We were less free in 2012. Now we are more free because the media finally decided to point these conditions out. If you want to continue to be even more and more free, the answer is clear: Trump 2020. Hold Government Accountable. |

The man truly concerned for his liberties will be making it his business to arm himself. Becoming skillful with those arms will also be constructive -- at least civic-mindedly responsible.
The #resist lot are not exactly flocking to gun stores in aid of the above, regardless of how they prate about their endangered civil rights... you know: because Republican!! -- Aaaagh!!! Jesus, such poseurs. Such frauds. Such Democratic voters. I don't think much either of them or of their powers of analysis. I guess I can step away from the soap wrapper -- not enough for a box -- for a bit now. I feel better already.

Right! That will scare the bejesus out of those Warthog and Apache pilots.

"those Warthog and Apache pilots..."
...are far more likely to be people like 'me' & UG than 'you'.
You really think the bulk of military folk & law enforcers will comply with gun confiscation (for example)? Pres. Sanders or Warren or Harris (and a complicit congress) ought to worry more about coup than rebellion. Again: time will tell

Who said anything about gun confiscation. I'm talking about a group of night watchmen taking a piece of US soil and declaring it a minarchy free from state and federal jurisdiction. That will not happen.

'I'm talking about a group of night watchmen taking a piece of US soil and declaring it a minarchy free from state and federal jurisdiction."
Where did I say that was how things would go down? Where, Bruce? Nowhere, Bruce. I never said it, never hinted at it. You, implying I did, well, that just must makes you a damned liar, now doesn't it.

Fuck you, how do you establish one without taking land from somebody.
Answer, you don't, and that's why you've living is fantasy land, never going to happen, even if you take the ring to Mordor.

"Fuck you"
Better watch that: tw will declare you substandard, an extremist, a vulgarian, a child, etc. Me: I just think you're dumb. # "how do you establish one without taking land from somebody." Yeah, like I said, to you elsewhere: Americans might very well vote themselves into smaller government, and -- if they find 'smaller' works --they may keep votin' for smaller. Without a shot fired, without a square foot annexed, minarchy might happen. Is it likely? Nope. Is it possible? Yep. And: I think it becomes more possible every day. # "never going to happen" Accurate assessment or desperate hope? As I say: time will tell.

Not a chance. You'll never break up or away from the USA. If you move to Greenland your boy will buy or take it. What's Denmark going to do about it? You will rent his golf carts for his secret service boys to use whether you like it or not.

either you're truly stupid or just messin' with me: I'm thinkin' you're truly stupid
"You'll never break up or away from the USA."
Won't have to if the bulk of Americans vote for smaller government (locally, state-wise, nationally). Again: Without a shot fired, without a square foot annexed, minarchy might happen (right here, in my town, your town, his town, her town). Think on it, stupid: you wake up one mornin' livin' in a minarchy. You'd worried about the shrinkin' government for a few years but -- like a good boy -- you'd trusted the folks who 'know better' to get a'hold of the problem. But they'd didn't, and government shrank and pretty much everyone but dips, dinks, losers, and twerps liked it small. I'm cryin' for you in advance...mebbe Bernie can comfort you.
