Welcome aboard!!

If you’re suggesting sending men with weapons of war to take my weapons of war,then I’m fairly certain that’s what’s called an act of war… and the definition of tyranny.which coincidentally is the reason for the second amendment to begin with!

Our city is nicknamed that by the people that live near the coast because we are closer to the Alabama border then they are. Things are very "country" here compared to our ritzy neighbors down south in Destin.
