The irony being.. this kind of BS makes me actually consider being
armed, just to protect myself from all the nut cases, and most of them
are definitely ***nut cases***, who already are. Sadly, the only thing
likely to change this trend towards shear stupidity is a good old
western shootout some place. Betting it will be between a teabagger and
someone they conclude is "liberal" because they wore the wrong shirt to
an anti-liberal rally. Ironically, the wacko politicians are at least
partly right. More people are getting armed because they are fearful and
don't think the cops can help them. What they fail to grasp is that they
realize that a) there are seldom enough cops, and even less now in a
recession, b) many places the cops are in the pocket of local politics,
and some of those **hate** certain neighborhoods, c) crime rates, for
the most part, where dropping before now, especially violent crime, but
that might have reversed, and not because 4 people some place stopped
praying to the right wings dog, d) under the current conditions,
promoting "more" guns is a recipe for disaster, not a solution to making
things safer, in the absence of cops that the government can't/won't pay
for, or which have been corrupted by politics to not help certain parts
of the cities.
All in all, I am much more worried, today, that one of these idiots, who
watched a few too many episodes of Walker Texas Ranger, will shoot
someone for looking too not-right wing enough, than that an army of
liberals will try to storm the capitol building. Why? Because if the
later happens, it will be **because** the WTR sort will have shot a
bunch of people, then holed up in the capitol building, with hostages,
and the right wing spin engine will be busy calling them "freedom
fighters" for it, instead of insane, or terrorist, thereby helping to
cement the civil war these idiots seem to want so badly.
Frankly, I wish they would just save us the idiocy and bloodshed, move
to Texas, secede, and the rest of us where smart enough to let them turn
themselves into a third world country, instead of bothering to stop them.
