Keep cutting it finer and peeling the onion, in other cases, you get the guys in the big black SUVs guarding el presidente’s palaces.
In hard times, a job is a job. And with great benefits, you can’t give it up. Even if it’s to follow orders NOT to be on a certain street to protect an unfavored group of dissidents from a mob of union thugs.
Cops WILL follow orders, in an economic depression. The best you can hope for is some leakage from inside that might help freedom.
Fine, then. They want to go play that "looking the other way game," they won't be there to see it when the union thugs catch some real serious $#!+, and end up missing work days; like all of them.
If that's the way it's gonna be — union before duty — then might as well come out with the "irons" and "take no prisoners." Lord, and it'd be one helluva big mass, but this crap would ALL be laid to rest by morning.
Speaking strictly philosophically, it really comes down to how long we want the pain to last. Do we want moderate pain for a long time, or great pain all at once?
We'll see what America chooses; see which side opts to show up wearing ski masks first.
