I'm in a very similar circumstance, but in my 60's. I also have been awake and aware since at least Nov 63. I've seen a LOT, even lived in another country (in Europe) for more than a little while.
Yes, it's a close thing, and we can't afford mistakes, but trust me, there is a better time for DECLAS than right now. Very soon, though, maybe like just before the midterms? Enough time to take effect, yet too late for the DS to defend against. That spells "game over" to many if them, and they know it. They will fight, and fight hard, yet they WILL lose. This is the easy way. Heaven forbid if we must use the hard way, but if we must, then we must.
DS, always remember some of swore an oath to defend the Constitution, and we don't take that event lightly. We also "wrote a check" to the American public to protect them, up to and including our lives. We intend to win, you DS idiots lack the spine to stand up to us (plus we outnumber you).
