I just heard about this group through this video. (If this information has been posted before, I apologize. And if anyone knows about them personally, I'd love to know more.)

Finally....some earthly hope we can believe in! Please watch it...whether civilian, veteran, or LEO:

That was one heck of a good video! I am waiting for them to get the signup portion of the site online. I'll readily stand by them through thick and thin.

I took that oath in 1975. It is a lifelong commitment and I try to do what I can to honor it daily.

Thank you 4Evr. It's always good to see something encouraging.

It reinforces what I have said before about our military...generally a very patriotic bunch. I also don't believe the average person in law enforecement likes what is happening lately either, from the F.B.I. to the beat cop. Encouraging.

I've been sayin this for a while.
Our military is voluntary.
Our LEOs are voluntary.

Everyone has family.
I can't imagine any of them turning their weapons on their own families.
They are all brothers in their own ranks. A weapon drawn on anothers family is unthinkable. And just WHO is your brothers family?

So whos family is exempt?
Hopefully mine. I hope to never find out.

I don't think our government could possibly turn the military against the common folks. It would be suicide.

I could be wrong.

It's a matter of whether Obama is able to indoctrinate enough people. Is he charasmatic enough to convince people that their friends and family are the enemy? Hitler was able to by focusing on the youth, Obama and his will attempt to do the same.
