The memory of a militia member, telling me that they are just waiting for the word to come from their leaders, telling them it is time to put their guns to use, comes to mind. I thought it ominous when he said this maybe seven years ago. I think it more so now.
There are gun activists who are no more than people who love the Second Amendment. Then, there are those who notch it up a little, who not only believe the gun is necessary to keep America free, but who anxiously await the day when they can use their guns to protect their freedom. Some who join the militias, have been training for this very day.
So, is this the day, for many of them? Is this the moment, in their estimation, that they have been waiting for, preparing for? We may not know, but time and tide will tell, and it may be but another six days before we find out.
