“I believe that a well armed society is as polite and civilized as they come.”
If personal arms is what protects you from government then I agree with you. Right now the only reason the morons who populate public office are at all receptive to public sentiment is because they fear the wrath of the voter at the ballot box. Once they nullify that fear sufficiently (by immigration-associated shifts in voting demographics, by control of the media message to the public, and by election fraud), the only thing left for them to fear and thus to keep them in check is the fear of armed rebellion. I would never have believed this possible in the America I knew as a child. It’s beyond sad.
I agree with you. But "they" need believe armed rebellion is a real possibility. Otherwise they won't take it seriously,
