RE: 'Sovereign Citizens.' Seriously?
Well, over here if you are on a hunting trip, your gear must be safely unloaded in a case, well, until you get to the hunting grounds.

True story -- I once heard a self described " Freeman" complain about the mail carrier being a jack boot thug ( something like that - I don't remember the wording after the ensuing laughing fit) -for being late with his SSI check......

Same here.  Hunting is popular, but you aren't permitted to transport a loaded gun.

I was in LA County when the road rage shootings started. People didn't seem to get more polite. Doh

You could have solved that by having the cops loan every driver an Uzi. 

Come on, I can't do ALL the thinking around here...

A good friend of mine was in Beruit in 1983 (helping set up the new embassy).

Everyone was carrying. 

He said that people WERE very polite.

Was this the first embassy that got car-bombed or the second one?  You know, before or after the Marine barracks bombing?

Beirut really isn't how you want to make your case.

It was the one with the Marine barracks bombing.

My buddy was a state dept tech weenie. He went over to set up the secure comms system in the new embassy.

He's got a nice souvenir from there - a chunk of concrete with shrapnel through it. Probably a piece of roof.
