I have been thinking about this for a while to the point of anxiety. Outside of the conclaves of Asheville and Boone we have a lot of people who are MAGA or just don't care to vote. With Chuckie saying he will not run again that leave the GOP to shove another Mark Meadows in here or even worse. Not sure how there can be worse than those tow but I keep getting surprised. Anyway, if you are progressive and anti-gun please watch this to help you understand why there are some of us who feel we need to be armed and prepared. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfNeKco5et8&t=3s

I have been thinking about this a lot lately. Trump is called the California election rigged and it is just the primaries. He is going to ramp up and so will his followers. At this point I have no idea how this is all going to play out. Groups like this one in Waynesville make me concerned. https://northcarolinamilitia.com/ I have reported numerous groups like this to NC law enforcement, the AG, and the National Guard. They don't seem to care. As you might not know during Helene there was a group going around "hunting" FEMA in the Lake Lure area. These people concern me. After the election in November if it does not go Trump's way he will stir up these groups. I hope to whatever power you follow that nothing happens but we all saw what went on in Minnesota and is still going on. I do not know where I am going with this. I just don't know. figure out a way to protect yourself.
