Could this ever happen here?, or to you? The answer is YES. I understand as well as all of you here, that we all share common interests. Not just guns, or blowing things up, but many topics which are valid in this day and age.
Here's my view on the situation, in the Navy they have a saying, "Loose lips sink ships". I like to think I have a fairly high level of "Situational Awareness". Always looking for an out observing peoples actions etc. In my family, we exercise what has been coined as "The circle of trust". By that I mean what happens, or is said in our family, STAYS in our family. I taught my children young, the safe handling of weapons, and thier use at the proper time. My kids know.... That it is not cool, to tell all the neighbors and friends Daddy has guns and Military training. Why?, because they tell two friends, and they tell two friends, etc. etc.
If you think about the mindset, if there is one other than ignorance of the public at large, everbody wants to tell everybody else how to live, raise your children, etc. The scary part is, all that it would take is one person hearing this information, and like the kids game of pass the secret, by the time it gets around, you will be planted firmly in the middle of your own "Ruby Ridge"... I think of this scenario often, and yes, maybe a small degree of paranoid thought enters. But look at what's going on and how easy this COULD actually happen to one of us..
As always just my two cents, and I do enjoy seeing your entire collections of weapons..... Just kidding. I really do enjoy it, however the are minimum security standards I impose, prior to even admitting in public I known what a "Black Gun", looks like.
