Great story. Besides the 2nd amendment message for us, it has a moral that recalls a time before the federal government became tyrants.

Back then there were towns and counties ruled by local tyrannies. But they were relatively easy to fight and take down, and people could move to the next town. But when the U.S. federal government becomes a tyranny, it's much, much worse.

"The very definition of tyranny is when all powers are gathered under one place."

James Madison, Federalist Paper No. 47 (1788)

Yes, unfortunately.

This powerful story reads like it has been written this week. True, we may have a bigger Goliath to slay, but we also have the power to do so, with a unified citizenry who are willing to fight the massive tyranny. Even as smaller groups scattered across various states, we are unified in purpose and that purpose is righteous and noble - the salvation of this historically great country and the preservation of humanity. Excellent article!
