Here comes the initially innocuous communitarian militia that will eventually be co-opted to snitch on the neighbors to the IRS, the BATF, the EPA, etc., etc., etc.
Beyond that loss of innocence comes the eventual USSR predecessor where you better not get turned into "The Party" and lose all stature in the jurisdiction which if you protest, you'll be exiled to Siberia (northern AK) never to be heard from again!!!
Governments must always come up with ways of making problems disappear, especially when it causes discomfort amongst the ruling class by making them look the least bit bad. Government, after all is nothing but force and those running it have a prime directive to "look good" at all times, lest they lose control. That's why "prevention" is so important for maintaining control!
Crime prevention, disease prevention, political extremes prevention, criticism prevention, any challenge or other threat to control must at least be marginalized, or "dissed" into irrelevance.
Constitutional conservatism is a prime example of a massive threat to our current government and it will not be tolerated much longer. It's already being discouraged amongst blacks that try to break free from the slavishness to liberalism!!!
Just because people might think you're paranoid about this stuff doesn't mean the bastards aren't out to gitcha!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS CONSERVATIVES!!!
That's why I live where I do, I don't have neighbors. Nearest one is over a mile away. They live where they do for the same reason.
Can't stand people sticking their nose into other peoples business.
