Peasants shooting peasants yet again, I'm sure the country club crowds finds it quite entertaining, as they see and treat us as subhuman livestock anyway.

They'll use it to divide the peasants and get a bunch to vote for more tax cuts to keep their guns. Oh, and any attempt at legislation they'll make bank when gun and ammo prices go up.

This is exactly what one should expect from these circumstances.

The entire point of the "militia" was the US to have no standing army as the founding fathers thought that standing armies made tyrants of any leader.

Now instead we have the biggest standing military on the planet, a national/state/local paramilitary groups called "the police" jailing the largest percentage or number of humans anywhere on the planet, and an crazy armed populace of want to be heroes.

Bless their hearts!

We are living in a constant Mexican Standoff from these three groups; and fuck all i am so sick of it.
