Concerns about the Current Situation

          With this new controversy looming around, I have heard a lot of talk as well as been asked about what “what is going to happen” or “how do you feel about this”? Truth be told, I don’t feel any particular way about it, my feelings are towards the lack of leadership that allowed this to transpire though. This is what we get, and it will ONLY get worse because we are a ‘house divided’, and anyone who knows anything, knows “a house divided, cannot stand”! Does that matter though, of course not, because everyone is going to be “right” in their own mind.

          I do believe this situation is possibly a pre-lude to something brewing though. Something that has more than likely been brewing for some time now? Regardless, I am not concerned about something like “red dawn” happening though, and though of you that are, should be ashamed of yourselves, and grow a stronger backbone. However, my biggest concern, is the “Biden Almighty” complex that out incompetent “leader” seems to have.

          Let’s break down some numbers for the year-to-date in 2021 though…

-Active Marines: approximately 186,000

-Marine Reserve: approximately 38,500

-Active Army (combat): approximately 470,000 x10%

-Army Reserve: approximately 280,000 x10%

-Navy: approximately 330,000 x7%

-Airforce: approximately 320,000 x10%

-National Guard (combat): approximately 330,000 x5%

-Coast Guard: approximately 40,000

-Police S.W.A.T: approximately <17,000 x5

-Registered Armed Citizens: approximately 331,450,281 x35%

-Non-Registered: approximately 331,450,281 x35%

For a grand total of 23,431,600 armed Americans to fight any “serious” conflict that some of you are worried about happening. That’s not to include the fact of home field advantage, air and sea superiority, geographical advantage.

          These numbers are conservative per their respective cites. The number of registered vs unregistered is more than likely some sort of federal census, so take it with a grain of salt. The information I gathered, stated that there were (rounding for simplicity) 1 million registered firearms, and 330,000,000 unregistered. If you look at these numbers on the surface, they are saying EVERY person in America owns a firearm… which, very well could be the case. I really don’t know, nor do I care. I believe every American should, with the few exceptions (violent crime offenders, mental health issues, age restrictions, etc). Some people own one, some will own several, most will own at least two.

          Now, seeing these numbers and knowing some out there are even worried about it, is surprising. I know not everyone will read this, I am hoping that those of you that do will pass it along (at least the math) and share it with others, especially if they have this concern. The greatest factor, though, isn’t how many firearms/knives/bombs or any other type of weapons we may have. It is the fortitude to use them, and the training to know how to. As with any conflict, there will be those who are “gung-ho”, then realize that they aren’t meant to fight. This is dangerous, not only for you but for those whoa re around you who are counting on your support or your protection. While courage is good, wisdom is better. There would be nothing wrong with working some sort of support role/position IF something ever WERE to happen.

          For the “leaders” of this ONCE great nation… I pray word get to you, either mine or another because I don’t care who’s it is, just that it does. This country’s courage doesn’t depend on you, but our actions do. Do not be full hearty, do not be overly confident in YOURSELF. A great leader knows their strengths and asks for help with their weaknesses. Do not be the reason this country falls. Instead, be the step towards the reason it unifies again. In the end, we won’t need you, but we will all need each other.
