News from a disarmed nation

I'm posting this link so members can read the reports from Mexico regarding the self defense actions that have been taken in several states throughout our neighbor to the south.
Bear in mind, these are desperate measures that have come as a result of un constitutional restrictions on self defense, and lawlessness that affects not only criminals, but innocent civilians who just want to live their lives in their home towns.

There you go..........Takin' the bull by the horns.

It's the common man that will turn the tide....And give all, when there's nothing else to lose.

I told a feller one time...."I can hear gun fire in my neighborhood any
time (as a matter of fact...I can hear some right now) day or nite."

He asked, "Rough neighborhood?"

My answer, "Nope, the whole dang county is crawlin' with progressive loaders!"

Which of us, given the same circumstances, wouldn't do the same? If law and order broke down, and our friends, neighbors and family were threatened, each and every one of us would arm ourselves the match the level of the threat. That's what built our country, what sustains us, and what we're not about to give away.

I particularly like this bit, because it states that the government doesn't have exclusive right to defending the citizens, that the citizens have the right too, and ought to be supplied resources (arms and ammo) if need be, BY THE GOVERNMENT!
Can you say "Switzerland" or "Israel"?
Think along those lines when you read the second amendment, and you could see where that might have been intended by the founders too, as they actually did supply citizens with guns, ammo, and even cannon.

We are now seeing extremely dangerous activity that is separated by the shallow rio grande from Texas, (where little of this takes place). The difference is the armed citizenry. If anyone can apply this situation ( Mexico is a gun free zone, by law) to help wake those who are on the fence about the 2nd, you can view this site:
