i agree with u man ,gun violence must stop in our society

Until all are free, none will be free.

Thanks

I will be following.

Adam, you mentioned a line in sand. My line is etched in stone.  That line is military style rifles.  I will not surrender them.  This is not the UK or Australia or Europe.  My line is shared with many patriots, and by patriots I do not mean holy pole cloth lovers.  I mean people who would rather die than be disarmed.  The people I'm talking about have a country, but that country is _liberty_.

There could be a mass shooting every day, and I would still not trade liberty for security.  Even with a mass shooting every day, I will not surrender my means of resistance.  Our government knows millions of people believe the same, so what can they do to seal the prison being created around us?  How can they finally lock people in while they are still armed?  They can't.

It took 72 minutes for them to respond.  I am reminded of Columbine when they waited for an eternity.  While they hid behind fire trucks, innocent people were being gunned down by predators.  They are not going to protect us.  We have to protect ourselves.  We need private security forces, militia, and individuals to stand up to this madness.

The first American revolution started when the empire of the day moved to disarm the people and hang their leaders.  Our history books do not teach that fact however.  We are not subjects, and we will not be disarmed.  Let them try.  I refuse to depend on agents of the state to protect myself or my loved ones too. From recent to ancient history, we have ample examples of how the state won't protect us anyway.

Absolutely agree with you!  Everyday, the DC swamp creatures and the progressive left have been trying to impose new laws to restrict what’s left of our freedom.  The recent Las Vegas shooting by “a lone gunman” - Paddock, reminds me of another such incident where a Republican Senator Scalise was hospitalized and the the obvious target were conservatives.  Both Paddock and Hodgkinson carried out the fantasy of every "progressives" from Kathy Griffin and Stephen Colbert to Antifa and the college professors that indoctrinated them. They believe that simply accusing you of racism is enough to take away your civil rights and even kill you.  Clearly, these incidents were targeted at patriotic Trump supporters.

Such a man of principle, i would join you in the defense of liberty ANY day. Thanks for everything you have done man

Most guns wouldn't have helped those at that concern in Vegas. I wrote about <a href="https://steemit.com/guns/@lukestokes/which-do-you-value-more-freedom-or-the-wellbeing-freedom-brings">the many problems the U.S. has with guns</a> and would love your opinion if you have the time and interest to check it out. For me, an important question is: do we value freedom more than the well-being it brings us?

**thats true! every life is valuable**

Love this!!! Nice article, the idea of true freedom is both inspiring and contagious! :)

Much respect Adam!! I've been really inspired by your videos the past months and by your REAL, authentic expression of the Sacred Masculine Energy. Our Divine right to defend ourselves from VIOLENCE--the self defense principle. The sacred masculine energy of will-power and true courage CAN NOT be stamped out everywhere!! After much, much contemplation of whether to "run for the hills"= flee OR stay and fight this multifaceted monster run by psychopaths ; I have made an spiritual-internal decision to  organize with the others and resist. We need to confront this evil entity that is known generally as "government". I will be here for the Final American Revolution. I will NOT go silently into the dark night of totalitarianism AND within my personal interactions with people within my day to day life. If the powers that SHOULD NOT be kill me during this incarnation of Life.....then I'll be back for the next one:) They can't kill our Spirit. Much Love man and will be following!
