In reply to the discussion: Revealed: how the FBI coordinated the crackdown on Occupy [View all]Kelvin Mace
(17,469 posts)72. Wow, did you misread me
So I post about how we Democrats might ought to try and be more united about protecting all our rights, and you practically wet your pants with glee about some prospective future tyrannical government annihilating me and my family with drone-launched Hellfire missiles.
Wet my pants with glee? Hardly I asked you a question. How are these guns going to protect yourself from a police state that already exists? All the Constitutional rights we had, except for the 2nd and 3rd, are already NULL and VOID.
This has nothing to do with "glee" and everything to do with REALITY. When the Occupy movement was under direct government/corporate attack, where were all the 2nd Amendment die-hards?
Oh, right, they were rooting for the police. Just as they now want legions of armed police in our schools to "protect" us.

Sounds to me like you side with the FBI and police and not with Occupy. Whose side are you one? nm

It's sad. OWS still trying to justify their ineptitude. Blame it on "the government".
