[QUOTE="Easy_C, post: 1292443, member: 8290"] [b]RE: Gun confiscation bill proposed in Virginia[/b] Even most "red pillers" don't understand how this actually works. The only power they have are things that exist only on paper. The right has all the civilian guns and most of the combat people in the army are right leaning, as well as the veterans and national guard types being overwhelmingly right wing gun nuts. I can emphasis this [b] Because I've met some of these people[/b]. Yes, they actually are that dumb to where they think whatever decree they've issued will mindlessly be followed because almost all of them are either corporate elites or lawyers who have been used to operating inside systems their entire lives where everyone is meekly obedient to and reverent of paper authority. That's why they're pushing so hard to "diversify" the US military. It isn't entirely working because those types tend to gravitate towards cushy office jobs in support functions (and disproportionately in the Air Force). [b] I WAS a Guardsman before going active[/b]. The Guard is far, far, less likely to do something like this than is the active army because most of them ARE those gun collecting, assault rifle fetishizing, local-oriented rednecks that this bill tagets. What they don't understand, and apparently quite a few people on the right don't, is that Dems are expecting the people being harmed by this bill to also be the ones enforcing it. Besides which I think even if nothing happens the optics have been made clear: The right now understands that the left has no effective enforcement arm that can deal with any kind of organized non-cooperation. I've seen the map. It looks like most of them are on the Western side of the state with some coastal. As far as federal buildings I think you'll find that the federal government is so massive that almost every county in the US has them. Here's something else to consider: Keep in mind that the Democrats are bought and paid for significantly by foreign interests. It is entirely possible that one of those interests is deliberately trying to incite them towards a civil conflict and there's a lot of them that want the US out of global economic leadership. Most notably, the Chinese. Them and the other entities (some previously mentioned here some not) have a lot to gain by supporting anything that accelerates civil conflict. But also keep in mind the left elite doesn't NEED to be pushed or "masterminded" into this. We're seeing this with things like the panicked reactions and hysterical proclamations of the ADL that have popularized anti-semitism to a degree actual neo Nazis could only have dreamed of. [b] The left instinct when they feel threatened is to hysterically double down on threats and shaming[/b] and that instinct inevitably drives them towards behaviors like threating to send in the national guard, go door to door for confiscations, or advocate dropping nuclear bombs on gun owners.
