Seriously. A gun behind of every blade of grass. The US learned this lesson in Vietnam. A gun behind every tree didn't help them as a world super power, we still lost. A gun behind every grain of sand. The USSR as a world super power lost in Afghanistan. Then the US tried to test it and we're still there over 10 years later. You really want to try? Go ahead. All the tech in the world doesn't help you if you are fighting something with nothing to lose. They spend money, you spend lives. Lives are far more easily replenished when compared to an economic collapse due to an unsustainable war.
What kind of fucking oppression do we live in when a leader has someone of the worst approval ratings in history, one major news station supports him while the rest dump on him constantly and the opposition party is getting stronger and stronger by just offering to roll back his polices
This the kind of "oppression" that most people would dream of
It's funny because prior to Trump these same people used to scream that post-Soviet Russia has been unfairly portrayed as the evil. I remember the photo-numales crying about Russians always being the bad guys in video games.
I bought a gun because I'm worried the president is a double agent for a foreign adversary, who champions white supremacy and hate and violence. I don't understand why people think a 'resist' bumper sticker on your car is actual resistance to an actual threat. That will not help you when the local Klan rallies are emboldened by the Presidents words and come knocking on doors.
Forbidden fruit phenomena is a real thing. Look at how many shitty plastic bump stocks got sold after the Vegas shooting. Manufacturers must miss Obama, just being in office seemed to be enough to make guns fly off the shelves.
