  • This smells like the second amendment argument about defending against a tyrannical government. Please, take inventory of materiel and finances before you go down that road.

    I would argue there’s another deep hypocrisy lying with people who insist such figureheads should be killed, but the only action they take is blathering about it on public forums.

    Be the change you seek, go set an example if you think you know what’s right.

    But pitting us against the ruling class in this way isn’t going to be a winning proposition. The best you’ll get is a massive and severe security clampdown.




  • Some music gear got stolen from my van parked in my driveway.

    I called the cops the next day, they came over and took a report and told me nothing ever gets recovered.

    Then I called around the music shops to report serial numbers and stuff. Within a day I got most of my equipment back, especially the expensive parts.

    But the cop who took my report for some reason was tasked with doing the recovery from the second hand store, and he was really mad about it.

    That was about 12 years ago, and since then I have come to the conclusion that I would only deploy police in conditions where I would be willing to deploy lethal force which is almost never, and ideally probably never.
