Worlds largest army

Got this via email ....interesting. Anyone know if this is true or not?

---------------------------------------------------------

Woo-hoo!****

** **

** **

Largest Armies****

** **

** **

** **

*True story and most people will never know it. *****

** **

* Here's an interesting side bar. *****

** **

*After the Japanese decimated our fleet in Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941, *****

*They could have sent their troop ships and carriers directly to
California ****

*****

*To finish what they started. *****

*The prediction from our Chief of Staff was we would not be able to stop a *****

*Massive invasion until they reached the Mississippi River . *****

*Remember, we had a 2 million man army and war ships.... *****

*All fighting the Germans. *****

** **

*So, why did they not invade? *****

** **

* After the war, the remaining Japanese generals and admirals were asked ****

that question. *****

*Their answer.... *****

*They know that almost every home had guns and the Americans knew how
to use ****

them.. *****

** **

*The world's largest army.... America 's hunters! *****

*I had never thought about this.... *****

** **

** **

*A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of
states and ****

*****

*Arrived at a striking conclusion: *****

** **

** **

*There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin .. ****

*****

*Allow me to restate that number. *****

*Over the last several months, Wisconsin 's hunters became the eighth *****

*Largest army in the world. *****

** **

*More men under arms than in Iran .. *****

** **

*More than in France and Germany combined. *****

** **

*These men deployed to the woods of a single American state to hunt *****

*With firearms, and no one was killed. *****

** **

*That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of *****

*Pennsylvania** and Michigan 's 700,000 hunters All of whom have now ****

returned home. *****

** **

*Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally *****

*Establishes the fact that the hunters of those _four states _alone *****

*Would comprise the largest army in the world. *****

** **

* The point? *****

** **

*America** will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that kind of ****

home-grown firepower. *****

*Hunting -- it's not just a way to fill the freezer. **It's a matter of ****

national security.** *****

* *****

** **

*That's why all enemies, foreign and domestic, **want to see us ****

disarmed.** *****

* *****

* Food for thought when next we consider gun control. *****

Something I have been thinking about is not the supply of guns, there are more than enough to go around, many of them unregistered and therefore difficult to confiscate, but the supply of ammunition, which it seems to me to be easily controlled. There is nothing in the Constitution giving you the right to keep ammunition. If I were worried about an armed public, I would limit the supply of ammunition.

Any thoughts

Yea. I got thoughts. Don't go there. Someone trying to limit our ammo is the same as trying to limit our guns. Taxing it isn't a good idea either.

Us already having some...

BTW, check out aimsurplus.com this week. They have some good deals. E.g. 1000 rounds of 7.62.39 for $200.

Right on all counts!!! We will never be taken, and thats why we can, with confidence, wave to the rest of the world; and who gives a damn if they see which finger we are holding up! :biggrin:

Oh yeah. :hide: Thanks Brian. :D
Hey, how come you didn't get your head chewed off for posting something that was already in the archives? Oh, it's only MEMBERS that get an ass chewing for not researching everything they post.

Sorry, I just had to throw that in there for a certain moderator.

Seems like I remember reading somewhere, probably relating to the Heller or McDonald decisions, that the abiltities to acquire or manufacture Ammunition were some how linked to the RTKBA.

I do know that the proposed UN Smalls arms treaty includes proposed regulation and control of the ammuntion supply.







But fuck them.

If you don't already have an adequate supply of ammunition for your needs, you should get moving on it before the lefties create another "executive order" that circumvents Congress. Seems that Obama has neutered the Congress and their lawmaking ability...WTF?

There are lots of people who reload ammo. Making your own gun powder & primers aren't rocket science either.
