Cowboy poetry in Montana
"...[T]he cowboys of Lewistown, Montana?  They’re a model to follow.  They have a culture, a place all their own, and they are striving to preserve it.  To that end, they gather once a year to celebrate their shared past.  They visit with old friends, and they welcome new ones.  In their song, they remember what their lives used to be like.  They keep a record of roping cattle, and of looking at the skies for direction, and of comforting each other when a cowboy falls."

"So in all likelihood, the terrorists will continue preparing to mount small-scale swarming assaults along the lines of the Mumbai model. We can't count on detecting or pre-empting all of them. In the wake of such an event, it should be expected that networks of armed Americans would spring up on their own to deter or counter terrorist swarms. Indeed, many in the Tea Party are already calling for the passage of enabling "firearms freedom" acts."

Defending ourselves? What a concept.
