7. speaking of guns and ammo and revolution..
I live in a very small town in a rather small rural county of the South.
People around here go back 5 generations or more, most own their land and homes.
Their sense of community and of belonging is deep and strong.

Of late I have been hearing the "menfolk" matter of factly talking
about their need to defend their homes, their land and their community.
With their guns.
Plural guns.
Folks around here have, at a minimum, a couple of shotguns, a few rifles,
a couple of handguns, and plenty of ammo. That is "normal" in this area.
They see trouble coming. They are not the kind to back down.

for everyone that says something like that to me, in casual conversation,
I know they are talking with at least 20 other of their friends who say the same thing.
Multiplied by 57 counties. In just ONE state.
