Lugod is not a 501.c3, so stop spreading fake news! It's a 501.c7. I
look forward to hearing the news.

And it seems that Arms are becoming increasingly technology related,
such as the MRAP, regardless of how much it seems to violate the Posse
Comitatus Act.

make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
