UOC'ers are easy prey. Plain and simple. We are derided from every corner...pro-gunners, anti-gunners, LEO's, and regular citizens. Did I leave out anyone? According to one group we carry useless paperweights that cannot be loaded fast enough, from another group we can go from law abiding to felon in 2 seconds which is an unacceptable threat/risk to the general public. LEO's taunt and laugh at us while threatening our very existence for a furtive movement (a barely perceptable movement). The general public is so fearful of us due to decades of brainwashing by the leftists, nanny statists, socialists, communists, lamestream media, Hollyweird, and life long members of the NRA. And free staters don't understand why we would even want to UOC to begin with much less even live in the PRK.
The bottom line is for those who are a special class of citizen (ie LEO) they have been indoctrinated into believing they are better than we are, and that their safety is more important than our civil liberties. Their ability to go home every night to their families is more important than the oath they took to uphold and defend the Constitution. They are not LEO's out of respect for the Founding Father's legacy of creating a free people and to insure those freedoms remain intact for their posterity. Their life is more important to them than preserving the Founder's legacy or your natural law rights. They have not pledged to themselves, or to the public they pretend to serve, their lives, their fortunes, or their sacred honor. But understand, its not necessarily because they won't, its because they don't know any better, they don't know history, they don't know the true, original intent and meaning and hopes and desires the Founders created for us. Many of us don't even know, myself included. I have been reading and studying for the past year and haven't even scratched the surface yet.
So for those LEO's who get it, and they are the fringe minority (as we are to the pro-gun crowd) my hat is off to them. For the rest just roll your eyes, ask if they are an Oathkeeper, and educate them on the Constitution as well as to the fact that if they violate your civil rights you WILL take the necessary steps to seek just restitution, not only for yourself but also for posterity. It's that important.
So to the OP, good for you bringing up the topic, but for improvement find ways to explain and educate without being critical not only for the benefit of the LEO, but for everyone he/she comes in contact with. I simply take on the role of history teacher. I don't judge or condemn, I just try to highlight the original intent. A lot of people I talk to ask if I'm a history teacher, which I'm not. But find your own voice to be effective. Carry on!
