brought it upon themselves.

Yep. That's what this Country needs: another 2.3 MILLION TROGs ... Way to go, Obamanos. Jackass

"Control the food sources... control the water sources... ( pollute those you can't control) and you control the people. Unless >80 Million of those People are armed, that is..." FIFY .

This doesn't make the Death Penalty wrong, Normiss. It makes some reprehensible people on the LE community deserving of being thrown in prison for decades, themselves. There has to be much more penalties for such repugnant behavior by LE. Only then will such egregious instances of Injustice, cease.

Sorry, but I take offense at this statement: "Rents would increase and the blacks couldn't afford to live there anymore because Section 8 housing would be gone." I meant working poor members of the Black community. There may or may not be Section 8 housing within miles of that neighborhood. Low level community Leaders losing their power, would come after the fact. Was that on Leaders' minds when they raised the red flags? It probably was, but most/all of the local Leaders would be forced to move, as well.

TJ's is far from a typical ghetto store. The Blacks there are fearing gentrification. They don't want more of that kind of business money brought into the area. TJ's sells mostly items the black community doesn't want, to people the black community doesn't want around...

[I]"Chaos" .

These show the status quo - that people are still in a legal trap with the feds. Fortunately, prosecutions for false 4473s has been nonexistent for the past 3 presidents, back to when the Brady Bill first came. But that could change with a single executive decision. Obama/Holder have flip flopped a few times, and with the next GOP administration, who knows what you'll get. A LOT could change w/a single Executive Decision. They wouldn't like what it got them... That's the entire point of the SA. Schmarht Guys, those Founding Fathers.
