The goal of the left is to stick it to us and rub our noses in it. Humiliate us and keep doing it to prompt a reaction where they can really go after us without impunity. Demonize who we are and what we believe in as antiquated and with violence they can just moves to remove our right to bear arms.
But they need a long, sustained reaction to do so. They are desperately trying and the UniParty is allowing it to happen. No defense or us, no interest in the coup, the election, or illegal immigration. Pelosi and McConnell are the power brokers who control the voices of our elected officials. They are being muzzled because they want the appearance that everyone in Congress wants this to happen. It is not true and they are running out of time.
They border crisis might be their last big move which will be a disaster but in the end it is a win for us. If we can stay the course, this is the move where they have overplayed their hand.
Nobody is reacting because that will never happen - until we have lost everything, are starving and have absolutely nothing left to lose. Of course at that point we will not have guns either, and it will be too late. See Venezuela. And the Soviet union, Cuba, etc. We are not special in this regard. They will take our guns and most people will comply.
janis joplin always said, "freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose..." maybe that's where we have to get to.
