The difference between what's happening now and the turmoil of the past is the manipulation of the masses ... millions.... because it's so easy to get the misinformation to them.

It's been said that republics like ours, think Rome, only last about 200 years. There's a reason for that. People become complacent, spoiled. They are bored and will look for meaning from anyone. The people who want to rule us have coordinated their efforts by manipulating a segment of the population known for emotional, anti social behaviour. They've legitimized it.

If you don't think this can turn even uglier very very quickly, you are a fool.

WHAT DOES IT HURT TO BE READY?

People like you are the problem. Keep kicking the can further down the road. How long will you wait? Until they knock on your door?

So what did you have in mind? You want to organize a counter protest where we all just go and shoot antifa/BLM in the streets? You think that is going to work in your favor?

The reality is that they are a tiny portion of the population. People who are awake to what is going on is also a tiny portion of the population. The issue is who wins the hearts and minds of that 90%.

Right now Antifa/BLM is alienating the vast majority of that 90%. I know people who never talk politics, and probably tend to lean left who are waking up.

I agree. The nazis were able to turn the average german citizenty against the jews with propaganda juat like what we are seeing used against white people today. BLM has become the brown shirts. Get guns, get ready. They have been very open about the fact they either want you dead or a slave.

I've been watching Nazi docs for three days now. It is insane how this parallels that. We are in serious trouble. The time is now to get ready and make preparations.

I was chastized for telling people to buy guns

I find that as believable as people on old T_D threatening cops.

There is a lot of anti cop sentiment on this site, just look back at posts about people getting charged with crimes for breaking lockdown procedures. Threats against cops were definitely made on reddit and those voices grew louder in recent months on here.

Making a claim and following it with an unrelated fact is a bullshit tactic of leftist news organizations. Why are you doing that here?

OhGonzo 0 points ago +1 / -1

I did that because you are making it seem like no one involved with the Donald reddit or win could possibly make a threat against cops. My fact was relevant because it is an example of that behavior. If you can't see the obvious connection, I can't help you.

Using outliers and trolls to define a group is bad and you should feel bad.

You used an absolute, maybe you should not do that. I do not feel bad about you making an inaccurate statement.

I wouldn't use that as an argument, the cops have a choice to enforce things or resign. I just understand every single person (yes you and me included) are not perfect and commit horrible sins in this life.

You are doing exactly what retarded leftists do when you are demonizing a whole group for the actions of individuals, but that's your prerogative in this country. People can hold opinions that suck, it's a free country.

Buy snap caps. They're cheap fake ammo. You can practice dry firing (don't dry fire rimfire weapons) without damaging the pin, and you can practice ejecting, clearing, loading.. .. all in your livingroom.

It's not as valuable as actual firing time, but the loading, pointing, ejection, repeat practice helps.

Show her how to disassemble a gun. At a minimum, show her how to run a barrel snake through so she can clean it easily with one motion.

Finally, instead of blowing through hundreds of rounds on your own, spend a couple hundred $ on basic training. Often they supply the ammo and you'll get way more bang for your buck.

Not sure anyone provides Ammo w training - unless it’s severely marked up. Buy in bulk : Ammo Seek dot com.

You cannot legally do that

You also cannot legally hand out guns like that warlord does, yet the Feds are perfectly okay with it because of muh rayzism. It is legal as long as you don't get caught or nobody cares.

Buy steel case pistol/rifle ammo.

I get my rifle ammo from https://www.outdoorlimited.com/

About every other month they get a massive shipment of tula rifle ammo and you can buy it pretty cheap. They also have a membership fee that allows you to avoid paying shipping. Shipping on 5k rounds is expensive

KingKek33 1 point ago +2 / -1

One thing to note: if you shoot steel cased rounds, you MUST clean the chamber before using brass cased rounds.

Steel does not expand in the chamber and allows for carbon build-up. This is how brass cases get stuck and wont eject.

Edit: whoever down-voted me needs to study their firearms. Lolol

"Brass ammo is generally considered to be better than steel-cased ammo because it creates a better chamber seal than steel, and thus you have less blowback into the chamber and the receiver.

Brass is better at this sealing action because it is more malleable than steel, so it expands to more snugly fit the walls of the chamber and thus you have less gas and unburned powder that passes back into your gun every time it’s fired."

Yep. I clean my guns like a crazy person after range trip. I like to put the chamber/starfish brush on my cordless drill and got to town.

RolandDelacroix 1 point ago +1 / -0

It's also useful to sneak some random snap caps into the wife's range mags, and vice versa, so you get used to clearing drills.

A great training aid, albeit more difficult to use with weapons like the AR platform that have to be cocked after each trigger pull unless fired, are laser trainers.

A laser trainer is chambered like a bullet and when the firing pin is strikes it, it "fires" a brief laser pulse, letting you see where your shot would have hit. It also reveals if you jerked the trigger or moved the gun, resulting in a short laser line rather than a nice round dot.

If your pistol is DA definitely get a laser trainer for it, but remember that during actual fire (unless DAO), all but your first shot will be single action. There's also a gizmo available for ARs that lets you recock with just a short tug on the charging handle, specifically for use with such devices.

+1 for snap caps. Last gun show I was at they had ones that activated a laser and worked with a phone app too. You point the phone at a target and it picks up the lazer shot from snapcap. Seems gimmicky but in person it worked really well. Its like a low energy duck hunt with your own firearm.

Cutter 1 point ago +1 / -0

I didn't see your post before my reply to another... 'snap caps' are inert bullet replicas; what you're describing are 'laser trainers' or 'laser training bullets'.

Rome lasted 200 year? U Wot?

4
PabstBluePanzer 4 points ago +4 / -0

Too many people get caught up in only thinking about the "Pax Romana". Rome's rise was very slow and it's decline wasn't a straight line and lasted for centuries. This is nothing to say of the oft-forgotten Eastern empire....... but your comment makes me think you knew that. ;)

FullAutoFlintlock 4 points ago +4 / -0

sadly I own Decline and fall of the roman empire. read all 4000 pages atleast once. Now I got it on Audible kinda cool being able to listen to sections. shit, even cathrine was trying to resurrect the holy roman in the 1790s, 1450s when the muzzies finally took over, but that was still considered Romam to the world. alittle more than 200. I get the point tho, Rome the Republic was short lived

FREEDOM1st 3 points ago +3 / -0

I think OP is remembering a supposed quote from some Scot or frenchman (maybe) about how republics only last 200 years, and conflated it with Rome.

"The following quotation has been attributed to Tytler, although it has also been occasionally attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville:

"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to complacency; From complacency to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage."

Not really but it's fine, no one cares about history, barely anyone here know 1750-1800s American history, our most critical. If they do it's all fucked up and wrong it seems. but.oh well, maybe the left will finally destroy that tedious thing

Yeah.. agree.

I have 2 9mms, shotgun, 5.56 AR that can shoot .223 also, and even two .22 ARs with 1800 fps rounds

I have 1500 rounds but only 1000 are 9mm and 5.56

I think we should all have 1000 rounds PER weapon minimum

Okay so I've been one of the voices saying "we're not there yet." Well, I think we might be there, now. Here's my question:

How do I get training? One man army type of stuff. Not how to fire a gun...I know that. I mean, where do I learn how to actually take defensive action, fight multiple attackers in my home, handle a total breakdown scenario in a city, get my family to safety, etc.

If there a good youtube channel? A book? Please help.

Ask your local gun range or Gun Shop. They'll know who is out there
