Wondering what the coming "troubles,"
political violence, is going to look like?

Sorry to be grim, but, facing reality.

More guns than PEOPLE in this country! 393 million / 326 million*

*Wapo chart 6/19/18.

3. Alot of people have a lot at stake

in maintaining stability. I have friends and family with babies for gods sake!

This is a global pandemic - fascism. Right along with the other virus.

Need a vaccine.

4. The irony of the term troubles...

My son's partner has Irish citizenship eligibility, so my escape plan if I don't emigrate for work, is to chain migrate to Ireland.

5. I started looking at property in Canada today -

I can get to BC from my home in 3 hours.

I know you can only live there for 6 months minus 1 day each year, but could give breathing room anyway.

It feels irrational to seriously start planning for this, but if history is any guide....

They will probably look like the Waukesha Christmas Parade.

Or the Congressional Softball practice.

Or the Family Research Council

Or the Fort Hood incident.

Or the Pulse Nightclub

Don't forget CHAZ/CHUD whatever the nutters called their "autonomous zone" in Seattle during those "mostly peaceful" protests.  Don't forget Portland for most of the last year and a half.

I don't know what kind of coming "troubles," political violence DUpipo fantasize will happen, but one thing I think is likely is that if Dem pols don't get off police departments' @$$ and let them do their jobs, more and more ordinary people will take action to defend themselves and their families.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Why are primitives worried about an end they won’t live long enough to see?

Because third world peasant labor is a good thing.

It'll be a miracle of biblical proportions if 80% of the inhabitants of Skinner's Island of Misfit ****-ups aren't planted in mass graves by their own side.

It always happens when the useful idiots outlive their usefulness.
