Great article - and one worth saving.

I think, though, that a large-enough group of citizens are just about at the end of their ropes with this, and are spontaneously starting revolts. These numbers will increase as the weeks wear on.

I am saddened by the response of your average police officer - they seem to really enjoy the power and cache that comes with being a "law-enforcer" on their fellow citizens.

So now we know for certain. When the S really does HTF, who our allies will, and won't be.
Better to find out now.

Words mean things. The problem with many of the actions by "law enforcement," during this pandemic is that they aren't really laws. This shows the troubling, problematic results of poor civics education in our schools. In our republic, "laws," are generally speaking, passed by an elected, representative legislature and then signed by an elected executive (or vetoed and over-ridden by the legislature).

What our "law" enforcers are enforcing are in many cases not laws, but rather unilateral executive decrees by governors, mayors or worse yet, unelected bureaucrats.
