| One thing to keep in mind in a nation of A.) guns and B.) whackoes; if things get too extreme, if the unthinkable becomes thinkable, some nutcase with a lot of firepower and a desire to die publically will take out the president, and the nation in its shock and horror will shudder a sigh of relief.
America shares that with many third-world nations. Political assasination has been a reality in our nation. As repugnant as assasination is, it is a final solution, both possible and proven, that keeps any American leader from feeling totally safe if they decided to oppress us too much. We're a spoiled nation. We're also a greedy nation. And we're armed. Don't push us too far, big bro. |
