If you think that lady in her car is the worst that can happen and that we no longer need to show any restraint, then you have a profound lack of knowledge of history. If a group of citizens start raiding federal offices, the military are going to get involved in defence of the federal offices.

And maybe that's okay, honestly, maybe we do need to make a stand when things like this happen, but be fucking prepared and be honest about what's about to happen because it will not be pretty.

I don't know why you're being downvoted. People really can't handle uncomfortable truths. They've never seen war, don't know what it's like. It probably hasn't clicked for them yet that they don't get to respawn when they die. They don't understand the unfathomable amount of pain that comes with getting shot. They don't comprehend how irrevocable any act of violence is, or the responsibility that comes with permanently altering the course of history.

I mean sure, something needs to be done, but these people don't stand a chance against a militarized police force with modern equipment and a virtually unlimited budget.

They don't understand the level of coordination it would take, the organization and the discipline required. The manpower, the combat experience, the heavy equipment. Small arms wouldn't cut it. They're not prepared. They don't understand what sort of preparation that sort of thing would require.

These are the same idiots who were saying before the election, "it's better if trump wins because it will hasten the revolution." Damn fools, there is no revolution. Not one that can succeed. The time to stop this was on election day, and we failed, because idiots like these thought call of duty was real life.

And then they downvote you for telling them war isn't pretty. Pathetic.

“People don’t know that they don’t respawn when they die”

What kind of Gamerslop bullshit is this. Yes, people know that when you die you’re dead.

This also reeks of defeatism. “Our chance was election day and they ruined it.”

Fuck all the way off with that bullshit.
