Being independent means being able to fend for oneself and others during tough times without relying on government. The country boys could bring that lunatic of yours down to his knees and basically shut down the liberal government of your state if they wanted to as they demonstrated the other day. Oh, I heard they didn't cause any trouble or make a big mess and leave a big mess behind for others to pickup up when they left either.
The Gun Guys are a joke, and they proved that on this last trip to Richmond. Most of their potential physical opposition consisted of a few State Police officers -- many of them women. They marched around acting tough, and left. I don't think they'll be back soon.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
