“Time to roll up our sleeves and get the job done ourselves this November.”

The Old North Bridge is coming into view, buddy. Get ready for more than elections. Polling places and entire states are about to become battlegrounds. Buckwheat will try to lie, cheat and steal for himself a second term. The courts can no longer be trusted as disinterested arbiters upholding the Constitution and rule of law. On November 6, it may be necessary to be on the streets killing Buckwheat fascists and commies by the tens of thousands. Prepare yourself. Sorry to be so negative.

If you don’t like my words, then listen to Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn...

“Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if..”

Here's a bit more of that paragraph, I need to get a copy of the Gulag and read the whole thing, I didn't read it carefully enough years ago.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” ― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn
