Holy shit you guys are pussies. Home of the brave indeed!
The military does nothing.
The media does nothing.
Congress does nothing.

Law enforcement is largely enabling.
While I absolutely understand the disgust and disdain I’d ask what you think would happen in your world if the institutions and structure you knew failed so completely to react to this lunacy.
I never expected the first term and after that chaos and incompetence was quite happy to see it end AND a return to normalcy. Then the idiot segment of voters chose this moron again and it’s inexplicably worse than the first go around.
A civil war would be … horrific. I have kids that would be pulled into such a conflict.
I support better candidates, am engaged and volunteer to help in some tiny way to get them in office but I’m just some guy that is not going deliver much of an obstacle to an army or police.
