If the Democrats keep the White House, the American population of producers will experience a legal mugging not only for Americans alive now, but for generations to come as the American civilization winds down.
I don’t think they burned him over $5, they burned him over mugging an old man.
Street justice is harsh, but safety may improve.
Harsh, but that’s one way to keep people in order during a social breakdown. You make it absolutely clear that anyone who doesn’t keep his nose clean during the crisis will be dealt with. If they’ll burn your ass for $5, you probably want to reconsider any of the other ways you were planning to take advantage of the situation.
Idle government thugs robbing the people in between executions of Enemies of the State.
And yes, it can happen here.
You just won the internets.
Such a fate should be reserved for those who wear the badge of authority. When things go the way of Venezuela, patriotic Venezuelans ought take it out on their king!
