Charles P Pierce: The Authoritarian Operation in Portland Is Only a Dress Rehearsal

27. The 2A enthusiasts say they need guns to defend against a tyrannical government.

This looks like the exact scenario they've been talking about, so where are they? Why aren't they standing up to defend the Constitutional rights they claim to hold so dear? They're nowhere to be found. I guess it really isn't about Constitutional rights for them, it's just about the guns.

I know one thing, if unknown idiots in camo tried to grab me & put me in a van I would fight for my life with every tool I had at my disposal.

Anyone who has taken self-defense training (specifically kidnapping) or studied the statistics of survival rates of victims who ended the attack at the initial location (where the kidnapping attempt occurred) vs those who were taken to a secondary location knows that if anyone ever tries to kidnap you, you need to do everything you can to end the attempt THEN & THERE. Once the victim is "in the van" & taken to a secondary location survival rates drop dramatically.

If these morons are kidnapping people without identifying themselves & following proper arrest procedures, they are doing so at their own peril.
