Would you?
Could you?
Do you dare?
On the anniversary of "the shot heard 'round the world. . .
What if? What if a march were planned? What if the march was on Washington D.C.? Would you attend? Would you take a personal day from work? Would you take vacation? Would you do whatever it takes to go?
There was talk of a 10 millon man march on D.C. That many people would not fit on the mall... 2.7 million would, if every one stood stock still.
I don't think there are enough people who believe in their 2 A right enough to swear an oath to show up.
If you couldn't get 2+ mm to show for a peaceful demonstration, how can some of us even chatter about a coming revolution/rebellion/conflict?
How about this? Would anyone commit to firing one blank cartridge into the air, outside, at about 6:12 a.m. on April 19th, 2013?
Why? It's the anniversary of "the shot heard 'round the world." The beginning of the war for our independence.
Is it illegal to fire a blank? How about a cap gun (might still be able to own one of THOSE by then)?
If every gun owner in America would do that on that day, at that time, would it be "heard?"
Would enough shots be fired that every one, every where in this country would hear it... And know how important that sound was... And IS?
FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
