Oh I think your right. They are way over reaching and there is already risings with these tea parties and what not that are getting a lot more folks to them then I would have imagined. There are a lot of pissed off people of a sudden which brings me to this cut and paste I received via PM.

Quote of the Day
CHICAGO BOYZ
By Jonathan on Society

" I don't think people are thinking overthrow of the government. I think the prevailing sentiment is anarchy, which coincidentally fits right in with law enforcement buying and training sprees.

Bubbling right below the surface, I think there's an unspoken sense of alarm that there's a great deal of social unrest, political outrage, economic turmoil, force-fed liberal social spending, a growing sense of cynicism about the effectiveness of our legal system, and the very likely prospect of a major terrorist attack. All managed by an out of control Congress and a dangerously ideological new president while the rest of the world's economies circle the drain. All things considered, the future is not looking so bright.

In that light, stocking up on guns and ammunition sounds like a common sense act of prudence. It's not just for right-wing, knuckle-dragging, Bible-thumping hate-filled conservatives any more."

I exchanged a PM last night with a guy who you'd recognize on SI as one of the die hard libs. He said he's stocking up on ammo. I was really, really surprised at first, but then on reflection not so much. It's becoming pretty apparent that tough times are ahead.
