Gotcha

I really need to get to a range

I think a lot of people here are just on a very simplistic level of thinking about...9/10 of this

Distance negates skill, so I would rather start my engagement in a way that I can control and shape the battlespace before my enemy is even capable of returning accurate fire, if possible.

Correct

"the master of defense is he who is never in the place that is attacked"

And such like

Nobody who's like "we should go pick that fight" is reading Sun Tzu

I enjoy sun tzu but I try to speak in more practical 21st century terms haha

Well that quote was the Jedi Knight Vergere :p

Whatever hahaha

Same shit though. Same ideas

You win wars by not having straight fights

I had a bunch of tracers i took to a local night shoot with some friends and it was in a thickly wooded little spot it was more overgrown than we though. Sometimes the tracers would hit things and take a sharp turn and go way off target.

Late to the conversation

Knowledge is just as dangerous as a gun

So <@&704861045386117220>, whats it gonna be

Now or never

@BugsyBaldwin fact

Just got done with Landmark Thucydides. Good read.

Yeah it's really good

I have read it through a few times

I have Xenophons march of the 10,000 also

I read all of the like, War college level books about Vietnam and the Phillipines on my last deployment

Machiavelli's the prince is good to

I also like Thomas Paine's work

The prince is very good

@Copbot1001

For now, we wait

All it takes is one man holed up refusing to surrender

But statistics show that "I'll keep my guns" is often a lie

I vaguely disagree with both. No one will turn in shit, and then they’ll quietly imprison people for their entire lives for possessing a piece of metal, just like in the US.

In Canada they will have a majority comply with the prohibition and there will be a large minority that will resist but after a few get killed or jailed kost of the rest will fold

Or that. They won't send people door to door, they know what will happen

They have how to control you while convincing you you're in charge down to a science

In the west

Same thing as here. When you call EMS cause your grandma had a heart attack, someone will see your “illegal” gun, and then you’ll be dragged away to suffer for your ‘crimes’. The exact same thing LE here does

We lost our revolutionary spirit after all the failed rebellions in the mid to later 1800's

We only need to delay it by 18 months with court challenges to take us to the next federal election
