Hunter Numbers..Worlds largest Army

This is a true story that most people will never know re: #2 of the Bill of rights.

After the Japanese decimated our fleet in Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941,
They could have sent their troop ships and carriers directly to California
To finish what they started.
The prediction from our Chief of Staff was we would not be able to stop a
Massive invasion until they reached the Mississippi River .
Remember, we had a 2 million man army and war ships……
All fighting the Germans.

So, why did they not invade?

After the war, the remaining Japanese generals and admirals were asked that question.
Their answer……
They know that almost every home had guns and the Americans knew how to use them.

The world’s largest army… America ‘s hunters!
I had never thought about this….

A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of states and
Arrived at a striking conclusion:

There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin ..
Allow me to restate that number.
Over the last several months, Wisconsin ‘s hunters became the eighth
Largest army in the world.

More men under arms than in Iran ..

More than in France and Germany combined.

These men deployed to the woods of a single American state to hunt
With firearms, and no one was killed.

That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of
Pennsylvania and Michigan ‘s 700,000 hunters All of whom have now returned home.

Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally
Establishes the fact that the hunters of those four states alone
Would comprise the largest army in the world.

The point?

America will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower.
Hunting — it’s not just a way to fill the freezer. It’s a matter of national security.

That’s why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us disarmed.

Food for thought when next we consider gun control.

Damn good point. Pay attention People!

Unfortunately its not the case, the Japanese couldn’t have maintained a supply route to the US then, this has been discussed on historical sites. I think that at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack, the US had only been supplying arms and money to the Allies and we didn’t have much of an Army. Our best Naval ships were being used to escort supply ships to Europe at the time of the attack. The Japanese were fighting the Chinese and most other countries in their region and the Pearl Harbor attack was just to try to slow the US down

There was a good program on the military channel last night about the Japanese and WW2, their biggest threat against the US mainland was some balloons with explosives on them and it was a 4 day trip, not many balloons made it and even fewer did any damage
