Well I am 3 for 3

Only one of three for myself.
Thought the algorithm just looks for the key words,… so two of three.
I’m a strong supporter of the second amendment, let me say it again so the algorithm doesn’t miss it,… “I support the SECOND AMENDMENT!!”
So one strike…
I’m not a prepper, but I have certainly engaged in prepping conversations, so, strike two.
I fully agree with the sentiment of come and take it. But I’ve never specifically used the Latin phrase.
My guess is they’re flagging “come and take it” too,… so more than likely strike three!
But then of course, forums such as this have to keep those algorithms soo inundated with hits that it would be both easy to miss something like that tick turd in Pensilvania (or help disguise federal assistance in that plot)

I was on the FBI watchlist when I ordered a copy of The Anarchist’s Cookbook out of the back of a Rolling Stones magazine when I was in High School back in the late 70’s. Never got the cookbook or a refund.

If you click on this link in the first story…
previously released to the public
…it will take you to a second story previously released and you will find this statement which I will correct because the FBI is obviously taking its references from the uninformed far left.
The FBI also claims that the historic Alamo flag is also a sign of violent extremism. The flag features a canon with the words “Come and Take It” printed below. The phrase comes from the last stand of the 300 Spartans against the Persian armies.
The Historic Alamo Flag is actually the Historic Gonzales Flag. Here is the beginning of our great symbol:
"The “Come and Take It” flag is an iconic symbol deeply entrenched in Texas history, representing the spirit of defiance and resistance. Its origins can be traced back to a pivotal battle for Texan independence – the Battle of Gonzales in 1835.
The History of the Cannon
In the early 19th century, as tensions between Texan settlers and Mexican authorities in Texas were increasing, the Mexican government sought to disarm the settlers. In 1831, they had provided the settlers with a small cannon for defense against Native American raids, but in 1835 political tensions heightened, causing the Mexican troops to demand the return of the cannon from the Texas settlers of Gonzales.
Refusing to surrender their means of defense, the leaders from the Texas military asked the women in the compound to create a flag in reference to the cannon. The flag they made had a white background with a black cannon and a lone star in the middle of it, featuring a defiant challenge: “Come and Take It.” This simple yet powerful message was the foundation of their determination in a battle that would soon shape the history of Texas forever.
The Battle of Gonzales
The Mexican troops arrived in Gonzales on October 2, 1835, with the intention of taking back the cannon, but the Texan settlers refused to comply. In a brief skirmish, they successfully repelled the Mexican forces, firing the cannon and proudly waving the “Come and Take It” flag. While it only lasted a couple of hours, it became the first battle of the Texas Revolution and the first step toward freedom from Mexico. The Battle of Gonzales inspired others to join the fight for Texas independence."
The last stand of 300Spartans is also an untruth as there were other Greeks there at the Battle of Thermopylae. This is a excerpt taken from Wikipedia:
"Leonidas had marched north with a Greek force of approximately 7,000 men. The Persian army was significantly larger: estimates by ancient authors assert that it numbered in the millions, but the consensus among modern scholars is that this figure is exaggerated and that it realistically consisted of between 120,000 and 300,000 men. For the first two days, the Greeks blocked the only road by which the Persians could traverse the narrow pass. After the second day, however, the Greek renegade Ephialtes showed the Persian troops a path that went behind the Greek lines. Having learned of Ephialtes’ betrayal and witnessing the Persians outflanking him, Leonidas dismissed the bulk of the Greek army and remained to guard their retreat along with 300 Spartans and 700 Thespians. It has been reported that other Greek troops also remained, including up to 900 helots and 400 Thebans. With the exception of the Thebans, most of whom reportedly surrendered, the Greeks fought the Persians to the death in one of history’s most famous last stands.
You know, I really don’t mind if they deem all of us as MVE’s or whatever other alphabet term or phrase they can come up with, but they need to get their historic facts straight before they bring the fight.

If you have a membership in any of the gun rights groups (not NRA) you are most likely considered a MVE.
