That buying over a billion and a half to two billion bullets and creating 'no hesitation' posters of US citizens was all... in keeping with an orderly normal government function. Go ahead, admit it. You've buried the notion.
Bury this.
Do you even believe in America? Do you even know what that means anymore? I hope the fuck I get well enough to disappear before you find out exactly what it now means.
It doesn't fucking matter what I've done over the last five years. I was preparing for the wrong contingency.
ReplyDeleteI don't think anyone saw this happening, or this fast.
ReplyDeleteI personally think the reason they haven't gone ahead with these gun grabs, internments, and outright executions, is because they are unsure, strongly, even more than their usual cowardice. The first question is, how long will they take to try to gather more power? As is, they are losing power daily, if they are weakening institutions as a balance, including the economy. We know what they will do if they get enough power, but what will they do if they decide they can't, ever, really win?
I think it would be very difficult for them to back off, being even this close. Carnage and damage to America might be more gratifying to them than holding off an election or two and hoping they get a better shot and things aren't fundamentally transformed in the interim. Evil isn't known for being patient. They have the demographics, through illegal immigration and even our low birth rate. We have the guns if we are aging. And probably from the stall I am guessing we have significant portions of the military, sheriffs, and the police... modestly but pretty surely.
You couldn't have planned for everything and it isn't a waste. It is more a waste for me, since I will be trying to leave. Assuming I can get well enough. I hope to sell as much as I can as soon as I am healthy, including my home. Some things just won't sell out well, though some things will. And my home? It kills me. Then again, I've been thinking of continuing the improvements and trying to rent it? Gah!
Like I said, if you have a place to go, for a bit, down south, when it comes down, then wait to come back a bit later. While I can still fight, I can't really wage war on foot... just too old. But I can avoid the conflagration and come back when... it isn't quite as hectic, help out then, as I can.
