Don't know if it has been posted before, but, regardless, it is worth watching.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

  Well, my opinion, and that is just my interpretation,  it means that when a major agressive enemy comes marching down your street, then every able bodied man take your arms and defend you ground, push them back, and remind them why they not dare set foot on American soil, or if a domestic threat, you don't invade the peace us citizens provide for our family and neighbors. A militia is citizens defending their own, not a National Guard that is a military envoy. If they're sent overseas then who defends the homeland? A militia is ready to defend at the first Broadcasting System Alert, the national guard is not. The have to be assembled, organized, armed, etc. that may take days or even weeks. An American militia may fight naked, in underwear, or in a business suit to defend this country, because there was a reason for the creation of the term "Minutemen". Any nation that would invade with ground troops a nation of 200 million minutemen are nuts. But sometimes "nuts" are in power and that is what the 2nd Amendment means to me.

Keep in mind our founding fathers formed a militia not to fight a foreign enemy, but to fight their own government.   The lady in the film is right when she says the second amendment is about protecting ourselves from our own government.  The militia of that period was poorly trained and organized.  Most of the time they merely signed up for a single battle or for a short campaign and then returned to their families and farms until the urge again came upon them to fight another battle.  But their contribution to helping the Continental army win battles can not be denied. 

It would be like that today.  One would join in a fight in his local county but may not fight in the next county.  A present day Continental army would have to be organized to accomplish that same feat today as then.  With all the guns floating around out there that task would be just that much easier.

  Thank you for giving us this link. This lady makes very good sense and has some excellent points. I intend to send it to most of the people in my address book. I have had 2 liberal relatives recently block my emails because they didn't like my opinion. Too bad. I will likely irritate many more before I quit.
  I have recently been taking a hard look at where I stand, and what my action would be, on the gun control issues that may arise with this new administration.  I feel that one of two or more things will happen... (1) The new administration will be too busy with the economy issues to worry about new gun control at all (hopeful, but not likely). (2) They will be intellegent enough to realize that open attempts at gun control will cause too much nationwide resistance and they will just tax ammo out of reach for the common person. This may include a retroactive tax of some sort on the reloading supplies many of us already have. Very likely IMO. (3) The administration will give you the choice of turning in all weapons/ammo or becomming a felon.  There is a fourth possibility, which would be some reason to declare martial law and the law enforcement troops, whether local or federal, will just come into your house in the middle of the night and disarm you. This would be on an individual, house-to-house basis before an armed resistance could be formed and could be accomplished before the proliberal media got around putting the news out nationally.
  In all truth, I really can't say what I'd do untill the time comes. I do not favor firing on law enforcement or the U.S. Military that I now support. On the other hand, I do not believe that I could survive either prison or a consentration camp at my age. I also know that I do not make a good victim. Like many of us, I also have young children that would need even more protection in the worst case senerio. Would I be helpful to them if captive or dead? Would it matter? Like others have pointed out, firearms are not the only weapons of a resistance force and, in fact, may be the least effective. Otherwise, why would many terrorists use bombs?
  My constant prayer is that I will not have to find out and that we will be able to overcome both internal and external enemies in a peaceful manner and that our government will chose to remain rich, corrupt, and safe by leaving us alone.  God save us from sheepals, oppressors, and the rest, but keep your powder dry anyway.
