The above is not a measure of how afraid the American people are of "crime in
the streets" -- it's a measure of how afraid our corrupt political
institutions are of being
publicly recognized as criminal in nature and of being punished for it by the
people ...
The rank and file of the Dark Side of the Force in the fortress called
"government" are clearly arming themseles against the inevitable revolt of
the peasants, knowing well that the People, having been betrayed* by their
ruling class after the FIRST attempt at liberty in the American Revolution,
can now be expected to try again --with the added element of revenge-- in a
mass uprising more like the FRENCH Revolution. Because, as in 18th Century
France, Hell hath no fury like a whole citizenry seduced and abandoned ...
My own idea of "gun control" is that potentially dangerous weapons should be
kept out of the hands of tyrants and all their uniformed lackeys. "When the
right of law-abiding citizens to bear arms (in self defense) is revoked, only
criminals retain the right to bear arms." At this point in time, the most
heinous criminals are the "enforcers" for the mob bosses who tyrannize over
us in our federal, state and local so-called "governments."
This just demonstrates to what extent the People's "representatives" in our
so-called "governments" --macro & micro scale-- have, in effect, declared WAR
on the People.

*Look coldly at our history. Immediately after the Revolution, the federal
government had already became a monopoly of mercantilist Freemasons who were
committed to industrializing the United States after the example of Europe.
Hence our Civil War, aimed at bringing the southern states under the control
of international finance. From that followed the incalculable fortunes made
in railroads, steel and oil by the "robber barons," culminating in the
political hegemony of just a few men --Rockefeller, Morgan, Harriman, et al--
with their Anglophile sentiments and proto-globalist alliance with the
Rothschilds of the new British Empire, institutionalized by the CFR by the
end of the 19th Century. Plutocracy under the guise of "capitalism," and
economic imperialism (alongside Britain) as bogus "nationalism." "Democracy"
sold to the highest bidder ...
In only three generations, Jeffersonian democrats had lost to the republican
Federalists who were then, as now, a faux aristocracy of merchant bankers and
elitist controllers.
Just as with the historic precedent -- all the "populist" uprisings in
England during the mid-1600s (the "Glorious Revolution") which resulted,
ironically, in only revitalizing the autocratic Nation State, with the added
element of a new PLUTOCRATIC ruling class.
It's a small jump from the ideals of the Freemasons who created the Royal
Society to administer the economy of the Empire, to the Freemasons of 19th
Century America -- and in both contexts, it was the rich who were ennobled
and ruled as virtual "royalty."
All the rest --the stuff of high-school US history textbooks-- is just
political "theatre."
