I was planting my garden today in Middle Tennessee when 3 Chinooks flew over. The thing about this was that they were solid black with no markings seen at all. Has anyone else seen or noticed these?
867 is a pretty small sampling. How were the questions phrased? Also how many of these "revolutionaries actually intend to put their butts on the line or simply read about it in the papers? Riots yes! Revolution? Don't hold your breath!Twenty-nine percent of registered voters think that an armed revolution might be necessary in the next few years in order to protect liberties, according to a Public Mind poll by Fairleigh Dickinson University.
The poll, which surveyed 863 registered voters and had a margin of error of +/-3.4, focused on both gun control and the possibility of a need for an armed revolution in the United States to protect liberty.
The survey asked whether respondents agreed, disagreed, neither agreed nor disagreed or did not know or refused to respond to the statement: "In the next few years, an armed revolution might be necessary in order to protect our liberties"
Twenty-nine percent said they agreed, 47 percent said they disagreed, 18 percent said they neither agreed nor disagreed, 5 percent said they were unsure, and 1 percent refused to respond.
Results of the poll show that those who believe a revolution might be necessary differ greatly along party lines:
• 18 percent of Democrats
• 27 percent of Independents
• 44 percent of Republicans
The poll found that 38 percent of Americans who believe a revolution might be necessary support additional gun control legislation compared to 62 percent of those who don't think an armed revolt will be needed.
Dan Cassino, a professor of political science at Fairleigh Dickinson and analyst for the poll, says:
"The differences in views of gun legislation are really a function of differences in what people believe guns are for. If you truly believe an armed revolution is possible in the near future, you need weapons and you're going to be wary about government efforts to take them away."
The poll was conducted nationally between April 22 and April 28, 2013.
Like woah dude, I read your post and then I was all like, I got my check this montha and my EBT card still works at KFC I don't need to riot man that is just out there. I am going to call up my posse on my bama phone, and go to the arab store to get some cigs now man, chill out.Since some are talking about revolution on this post, I thought I would add my thoughts. Riots are a possibility and I agree this country needs a revolution. But the revolution we need is not of violence. We need the people to stand up for their rights and to bring America back to the great nation it was and meant to be. We need to go back to morals, faith in God, love and trust of your neighbors. The last thing I want to see is violence popping up. All that does is weakens our nation and erodes the morality of the people. However if violence comes my way I will protect my family and loved ones with any force necessary.
