    Turns out people don’t like it when you kidnap their friends and family.

    Of course, perhaps conservatives don’t understand this.

      That’s because conservatives think they’ll always be the kidnappers.

      Imagine if Obama did this exact same series of events. He wouldn’t have gotten this far, because he’d be assassinated, or at the very least impeached, by now.

        Because the rules for conservative and liberals are very different.

        Democrats, by in large, respect the rule of law and their base will reject candidates that don’t. Conservatives simply want to be the ones giving orders and not necessarily following them. So the Venn diagram of mutual interests only intersects when a democrat does something that both sides disagree with.

        Republicans cry foul whenever a Democrat exceeds the debt ceiling but you don’t hear a fucking peep from them when Trump causes the national debt to lower our credit rating.

        We need to purge ourselves from conservatives. And the window to do so is closing quickly.

        Yet, but it’s coming. They’re just warming up on the foreigners. They’re easy targets, and good for getting the system up and operating.

        But they have lots of enemies besides undocumented immigrants, and sooner or later, they will start coming for them. My family has multiple people in vulnerable demographics, so I’m staying alert.

        There are a lot of red lines, and I have been questioning myself as to when it will come time to go rogue, but I am clear that if ANYTHING happens to my son, it’s on, and I will become VERY dangerous.

        Until then, I am stockpiling food and defensive gear, camping gear, losing weight, getting in shape, etc. I’m training for civil war, hoping I’m wasting my time, but I don’t think I am. This is going to get LOT worse before it gets better. The only question is how worse.
