๐บ๐ธ๐ 160 Years Ago, the Battle of the Wilderness
Scarce had we moved a step when General Lee, in front of the whole command, raised himself in his stirrups, uncovered his grey hairs, and with an earnest, yet anxious voice, exclaimed above the din and confusion of the hour, โTexans always move them!โ
Never before in my lifetime or since, did I ever witness such a scene as was enacted when Lee pronounced these words, with the appealing look that he gave. A yell rent the air that must have been heard for miles around, and but few eyes in that old brigade of veterans and heroes of many a bloody field was undimmed by honest, heart-felt tears.
Leonard Gee, a courier to General Gregg, and riding by my side, with tears coursing down his cheeks and yells issuing from his throat exclaimed, โI would charge hell itself for that old man.โ

โ "New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham suggests that citizens with concealed carry permits in her state โshould beโ arrested for just walking on the sidewalk.
The only person who should be arrested is Grisham.
Reporter:
โ โIf someone's got a concealed carry permit in Albuquerque walking down a public street, they're not gonna get arrested.โ
Grisham:
โ โI can make the point that they maybe they should be.โ
She went on to say that her oath to the constitution is "not absolute.โ
Shameful."

Nothing more starkly divides Americans than guns. Handing gun owners their wet dream (second only to red dawn), does nothing but energize the militant right and convert others to join them.
The firearm manufacturing base is in red states where we're already seeing companies cut off blue states from supply, including law enforcement and state agents. Blue State locals have also refused gun grabs outside of major cities.
There is a surge in first-time gun owners spurred by the common threat environment in America today. Something akin to South Africa, where the population lives in different centuries simultaneously.
Arresting peaceful Americans won't suppress them, it just creates more men with nothing left to lose.
