That is, the ones who share your values. But if they share your values, why aren't they already armed? Seems to leave a very small fraction worth arming... The rest are just destined for the great die-off.<br /><br />If you think about it, this is a good kick in the pants for all of us: live in a place where you can trust your neighbors.Paul Xnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-10727393833746625682010-03-28T18:08:49.992-05:002010-03-28T18:08:49.992-05:00Taylor H,

Russian Mossin-Nagant rifles are very affordable. I have two and several thousand rounds of ammo (total investment of under $500) specifically reserved for arming trusted neighbors if needed. <br /><br />However, I agree with the commentators who don't trust one or more of their neighbors and recognize they could be severe opsec risks. Some are crazy jerks while others are the marxist collectivist useful idiots like a late 30s white female neighbor who stated during the 2008 election that she would like to have Obama's baby.<br /><br />I have one of those "problem" crazy jerk neighbors next door BUT fortunately (prayers answered) he bought another house and is moving this week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-75298126258119191402010-03-28T08:38:24.658-05:002010-03-28T08:38:24.658-05:00Where I live, there's a better than 50% chance...Where I live, there's a better than 50% chance if I arm my neighbor, I'll end up taking one in the back. When the financial or other meltdown comes, the majority of the lemmings here in the People's Democratic Republic of Oregon will be looking to our governor, Ted the Red, to save them. True to the Castroite mentality in Salem, the hacks will initiate a Leninist policy of to each according to his needs from each according to his ability. Snitches, rats, cowards, and remoras will abound. Anyone with an SKS and a weeks supply of baked beans will be ratted off unless he/she has kept their mouth shut. My tactic will be to step back, watch, wait, and listen. I do not have the luxury of trusting my neighbors.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-46917688239215506772010-03-28T07:30:17.499-05:002010-03-28T07:30:17.499-05:00Got that covered, and there are half a dozen backh...Got that covered, and there are half a dozen backhoes in the neighborhood if any big holes need to be dug, roadblocks put up ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-47444574274817650762010-03-28T01:37:10.568-05:002010-03-28T01:37:10.568-05:00It shall be done.It shall be done.Happy Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-6794318343943930162010-03-28T00:10:34.711-05:002010-03-28T00:10:34.711-05:00In my reading, I have deduced that you are a deran...In my reading, I have deduced that you are a deranged man, and a terrible misrepresentatives of conservatives nationwide.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-4597635234777309282010-03-27T23:15:21.263-05:002010-03-27T23:15:21.263-05:00An excellent essay, but as poor as I am, my neighb...An excellent essay, but as poor as I am, my neighbors won't be able to expect a lot.
