    Trust me as a Cuban.

    Cuban from Havana or Cuban from Florida?

    Wtf is the military gonna do? Kill 200+ million Americans fighting?

    Glances at Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Palestine

    America bows to no king or tyrants per our constitution.

    As someone who has spent my entire life in this country, I regret to inform you that there are few things Americans love more than the taste of boot. We pledge to the flag. We bow to the church. We grovel at the feet of the boss.

    This country is flush with tyrants who parade about promising new kinds of liberty. And behind each one is a train of courtiers and sycophants and cronies and thugs, the first group singing their praises and the second stomping on the necks of anyone bold enough to heckle or jeer.

    Buy your guns people dont be a coward its your constitutional right.

    Buy your guns, sure. But who do you point them at? When the boss lays you off, the bank freezes your account, the grocery store locks its shelves, and the sheriff posts an eviction notice on your front door, who do you shoot? This isn’t a war you can win with bullets. You’re fighting a comprehensive economic system.

      Lots of words.

      So your argument is “DO NOTHING”?

      Why should we listen to you?

      Like, what do you think you’re accomplishing here?

      The options are to buy guns and have some option for resistance against an oppressive regime, or listen to you and do nothing.

      You’re wasting our time. And yours.

        So your argument is “DO NOTHING”?

        “My plan is to get a gun and shoot myself in the foot.”

        “I don’t think that’s going to work.”

        “Oh! So we just DO NOTHING?!!!”

        Online Discourse in a nutshell.

        You’re wasting our time.

        My Brother In Christ, you are posting “Revolutionaries Rise Up!” to random anons on a back alley message board. Your time was already wasted.
