Default Food for thought or a call to arms???

Food for thought, or maybe a call to arms . . . .

Suppose a militant group prone to and advocating civil disturbance, violence, looting and destruction were to find a target for their next insurrection. An area or community let’s say that was nearly 100% White. Maybe located in the “Racist South”. One where “Privilege” was on display and throw in a population made up of apparently old, weak and defenseless individuals.

Might sound like an easy target for ANTIFA, BLM, or another movement looking for attention to their oppressed existence in this racist Country. It might also sound like someone or some place you are familiar with too.

Food for thought or a call to arms . . . . . remember, it wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.

If your considering here in the Villages would think too many people here have firearms and know how to use them.

It's a fairly conservative place. They may want to research a more soft target.

Agreed but situational awareness is always a good idea. I've thought about the very same thing, honestly don't know why it hasn't happened yet.

I would worry more about White Naturalists who pretend to be antifa or another group. A lot of them in Florida

Just stock up on "claymore" simulated models & put them around your house-

People would have to be nuts to try any planned attack here--they're totally outgunned, lots of retired LEO's & military here

I had one with a brush on top for my shoes at the front door. Only a few understood what it was. lol

Last night I was trying to put myself in another’s shoes.

The shoes I tried on were worn with a blue shirt with a badge on it.

I thought about how demoralizing and bizarrely upside-down it must feel to have the ‘Big guys’ Like the Mayor or the Governor tell you to

arrest people who are trying to earn a living like shop owners & other people who aren’t wearing masks or staying 6 feet apart

AND then be told by those same decision makers

to stand-down & watch rioters & looters who are stealIng & destroying & endangering the future of entire communities, if not the nation

Crazy.

Gave me a whole new insight into their job requirements.

It not about race, the way things are going, its about criminals trying to use the guise of social & historical justice as a cover for criminality-there are plenty of retired villagers of color who have served in the military or were LEO's --I'm willing to bet they too will do "the right thing" if push comes to shove

loved the admonition the Sheriff of Polk county gave rioters when they threatened to loot the suburban areas in his county.
