Laura......
I agree....I find no Right to own Military Vehicles....in the Bill of
Rights.............but I do see one giving the Right to Keep and Bear
Arms........to the PEOPLE.....you and me!.......
How many of you will fight for that right....?....or sit idly by, while
your rights are slowly whittled away....one by one.......then finding it is
too late.
I would think there are few who would lay it all down to defend it...
gee......I wonder what the majority thought of Jefferson and Washington,
and Adams........as the Revolutionary War was about to
unfold.......Unpopular??? Possibly? A small minority fought it.....while
the majority sat it out...sympathizing with the King.................

just my rant..................
