Mark my words gentlemen, NOTHING good will come of all of this, actually quite the contrary.  We are now on the fast track to a substantial clash(es) of varying degrees.  And those that are coming into power have not even begun pushing their agenda, not to mention elements within who wish to push their vile retribution against those who do not share their ideology.  It’s gonna get bad guys, the likes of which none of us have seen, save in history books.

I agree, totally.

Look at the way that similar behavior is portrayed differently, depending on which side is involved. One group described as "insurrectionists" and hunted down by every three letter agency there is...while others are merely "protesters", who if they are even arrested, the charges are often later dropped because "this is a special time", etc.

But the thing I noticed is that it didnt take long before gun owners were among those blamed for recent events. How that applies hardly seems to matter, some will simply make the assertion anyway.

I better stop there, if I havent said too much already.

The narrative is always the same with these people. After the 1995 Oklahoma city bombing the NRA and gun owners got blamed for that as well. They screamed for more restrictions and monitoring of people buying gun powder yet there wasn't a single grain of gun powder involved in that and it had nothing to do with guns.

There are many reasons this is one of my favorite shirts. You all have mentioned some of those reasons.

GoDaddy nuked ar15.com, the largest gun board in the world, and they had to crawl back online at ar15-backup.com. GoDaddy, a serve we USED to use, accused Arf of doing illegal activities. I doubt it. However, it should be noted Facebook nuked CZ-USA home page and Dan Wesson home page so the admins cannot even access it. Drifting aimlessly. Get offline contact info for CZF'ers in your area if you can. I cannot guarantee this site will remain online for any length of time. Insert dramatic music and fade to black here... :P

It is not going to be easy or pretty but this information could be moved to GAB. It won't be deplatformed there.

We must keep our posts under that radar level...chaps my hide to have to say so but this is the last online bastion of CZ. Cue dramatic music and heroic close-up.

It doesn't have to be.

At this time things have somewhat stabilized, AR15 is fully back on line, Parler is set to come back up. MeWe is an interesting site and Gab is online, but we have no presence there. The Facebook page for this forum is still unmolested as of this morning. My YouTube channel also remains online. We shall see where this goes from here.

You may want to create a MeWe page, to reserve it. Just don't go public with it until you're ready to.

We were all put on notice the first time “see something, say something” was uttered months ago.

Thank you armoredman for maintaining this site. I know it's a labor of love and I want you to know how much I appreciate it. FB and YT are not our friends but you already know that.

Don't be too sure.

Hint: Who's the country's biggest ISP? Do you know who owns and controls it? Do you use their services? Are you sure about that?

Do you even have a choice?

On 3 different so called mainstream media programs I've heard the notion floated that "those people" need to be deprogrammed. All I can do is think of all those old timers when I was younger who always said "that'll never happen" we have the constitution. Uh huh 1984 any body.

My old man keeps saying I’m being alarmist and this has happened throughout history all the time; that its all talk and hype. Being that he’s on the “correct” political faction right now he doesn’t understand what’s going on, and that it’s gonna come for him as well eventually. Some people can’t be told and unfortunately they must be shown.

I always thought my old man was the alarmist. Now I know better.

It is a simple fact that no matter what is going on, someone will try and assert that everything is relative and current events are no different than events in the past. I really think it's a knee-jerk reaction for some, for others its a way of quietly shouting down whatever they dont want to hear or dont agree with.

But for others, I think it's a way of just trying to pretend that everything is all right, or will be okay in the end. Kind of a frog-in-the-boiling-water thing.

Also, closing topics has worked great for the former.
