I was at Waco when it burned. Took a couple of lads down to the Gulf coast from St. Mary's KS where I was living at the time and we passed it on the way back. Watched it burn from the highway.

How did we let it get this far? Heck, peasants revolted in England once upon a time. And the peasants here, armed with rust, starving, drove out Rule Britannia!

You would be surprised what many in the survivalist movement have stockpiled. Many are former military and have a knowledge of comm. weapons, and tactics. Not to mention motivation. Never heard of a microwave gun. Sounds cool.

Your being naive if you think so.
