"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." - Dwight D. Eisenhower

Guns don't defuse people any longer. The situation is getting critical, more guns in the oven will just be more buns getting shot! Society is hot-boxing!

For many, that isn't a problem; but from a civic efficiency stand-point- it isn't the optimal solution due to unnecessary collateral damage and added volatility.

Buns getting shot is the whole point. National Guard marches in. Enough friends and family die, the resistance gets emotionally radicalized, and shit will escalate into a type fight we can't even describe.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

I'll just repeat the second half of what i commented on.

It's optimal because it's the only solution. If there was a way of telling the government "No." without a gun, we would have found it by now.

Also: Damn. Why does everybody delete their usernames so fast on this site?
