yup............unfortunately the damage to this once great Republic has already happened and it would take a massive change in thinking and action on a majority of the populace. There is way to many sheep that will follow what ever is popular on TV and believe everything they are told.Quote:

But I see he never provided a source to his assertion that teaching paramilitary training is illegal per Colorado statutes. But he "knows" it's there. That's good enough for me.

After reading this article there seems to be a fine line here. Intent I would choose as a key word. A lot of what there were doing are things I would bet a lot of us do.
"The group was making body armor and sniper suits and stocking up on supplies in preparation"
How many here have a watched Magpul videos, own a gillie suit, body armor and have supplies ready for the end of days? Hell I bet any one of us could be twisted by the media and police to appear just a crazy as these nut jobs.
About being taught "tactics" every class I've taken it has been mentioned that it was a weapons manipulation class and not a tactics class. So much so that I have wondered why they go out of their way to say it.
Gunsite has many civilian classes teaching team tactics as well as multiple classes that spend time in the shoot house and force-on-force tactical training for pistol, carbine, rifle and shotgun.Quote:

I suppose their free training vouchers should come in the mail with thier food stamps too. Just because you consume oxygen doesn't mean you're entitled to have everything GIVEN to you. Some things you have to earn.
