I watched President Obama tonight, heard what he had to say about confronting terrorism and I didn’t find his words encouraging at all. I know our military will do the right thing and will do the right thing to protect us. But as far as the homeland goes in the United States of America, he has no effective plan apparently. So what I’m asking all my citizens to do, all my law-abiding citizens, I’m asking you to help me and our fellow law enforcement officers by arming yourselves. I want you to get a carry permit. I want you to learn how to use your weapon properly, safely…and I am calling on every able bodied person that is of legal age to do so. As law enforcement, we can’t protect every single one of you; we can’t be there all the time, we can’t be everywhere all the time, especially in rural areas where we have limited resources. So as such I am encouraging you, strongly, to arm yourselves.”

WE have head LE officers now warning Obama and the left that attempted gun confiscation will result in revolution.
That talk used to be confined to fringe militias back in the Clinton days, not it is entering the public media and mainstream thinking.
Time change, don’t they?
Sorta like an old Dylan song.

Those are some big holes; was that a 50 gauge shotgun?

“50 gauge shotgun”
Following standard practices, a “50 gauge shotgun” would actually be a tiny little thing, around the size of a .410 bore or even smaller. A big-ass shotgun would be an 8 gauge or lower number. (N.B. anything below 10ga is not normally safe to shoulder fire and would generally be a “punt gun” as used in the 19th century for commercial bird harvesting.)

Persnickety,
Or a Blunderbuss (usually 2 or 4 gauge in their day).
(FWIW, a 50 gauge would actually be about a .20 caliber.)
That’s what da gooberment wants you to think the inside of Sandy Hook looked like!
Message of the day and from law enforcement no less. Arm yourselves because in the event of TEOTWAWKI you are own your frikkin’ own.

12 gauge with slug ammo.
I want a set of those tires.
