Don’t get run over by a tank.

Or get caught in an unofficial Church.

Meanwhile, I have read that TNT is the weapon of choice in some parts of China. Readily available on heavy construction
sites.

Hey Muller, the Chicoms have just interfered with the normal functions of our Government. When can we expect an indictment?

Protecting Human Rights would be rejecting collectivism/Marxism.

Rights in China?

Like the right to be accused of murder, subjected to a brief trial and condemned to death, carried out immediately with no chance of appeal?

Yeah, we should totally go there. /s

Exactly. If the criminal class screw ups we have here were in China, they would just disappear. We are very lax on enforcement.

Their gun control just forces the crazies in China to use rat poison to take out an entire village.

The root of the confiscation.

Imagine how powerful global enemies of America’s 2nd Amendment rights must feel.

In the villages, they talk of America and her Freedoms.

Drives ‘em nuts!

The xthole leaders hate that.

that their freedom fighters feed off of America every day.

It would take in the hundreds of centuries for American criminals and psychotic school shooters to equal the millions of people murdered murdered by Mao Zedong’s Communist Chinese government from 1949 to 1976, not to mention Stalin in the USSR from 1926 to 1953, Hitler in Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945, and Pol Pot in Cambodia from 1975 to 1979.
