The largest standing army in the World, might surprise you a little.

in #informationwar4 years ago

This Army has been growing lately, as they are adding women to their ranks! They are not the ones I expected.

This army's origin surprised me.

This Army is over five times the size of the standing army in China, and nine times larger than the US Army! Pretty impressive since it is 100% Volunteers.

Fall hunting season is almost here and a fun annual topic of discussion around the campfires is always how large the U.S. population of hunters is?

And how does the number of U.S. hunters stack up against the largest standing armies in the world?

Much to the chagrin of anti-hunting forces across the USA, hunting numbers have remained steady over the last decade, even growing as more and more women get behind the gun and out in the field.

As more Citizens arm themselves to protect themselves from their government; these numbers will climb, as a direct result of that increase. Citizens, exercising their Second Amendment RIGHTS; purchased enough firearms to outfit the standing armies of China and Russia combined! The increase is Not small (over a Million a Month), and EVERY firearm in the hands of any US Citizen, increases our security.

People across the country are beginning to THINK, and that bodes well for the Republic! It also means that soon the liberals will become the zombies of recent film fame, as they begin starving as their policies crash the Republic.

If you add the 1.4 million regular Army, to the 12.7 million number of Hunters, not even including practicing Militia here; results in a standing army of over 14 Million!

The Militia is estimated at over a million, but some may be hunters , so there will be some cross overs:

As our Founding Father said:

"When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

long live the 2A

Amen to that! It is here for a good purpose.

♡♡♡♡

How many does China have?

2.3 million.

God Bless America

Yes, our standing Army is 1.4 Million. BUT they do have a lot of backup!

:)>

That's good.

Most of them will be on our side if something starts.

♡♡♡♡

Actually, the real number is between 70 to 80 million Americans. We are the militia. We are the biggest "unofficial" army. The founders knew what they were doing. Sadly still most of these 70 to 80 million people are statist faktriots. Or else they would of taken our country back already instead of complying with all this lawless unconstitutional covid-1984 crap.

The numbers are higher every day. More people buy firearms with each new restriction.

I think they were referencing the people that practice regularly, but the more we get, the better off we are! Right now the Second Amendment is supporting the Entire World right now!

You are also right about the Sheeple...they are gutless cowards, on top of being stupid!

Fantastic news.

This does NOT make the liberal politicians happy, that much is certain! I am actually glad they are not happy in DC. The more they worry, the better it is for the Republic....

Keeping their powder dry too, I hope.

I'm sure that is right, LOL! They sell a gun oil here named liberal tears too.

Want me a liberal tears gun...Don't know what it is, but want me one.

Minnesota huh? Going crazy over there.

That gun oil tempts me.

The 'Bad cop' in Minnesota, needs to be prosecuted, and they all need Jail time! NO POSSIBLE EXCUSE!

Agreed...I'm not sure the looting is a valid response though. Innocent people suffer. Seems an unproductive way of protesting. Just my opinion.

Looting is illegal, but there are methods to stop it short of murder. Tear gas, bean bag rounds, tazers, and simple cuffs; are a few options that come to mind. Locally, they have a water cannon that is pretty effective.

This guy should not have been looting, but kneeling on his neck until he smothers to death, is excessive force.

Non-Violent protests are protected under the Constitution; looting is not.

:'(

Yeah, some humans like to exert their will over others...Sometimes those people are in positions of authority. Fortunately that sort of thing doesn't happen here much, not that we hear about anyway. There's a few issues to sort out in Minnesota I'd say.
