This is just the kind of stuff that ties us in with the miac report. Have guns? Fine. Call them Ron Paul Rifles and post pictures of yourself with them? Not so much.

Remember:
You cannot carry all of the ammo. I know people who tried and some of them had to be carried out of the field.
The ammo should be carefully dispered around the AO in "battle loads".
Yes a few people thousands of rounds is nice, but if everybody just had a few hundred but could make every one of them count that would be nicer. Only a force backed by fiat money and income through coercion can "yank and crank" and blow off a lot of ammo without discretion. If you have 5000 rounds you might carry up to 1000 of them at once, but perhaps you should give 300 of them to someone who has none, AFTER they get their Rifleman patch from Appleseed and thus shown they know how to make every round count.
That's what we call "force multiplication". One man with a large cache of ammo who cannot shoot well is just a lot of ammo to be lost or left useless. Learn how to use yours, and learn to share it with the condition that those with whome you share it learn how to use it.

I knew it was only a matter of time before this would come up in this thread. LLS there is nothing ILLEGAL with owning weapons.
The trouble with the MIAC report would be the attempt to link legal gun ownership with terrorists.
Should we quit carrying copies of the Constitution so we are not linked that way also?
My CMP Garand with scout scope set up. Weaver lever lock rings allow it to pop off in seconds if I need to use the iron sights.

Sounds like you have been brainwashed by the anti-gun folks and believe the propaganda of the MIAC report.
Owning and carrying weapons is enshrined in the constitution. Owning and carrying weapons is recommended by the founders.
Supporting political candidates and parties is guaranteed by the constitution.
Owning and carrying guns while supporting political candidates is an ok thing and was expected behavior by the founders.
If thoughts of that make you cringe then you should read into why the founders put the 2a in the Constitution. It isn't for duck hunting, it is for protection from tyranical government... You know, the kind that demonizes innocent groups through vague associations and profiling via slick propaganda and disinformation and through that places them in danger of physical harm or incarceration?
A typical Ron Paul event will have citizens within arm's reach of Dr. Paul carrying openly and concealed. Does he look concerned? He probably feels well protected.

The day we become afraid of government "reports" to the point where we hide our guns and shut our mouths (so as not to give them more "ammunition" against is), is the day liberty dies. Yielding to intimidation does not advance the cause of freedom.
Government "reports" such as the one in Missouri should inspire more posts (aka pictures of ourselves... armed) on this thread.

Great posting people!
After an hour perusing everyone's fine Liberty Teeth in this year-long thread (may it never die!), I would be remiss if I were to not add the following photo:
That is me with my PRE-BAN AR15SP1 that I bought in 1979 when I got out of the Army, with 100-round drum and bayonet affixed! The note on the buttstock says "This rifle - like Ron Paul - IS NOT FOR SALE!" The picture was taken at a Crossroads of the West Gunshow in Phoenix in September of 2007 when we were campaigning for Ron Paul. All firearms pictured on the table belong to me, and I still have them all to this day - and plenty of ammo for each one. Why? To fullfill my responsibilities to my God, myself, my Family, and my Country - to safeguard them from ALL ENEMIES - FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC. And guess what? The gubment were the ones who trained me as an EXPERT! Idn't dat nice?
For those worrying about being profiled from these posts - not only am I NOT afraid of being branded, invaded, or being 'put on a list', I held an ENTAC-type Secret Security Clearance when in the Army, and they have every bit of information about me in lots of files, and we both know it. There's the rub. Look at this one site:
http://www.meetup.com/Ron-Paul-and-his-Campaign-for-Liberty-R3VOLUTION/photos/
Literally THOUSANDS of photos of my actions for the last few years of attempting to do 'the right thing, for the right reasons'. All NON-VIOLENTLY! I have possessed ALL of these firearms the whole time and never did one thing bad or wrong or threatening to anyone the whole time! I AM NOT A TERRORIST, I AM THE TERRORISED!
Profiling works both ways!
LISTEN EVERYONE! I don't care if you have to go hungry for a few days - MAKE SACRIFICES and purchase a firearm and ammunition AS SOON AS POSSIBLE and if you don't know how to use it GET WITH THE PROGRAM and get the information you NEED to be able to defend yourself and/or your loved ones. These words may save your LIFE someday!
