You betcha!
And the other half is sucking on the big teets of lady liberty.
Sounds like an accurate poll to me.
And how many of that half are willing to fight?
Only half of Americans are paying attention...
“And how many of that half are willing to fight?”
I would guess around 3%, or 3 million. That was about the same percent as in 1776, enough to stick a giant hot poker up King George’s nose the last time.
Just wait about five years, sharia will substantially reduce those numbers.
“Only half of Americans are paying attention...”
Oh they’re paying attention all right. They’re on some sort of government program. Or they’re government employees. Or academicians. They LOVE Uncle Gimmie and his Wifey Lady Liberty™. Without them they’d have to work for a living.
The FedMob? That utterly lawless confederation of treasonous dunces?
Yeah, they’re a treat to life and liberty. You betcha!
So, half the people aren’t as stupid as the political class hopes they are? Too bad a lot of those are old farts.
Local Police are not the problem.
So tell us, what have you been arrested for?
Orson Scott Card (Ender’s Game) in his Afterward to “Empire”:
“But any rational observer has to see that the Left and Right in America are screaming the most vile accusations at each other all the time. We are fully polarized . . . . Does this lead, inevitably, to civil war? Of course not — though it’s hardly conducive to stable government or long-term continuation of democracy. What inevitably arises ... is the attempt by one group ... to use all coercive force to stamp out the opposing views . . . . On the left, we have a ban on free speech and peaceable public assembly in front of abortion clinics and the attempt to use the power of the state to force the acceptance of homosexual relationships as equal to marriages . . . . Can it lead to war? Very simply, yes.”

This is why the Left wants Americans disarmed. This is why the right wants all decent people armed. We’re all safer if tyrants of whatever persuasion have to face an armed populace, and conservatives approve of that final guarantee of our safety. Tyrants are less likely to cross too far over the line if they know that “a long train of abuses and usurpations” will result in a real risk to their hold on power.
Sad its only half.
That is why the elites are pushing Common Core , Socialism, free stuff ... on the younger generations.
>> half the people aren’t as stupid as the political class hopes they are? Too bad a lot of those are old farts.
Bingo!
“Local Police are not the problem.”
They are the ones enforcing draconian laws, so they are.
Change the law and they won't enforce it.
