The War has just begun!

"" The "WHATEVER IT TAKES!" part tends to get people a little nervous. ""
They deserve to be nervous. But I have to admit that I lifted the phrase from a huge Multi-level Marketing regime that passed through the midwest some years ago. Of course, the guys at the top got big recruiting money off the top of each new enlistee. So the guilt-trip was thus: "If your children and spouse were behind the door of a burning house, would you do 'the best you could', or would you do 'WHATEVER it takes' to save them? So, sign up somebody!" I was laying it on the line, like some do (Charleton Heston for one) "...when they take it from my cold, dead hands!" And that's just how I feel. If I must die at the hands of my own Gubbmint, I want to be ringed about with lots of cold black-shirted bodies. But I will leave none of my compatriots behind, not even "little-'d' Democrats." There is certainly room for your opinions here, bro. Selah.

But here's a plan that really works: sign up with the org. you hate, and send in $5.00. That gets you placed on their mailing-list. Every time you get their letters, they have spent postage-money and labor for a fruitless effort. You'll soon use up your donation with a lot to spare, plus you'll know what their efforts are leading to. "Infiltrate / annihilate" are good tactics. The State Department didn't spend thousands of bucks teaching me and several thousand others how to speak Chinese and Viet Namese so that we could BECOME communists, but so we could destroy a few. (We were winning when I left.) We can preserve RKBA, each one doing his part, feeding his favorite gorilla.

I can certainly understand the "from my cold dead hands" sentiment.
My philosophy is always to prepare for the worst, but avoid it at all reasonable costs. The perception on the "anti" side is that we're all crazies preparing for war or some nonsense. Certainly not trying to censor anyone - I just know what they're reaction to phrases like that tends to be (and it makes most of us bang our heads on our desks).
