“The List”
Violent insurgencies worldwide have always carefully collected names and addresses of the “counter-revolutionaries.”
These names include the military (particularly the Spc Op Community), media, police, political officials and their families, and “reactionaries,” who have a history of boldly speaking out against Communism, socialism, and religious feudalism.
“The List” is carefully maintained, edited by the day, and is never cast away.
In the City of Hue, Vietnam, during the 1968 Tet Offensive, Viet Cong and NVA forces briefly took over the city.
During their short occupation (four weeks), Communists (consulting their “List”) promptly went to specific addresses, broke into the homes of people on “The List,” and then systematically murdered them and their entire families.
There were a few brief “show trials,” but most residents of “The List” were hunted down and murdered the instant they were discovered.
Some were abducted and subsequently murdered, but most were murdered on the spot via gunfire, being burned alive, being buried alive, or being clubbed to death. Many were sexually battered and otherwise cruelly tortured prior to being murdered.
Numbers thus massacred will never be known, but surely include many thousands, including a good number of children and infants.
Of course, Hue massacre victims were unarmed, via government edict!
The 7 Oct 2023 Hamas attack/massacre in Israel was more sudden and not as specific, but the results and methods were eerily similar.
Once more, unarmed victims make massacres easy. World history, going back thousands of years, is replete with examples.
It makes one wonder if we should ever trust politicians, who themselves remain heavily protected by armed bodyguards, but who, in the same breath, self-righteously decree that we “ordinary” citizens are too stupid to own guns!
With our nation currently awash with illegal aliens (by design), including many military-age males, I wonder if we will have long to wait for a planned and well-coordinated Hamas-style attack somewhere within CONUS, likely on a specific community, maybe even within one of our military bases.
Is our population robust, armed, trained, determined, and principled enough to effectively repel it?
Some of us surely are!
But most (particularly our “unarmed forces”), probably not!

It is happening now. Two illegal Jordanians attempted to drive a box truck onto Marine Corp Base Quantico, recently. It was a dry run and they were stopped by security deploying measures to prevent them from entering as they ran the gate. One was in the country illegally as his visa expired. And the other illeagally crossed our southern border days before the incident.
well then. maybe the prudent thing to do would be let these terrorists have their way with the unarmed population and then the armed population take the terrorists down.

Me too! Jefferson is correct again!
The comparison of commie run ‘Nam to Israel is flawed. Israel is a democracy, and the people freely chose to be disarmed and helpless. Israeli men & women must serve at least two years in the armed forces, then they gleefully turned in their guns, returned to civilian life, and placed their security in the hands of others. For a civilian to get a gun, the process was roughly equivalent to New York. This is how “Never Again!!!” after the WWII Holocaust became “Never Again!!! This time we REALLY mean it!”
freedom is scary and dangerous but worth defending and dying for to preserve. there will probably come a time very soon where drastic measures are necessary to maintain our freedom and the fight will never end because there many who do not like freedom or free men.
defend yourselves and loved ones as much as humanly possible preferably with firearms and then with whatever you have available.
stay armed and dangerous.
It’s only a matter of time.
