If you ever get sideways with govt forces they will have no issues with watching you burn to death or bleeding out.

“Our government... teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.”

Louis D. Brandeis

“If you ever get sideways with govt forces they will have no issues with watching you burn to death or bleeding out.”

The drawback to this kind of oppression is that it teaches people to prepare for overwhelming force with an asymmetric and unstoppable force of their own.

Law enforcement needs to step back from this militarized policing syndrome of theirs and try being civil whenever possible.

If they can’t manage this then the reality is that police will end up dying and we’ll eventually have a popular revolution to overturn and disarm the government. Sorry, but creating a domestic military out of the police should not be allowed as a loophole to Posse Commitatus.

Americans will not forever tolerate an occupying force in their midst even if it says ‘Police’ on the tanks instead of ‘Army’.
