It seems to me that the second amendment was to allow citizens to protect the land of the US against tyranny, and taxation without representation.
Well, with the poor being taxed more and more, and so much of it being funneled in pretty direct ways toward the rich, I wonder if the pacifism of the left in the US is well-founded at all. Is it "good business" to allow billion-dollar golden parachutes for the Wall Street executives who hung the country out to dry and put millions out of their homes? Does the average Joe really have an obligation to fall into line while the American dream is being very deliberately pulled out of his children's hopeful hands?
Nah. Sometimes pacifism is the bravest act a person can engage in. But that half of Wall Street aren't hanging from trees in front of their banks and stock markets shows me that it's cowardice, not a real hope for peace, that rules the common American citizen now.
May the fathers of America roll in their graves, knowing that instead of fox hunters, the country is now ruled by a king with a fox pelt on his fucking head.
