Real world right there.
If there's a record of it, they know and will come looking for it eventually.
Thanks.

If people have learned anything from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq is that the American military is obsolete when it comes to urban fighting.
You can pour as much money as you want in tanks, weapons, and defense but those things are useless when it comes to IED's or car bombs. IED's costs less than $100 to make and can cause some serious damage.
The US has failed miserably because they didn't know their enemy.
If they implement any tactics at home they still won't know who their enemy is because they blend in to society. The 20th century military is useless in the 21st.

100% incorrect
This kind of advice gets people killed
Your typical American gun owner is overweight with a multitude of health problems.
Afghani freedom fighters they are not
Best thing to do, is to hand in your guns when asked.
If you barricade your house the military will use mortar fire and you will die
If you hide your cache in the woods the military will find it and charge you with a very serious crime
If you build a bomb in your garage you will end up killing yourself
There is little that can be done against the modern day United States military and government by the patriotic average gun owner

Obamacare, your whole medical record on computer. Crazy people can't own guns. Have you ever been prescribed a psych drug? Anti-depressant? Anti-anxiety pill? Sleeping pill?
You can't be trusted to own a firearm.
What is the percentage of the american population that willingly takes all this candy the dr. gives them?
