Thank you for a wonderfully concise definit...Rob; <br />Thank you for a wonderfully concise definition of prags and threepers. I had no idea. And, your comment on the infowars post is right on as well. My husband has been saying for years that all of the things going on in our government are not conspiracies - they are happening right out in the open - and we are letting them! Unfortunately, most people are sleeping and sometimes it take an Alex Jones to wake them up. Thanks for your input.<br /><br />Enola GayEnola Gayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12719123975236426938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-55887076472512351722010-08-01T13:23:41.263-07:002010-08-01T13:23:41.263-07:00Threepers are part of the 2A, RKBA, gun community....Threepers are part of the 2A, RKBA, gun community.<br /><br />Of those who are assertive about protecting the second ammendment, there are basically two groups. My understanding is not perfect on this, but then the definitions are fluid - as these are not formal groups.<br /><br />The two groups are:<br />Prags - short for Pragmatists<br />and<br />Threepers - Loosely this the 3% of the community that has a VERY strong line in the sand regarding freedom and WILL use arms to defend it.<br /><br />The Prags are, well, pragmatic. They work within the system to regain that which we have been losing for about 80 years. They believe that they can convince the populace and the politicians of the rightness of their case. The Threepers tend to believe "otherwise" they see the Prags as lazy, not commited to the cause or simply mistaken. Threepers see the government as absolutely the enemy and probably beyond redemption. The Prags see the Threepers as hot-heads, a threat or giving cover to those who would ban guns saying, "see there are violent, bad people with guns!"<br /><br />The real questions are these: <br />-What will happen when push comes to shove (if it does). Will the Prags join the Threepers at the barricades, or will they meekly hand over their weapons to their new masters. <br />-Conversely will the Threepers hold their fire until there simply is no alternative.<br /><br />It is a judgement call. Each of us much search our hearts, clear our thinking and most of importantly - seek God's council.Robnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-50194772163341012032010-08-01T04:53:07.420-07:002010-08-01T04:53:07.420-07:00What is a Threeper?What is a Threeper?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-42678588093827959782010-07-31T16:43:48.901-07:002010-07-31T16:43:48.901-07:00Dear Anonymous;

The writer was ahead of the curve. At least some were paying close attention.

He has taught his children the value of freedom and the same lessons.<br /><br />In directing this to Peace Officers, the back handed compliments are overshadowed by the insults at the end. <br /><br />A real Peace Officer wouldn't do those things that the Author fears, Period. (And not because he is afraid of the Author it's because of his integrity)<br /><br />The writer would be far more on track directing those comments toward the real tyrants in congress.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-17780716524036747662010-07-30T07:50:40.809-07:002010-07-30T07:50:40.809-07:00The federal government just passed a law (this wee...The federal government just passed a law (this week) that says the FBI can demand, from any employer, records of internet activity, including emails and browsing histories. They need no court order nor subpeona. All an agent needs before making the demand is a sense that something or someone may be a threat to national security.<br /><br />Now, harken back up to April 2009 when Janet Napolitano (Secretary, Department of Homeland Security) concluded that our veterans, rightwingers and other patriotic American citizens pose the greatest potential threat to national security. <br /><br />So, put the two together - what have you got? An excuse to hassle people who don't agree with the administration. <br /><br />I don't want to shoot anybody. But...as John Wayne said in The Shootist (movie), "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on." <br /><br />NoCal GalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-88031543734230598632010-07-30T00:58:58.836-07:002010-07-30T00:58:58.836-07:00I live down the Texas Gulf Coast.

Recently some local leaders were talking about "Hurricane Prepardness" and about police going into area's where drugs and guns are a "problem" after a hurricane. <br /><br />What if your a property owner and a lawful gun owner in such an area?. Will I have to surrounder my second amendment right when I need it the most????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
