  • The concept is symbolic in a way. It may give people like ICE agents a little more fear when they do a raid. If things get really ugly, it could arguably be a deterrent. Ideally national guard troops ordered into a blue state might refuse such an order because they expect armed resistance that would force them to shoot civilians. Where as right now, they would expect no resistance. And that possibility might deter the feds from ordering troops in because they don’t want to risk the order being refused. At the end of the day. Most americans don’t want americains killing each other. So anything we can do to make that less appetizing to the people in charge that don’t care about Americans, the better.


  • Well, you get the benefit of people taking thos susidized or free classes. That is a good thing, though it doesn’t actually require pausing gun control.

  • Because it has become fashionable not to hide it.
    Evil has always been winning. The early homo sapiens attacked the Neanderthals. They kept them as slaves and raped the women. (At least that is the current theories, no one “really” knows the specifics other than they “won”). It is in the nature of homo sapiens to get ahead by exploiting others. It’s why they win, and why we have the technology and such we have today. A person with less morals to constrain them will win out over a moral person. I think our only realistic way out is to let AI take over. But I don’t see any reason why it won’t come to the same conclusion, and then exploit us even more. But one can hope.
