The pig sees her, turns, aims, and shoots her almost point blank.
Americans are packing more heat than the French. We won't ever organize to shut down the country, but there will be more executions and attempted murders like the United Health CEO.
As people fall into despair most will rot away silently, but a minority will decide to take somebody with them.
How about we organize instead? Make it a goal to go to the protest this weekend, meet one person whose sign you like, get their contact details and agree to meet up at the next protest. It’s that easy to get the ball rolling.
Protest would be more effective to effect change, and I will be doing my part in my city.
america may have tons of guns, but when what's probably the majority of them are owned by people who seemingly approve of what's happening, will there ever be the necessary large scale resistance?
For what I and probably you want to happen? Almost certainly not.
For something to happen? I figure yes. I will be doing what I can to shape the future with peaceful protest.
I mean guns guns guns people talk about but IEDs won Iraq and can be made IN A CAVE WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS
Yes, if Americans rise up, I think it'll look a lot more like The Troubles than the first American Civil War. For one, because there aren't clear, geographical divisions this time, and indeed, I would guess that guerilla tactics are going to be more effective than guns against a military with overwhelming conventional warfare capabilities.
Absolutely. The US military was tiny at the outbreak of the civil war, and a whole lot of the veterans of the Mexican American war were fighting for the South.
If violence escalates, and I think it might, it will look much more like the troubles than the American Civil war.
I wouldn't be surprised to find more of those in use in the US I. The coming years.
