The Ukrainians could probably access enough guns AK somethings from NATO to give all ten million half fit men in the country one each. However this would do little good and create big future problems after the war, the EU would not be happy with all those uncontrolled guns around. The government is seriously organizing and arming communities near the Russians and there are reservists of different kinds and the regular army on top of that. Retired officers and NCOs run the reserves and train them and even the irregular forces have been given guns, rules and authority in their areas. However everybody is organized and the weapons are accounted for, except the private ones.

In a place like Ukraine it would be wise to allow any gun you want, as long as it uses standard army caliber and can take army ammunition. An exception made for .22 cal for target use etc. A gov rebate could be given for the purchase of an AK or more for something NATO, that uses it's ammo. Every gun a citizen buys is one the government doesn't have to, when they draft them, they draft their gun too, or they show up with it as a volunteer. Buy an automatic assault rifle, but you must be permitted and register with the police or local reserves, police to be permitted and reserves to register your gun and your ass in a unit for initial firearms training and safety at least.

You could be right but Lviv is a few miles from Poland, a quick run in sneakers.

Ukrainian men won't and can't leave the country, except for kids and the elderly, all males stay and work or fight. It is the cool thing to do there now for youth and everybody in general, morale is sky high now. Not many will run to Poland and those that do are better off let go, WTF would want such creatures as citizens? I mean they might make republicans, but not patriots.

I see Putin is down to 6% in American polling, he must have lost a lot of republican support recently. Joe will climb in the polls with Ukrainian victory, so will other European leaders, that means the supplies and bullets will keep coming until Vlad is blead white or somebody in Russia does the fucker. If Zelenskiy wins this summer he will be before a joint session before fall, arm in arm with Joe to get some kind of medal and say thanks. Everybody will be trying to figure out how to get as much Russian money as they can, including Zelenskiy, who will get the lion's share.

Hope fades for resolution as Russia orders fresh strikes
Any potential hopes for an impending resolution to Russia’s war in Ukraine faded on Wednesday as Russian strikes were reported in areas where Moscow suggested the day before it would scale back those offenses.

I did not believe Putin on giving up on the rest of the country. I though he might try a fast one with making the rest of the world think he is pulling back. My first order of business would be to figure out how to harden my tank turrets. Pull them back, refit them and send them out again. At least for the Switchblade drones, the Javelins and such not much you can do.

He does sell shirts. It's all plowed back into the journalism. He's in my neck of the woods, and is real active in fund raising for abuse shelters. He's had them lock him out until they realize he is the guy bringing the bag of money.

Those are Special Forces. From what I read they aren’t warfare so much as local liaison . Interesting specialty that attracts the more intelligent.

He seems to have some serious enemies on the right, there appears to be a ton of hatchet jobs done on him. Some one on the right views him as a serious threat I think, I can make my own judgements about people's character and views.

He offers opinion on current events and I agree with him on most things, seems to have his head screwed on straight and knows a lot of interesting stuff. I can see why some on the right view him as a threat, he is, he's image and accent attract their prime customers and they might listen to him.
