    Thoughts and prayers with no actual advice or directions. The marathon is over, and we lost. But yeah, but pepper spray, because that works against guns.

      Not revolting before you are sure you have the proper support to succed IS the actual advice. They are just waiting for something like this to happen as a pretense to suspend existing law and take total control. So you have exactly one chance. Use it wisely.

        Zero chance. All the left leaders are gone. Americans are too self-centered. Half of the country wants this anyway.

          Only a quarter of the country actively voted for this.

          And among those, I’d bet only a small portion actually understood what they were voting for. There are a lot of unthinking voters who only vote R because that’s what their entire family has always done.

          That said, I still put a lot of blame on the apathetic idiots who couldn’t be bothered to get off their ass to vote at all.

          .

          The worse thi gs get and the more people start directly feeling the impacts, the more support you will se for taking action

        I did. I think you spelled it wrong.
