You must have more faith in some Americans than I do. The Mask issue was what you should have been paying attention to. I don't doubt there will be a chosen few that will stand up, but when push comes to shove, who's supporting it until the end?
Actually I probably have even less faith in them than you do. I am not an optimist with human behavior. But like any other animal, 99% of Americans won't act unless they are directly threatened.
There will be a break-over point. We are not quite there yet, but now that we've escalated to regular nightly killings (justified and not), we are closer.
The masks illustrate the point perfectly. The majority is willing to go along with it because they think their personal lives are in danger. People will do almost anything to avoid that.
Hot anger is one thing. But cold anger, that is dangerous at an entirely different level. And a lot of conservatives have a surplus of cold anger right about now.
99% don't need to act, they never do. Historically during revolutions, only 1-3% of the impacted population violently participated. So we need 1-3% of half the country to be pissed off enough rise up, not 90 or 99%. The minority has always dictated the course.of history, and the majority have always been sheep.

You're not wrong.
We have this to our benefit, when the majority picks up those guns, they'll follow suite. Cause GOD FORBID they're not part of the 'in' crowd.

It's explosive.

That's why 3 percent is the number. That's about the extent of boots on ground support we have.
