    Molon Labe is the Army SOCCENT motto, it was the motto or slogan used for the Texas Revolution, and I'm pretty sure its on the Greek military uniform as well. So regardless of your interpretation of it, you are wrong.

    It is a defiant, rebellious, violence inciting motto. I have nothing against it, I have t-shirts that say it as well as other things, but you are a hypocrite.
    Defiant? Yes. Rebellious? Yes. Violence inciting?

    Keep digging your hole...the more you try and justify your hatred of Badger the more I imagine you sound like an adult from Charlie Brown.

    I said "literally" because it refers to the actual event that I'm going to hold my ground, should someone decided to try to "come and take [my guns]". (As a side note, I used the word "literally" absolutely literally, in the true sense of the word. Of course it is "loosely translated"... there is no exact translation from Greek to English.) This is exactly what King Leonidas was rumored to have said and meant at the battle of Thermopylae (the actual event, not the fictional story depicted in the movie 300). When the aggressor Xerxes allegedly demanded the Spartans' surrender, King Leonidas replied (again, allegedly) that Xerxes would have to come and take their weapons because they were going to stand their ground. This is exactly what I mean in my sig. I do not mean, in any way, that I'm going to start a violent revolution. Certainly King Leonidas was not intending to start a violent revolution either. He said he would stand his ground and not surrender. I think it is a good philosophy, so I put it in my sig. Unless you have something intelligent to add to this, please do not respond. I was an English major with a minor in Military History.





    ..And now, back to your regularly scheduled thread about Jim being sick of everyone "fuken whining"!
    I might have reading comprehension issues. After all, I'm not an English major like you. Just a history major.

    If a policing force, armed combatant, or military force tells you to put down your weapons, and you reply with "COME AND TAKE THEM!"..... that will not incite violence? Get the fuck out of here.

    Obvious troll is obvious.
