That is a little stiff. I know dozens of PSP Troopers and most would not support what fast eddie said. Rather, I think it is the mentality that permeates LE that only the State or Government has the authority to go about armed. Actually, this is the same mentality that permeates the sheeple. Self sufficiency and rugged individualism is gone.

Many will have rough times ahead.

Be safe.

Your incident + Mine + PA Patriots makes it seem like someone somewhere has given word to crack down.

I think that we need a group lawyer on retainer.

I,too, am starting to detect a pattern. I suppose when Heller comes out and some of the recent events experienced by our members start heading to court, perhaps the law will be clearer to the same LEOs we pay to enforce it.

The main problem is that afaik PAFOA is more an unofficial group. There are no dues and thus no money for a lawyer on retainer. IMO what we should do is continue what we've been doing, and doing admirably. If one of us is in trouble, the rest raise hell and money .

I do think we should attempt to organize more events of a political nature. We need more rallies, phone/letter campaigns, and informed individuals. Bring more people shooting, talk about it more openly, and assert your rights.

I honestly believe I was singled out because I'm so open about my rights, beliefs, and hobby; I hope that if we all stand up and declare our rights daily, not only through major incidents, people will begin to realize that we're just good people with an exciting hobby.

Mrs. Pa.Patriot and myself were talking about OC/LEO incidents last night.
I said: "Headcase is next".

True story.

Now, let this serve as a warning to all those in denial; When the Godfather speaks ......

Ok, The serious comment:
I have no serious comment at this time as I already said everything I needed to on the phone with headcase

Stay tuned, folks.
