    For that reason, they should not be prohibited from doing what they’re planning to do. Our response should be awareness; BLM is not to be trusted, so monitor the situation between yellow and orange.

    Yes Sir. We are on the same side. I lived in the Philippines from the beginning of martial law until the end. I know what it's like for one side to have all the power. Never again.

    My understanding is that ANTIFA(mostly white) and BLM ( mostly black) are speaking explicitly in terms that promote violence. They have moved from one degree or other from theory to practice.

    I agree completely.

    And on a similar note, the war on drugs. Inextricably linked to the war on the 2nd Amendment among other freedoms, but devotees are willing to destroy the Constitution and Bill of Rights to keep doing something that never has lived up to claimed goals in the first place.

    If any campaign has the title of "the War on..." it's going to be long and futile, and is going to result in a lot of people getting their rights taken away.

    I wish they would declare a war on my bank account. Certainly, it would flourish.

    Your situation wouldn't improve, but someone else's would.

    Depending on the range/State/city/county/whatever. Personally, I've been shooting since 1998 and never met or seen a "range master". Even the indoor ranges have counter people and sales people but not "range masters" or any range policing
