Gun clubs. My husband was a tactical sharp shooter in the Italian Special Forces and he's helping. I taught her how to use her Savage 22. She didn't grow up with us so she dodged hunting and field dressing and survival training in Watertown and the Adirondacks. I'm jealous.

My dad was in the 1st class of Green Berets so I was raised to withstand and survive a
Russian or Chinese invasion.

I'm in a very red county in NJ. Elected official and Democratic Committee member. I've had racist violent screeds dropped in the mail slot of my front door prior to our cameras being set up, and regularly receive hate mail in my Council email. After the assassinations and attempted assassination in Minnesota a few weeks ago - I am hyper alert.

I don't think white leftists are TRULY understanding the danger Black Americans are in.

So let them worry about Oligarchs.

Us? It's the Red Summer (1919) until the Regime falls.
