We already know we're getting screwed.
What happens if the health care is nationalized, amnesty is passed, gun confiscation is enacted?
What will finally break the proverbial camel's back?
When do WE make OUR intentions CLEAR?
The way it will happen is that the cities will erupt, there will be riots and looting and burning and maybe killing. The police and firemen will desert their posts. The National guard will be called and they will not report.
The special urban forces will be called out and they will watch. There will be chaos and total disruption of city life. The good people will leave.
The government will fall. A leader will rise.
In other news, firearms and ammunition sales are through the roof...
It’s an incremental thing... and we’ve been incrementally screwed.
The founders fought a revolutionary war to seize God given rights back from the king who had usurped them and ever since then those rights have been slowly slipping back under the control of a new “king”, one that we “elect” every four years.
For some reason, our present king has chosen to accelerate the program. He multiplied the national debt and some complained. He nationalized the auto industry and more complained. As he extended his reach to cover more and more of our day-to-day lives, still more spoke up until now when he is trying to nationalize the healthcare industry and millions are shouting their displeasure.
Because of the economy, there were relatively few truly concerned about the financial takeover. The high price of new cars kept the numbers of protesters down when he took over the auto industry. But nearly everyone has to go to a doctor at some point so nearly everyone is affected by his latest big move.
Will guns be next and what would be the reaction by the general public? We relatively few hard-core gun owners might have a line in the sand beyond which we would let no government agent pass but the vast majority will, after all these years of incremental brainwashing, dutifully line up and turn in their guns or extend their arms for the implantation of the chip or whatever shot the CDC says is best for them. It may be - at least I hope it is - that he has moved too fast and the general populace isn’t quite as fast asleep as he thought. The recent surge in gun and ammo sales leads me to believe the giant is beginning to stir. As a child I watched the giant rise up from a seemingly sound sleep and vanquish enemies on two major fronts. Perhaps it will happen again. Time will tell.
In the meantime though, our guns may not matter. Suppose an epidemic were to break out and martial law forced upon us. Suppose further that some of your neighbors died of this new virus and the army - possibly a Canadian army - told you to take your family and climb on a bus to... somewhere else supposedly safe. Many of us are prepared to fight against the JBTs but against an invisible virus? I have an idea that most of even the hardcore gunnies would head for the bus. BTW, did I mention that guns would not be allowed on the trip?
Of course none of this is likely to happen, is it? All those laws slipped into appropriations bills at the last minute and those aggreements between Heads of State really aren’t intended for anything other than the possibility that some well-meaning scientist might accidentally drop a beaker of virus in an airport restroom. Right? Read my tagline.
