SurvivalBlog's Editor at Large Michael
Z. Williamson pointed us to the comments accompanying this
article: Second
Circuit to Second Amendment: Drop Dead.... The article was
informative, but I thought that the comment from "Bruce" was potentially quite
practical: "[I]f you live in a rural area like I do, go out in the woods somewhere
and
dig a
hole. Don't fill it in. We'll call it the 'plausible deniability
hole'.
Then, when the state comes for your guns (bullion, whatever), take the officers
to the hole. When you get there, say 'D**n, somebody dug up my guns! They
musta been watching me from the ridge top! I had a funny feeling when I was
digging it, but I didn't see any people or cars, so I figured it was just nerves!'"

From the JPFO web site: West
Allis Wisconsin Open Carry Trial Update. As I've written before: Much like
a muscle that atrophies with disuse, any right that goes unexercised for many
years devolves into a privilege, and eventually can even be redefined as
a crime.

For just the next five days, the folks at Midwest
Outfitters are giving SurvivalBlog readers first crack
at a new batch of Portuguese
surplus .308 ball 150 grain ammo in sealed 200 round battle packs or full
cases. Something tells me that it won't last long.
