    You misunderstand why these idiots have guns. They want another Boston massacre moment. They want to be able to say the rabble mob assaulted them and they had no choice but to defend themselves. A massacre might be enough to make the average citizen begin to actively fight back, which then gives them justification for U.S. Civil War 2.

      And if that justification never comes, they will have won the civil war.

      Oh I understand why they have guns, which is a big part of why I said they shouldn’t have them.

      Agreed though that they’re looking to escalate as hard as possible. That’s what police riots are all about.
