But as far as firearm ownership goes. The millions with a ccw license are all on file. Anyone who has purchased a firearm legally is on file with the gun store. If you purchased ammo with a credit card your on file. So 95% of us are on file already.... [/quote] It's not so much "about guns". It's about fitting a certain "profile". Just by posting or viewing this website, you already fit HALF of the profile. Throw in proud firearm ownership and you are a "perfect fit". [/quote] you should look at utube sometime..... [/quote] Believe me--I have! And I'm sure the feds are all over it. [/quote] so far they're revoked on CCW permit...... [/quote] You mean it's a "banned term"? Wait--you're talking about the firearms advocate who got his CCW revoked. That's what I'm talking about. The authorities NOTICE. [/quote] crap, I can't write today. They revoked it because he made a generalized threat. [/quote] Yeah. I saw the video. His "threat" would be nothing unusual around here. That's why I made this thread. You can criticize the government. You can be armed. But put the two together and the feds have got your number. Throw in anything that could be misconstrued as "racist", and you are in the federal crosshairs. [/quote]

Let's face it--censorship is SHIT. However, SELF-censorship can and will SAVE YOUR ASS sometimes.
The way things are going with the US government trying to root out internet "extremists" (freedom-loving Americans), it's probably a good idea to practice some self-censorship when it comes to mentioning firearms, ammunition, accessories and magazines.
Look, we're ALL proud to support the 2nd Amendment. And most of us couldn't care less about what the federal government thinks of us. No one is a coward for keeping their armaments secret. Frankly, it's a good policy REGARDLESS of federal government threats to freedom. No one here has anything to prove.
It's getting to the point where the internet is shamelessly being monitored. And it's being monitored for everyday ordinary Americans who aren't satisfied with the federal government.
We're all on one "watch list" or another. But the feds are getting more aggressive. Think about your families.
One more thing:
BEWARE THE "LOUD AND PROUD" TYPES!!! Just remember how feds bust "domestic terrorists"! They fabricate the whole situation, provide the plans and the munitions and then they BUST THE POOR UNWITTING FUCKER WHO GOT WRAPPED UP IN THE GOVERNMENT-MADE PLOT.
In other words, beware of the people who say keeping quiet about your armament is an act of cowardess. Either they are morans or they are out to get you.
And if you think GLP isn't being HEAVILY MONITORED, you are WAY OFF.
Just my 2 cents.
