But that means giving up your so-called freedom! Do you not understand that paying with bitcoin through Paypal puts you onto the exact same system that you claim to want independence from?
And once again the bitcoin fanboy falls back on âYOU CAN CHOOSE NOT TO BITCOINâ while refusing to address the substance of any argument.
Iâm pretty sure I didnât, given that armed drones didnât exist in 1921.
Airplanes and canons did, and yes you did, it was yet another secession from the British Empire to form a country, 1776 and 1921. There was more seccessions than just the US ya know.
The only difference between an airplane and a drone is where the pilot sits. They also had balloons and blimps (and twirly moustaches)
Airplanes barely existed. They were small, limited in range, limited in weapons, and did not have precision guided weapons. A modern armed drone can lurk in position for hours or even days at a time, waiting to identify the exact person being targeted, and then kill that specific person with a precision missile strike. War has changed since then and your AR-15 is useless.
There was more seccessions than just the US ya know.
Do you understand the difference between secession and rebellion?
Seccession vs rebellion, well both form a country donât they of soverign control, the difference is the method.
No, the difference is the situation. US and Irish independence involved secession from a (de facto) foreign power, relying primarily on the occupying power having a limited investment in continued occupation and not being willing to pay the price of keeping their territory. Domestic resistance against an oppressive state is an entirely different scenario. Itâs now an existential threat to the power of the state that forces the state to crush the resistance by any means necessary. And there is no longer a relatively homogeneous block of territory and people that can break away, the enemy is your neighbor and that neighbor will be eager to hand you over to the secret police.
IOW, you are delusional enough to think that you live in your own private bubble where your actions have no effect on anyone else and nobody commits mass murder with AR-15s.
What actions? I am no threat to you, donât worry about it. Itâs not going to grow little AR-15 legs, run over to you and do something bad, itâs safely locked away.
Are you illiterate? Or are you just too stupid to understand the difference between âyou defend a system where mass murderers can get AR-15sâ and âyour personal AR-15 will be used for murderâ?
And TBH being worried about your AR-15 is a reasonable concern given your thinly-veiled threats to commit mass murder and domestic terrorism if you decide that the government is doing something you donât like (such as banning AR-15s).
Are you honestly this stupid? In uniform you are accountable to a chain of command and the legitimate authority of the state, and you are part of a system equipped with all of the tools of modern warfare and the ability to genuinely defend the nation and its citizens. As a private citizen with an AR-15 youâre a delusional lunatic who has watched too many action movies and thinks that murdering the local cops for enforcing gun control laws is âdefending freedomâ.
I am also accountable when out of uniform, for my actions. Unless of course the judicial system doesnât exist which it does.
No problem if youâre being a victim I can stand and watch and let those in a uniform (or tie) come and help you. But I would be wrong then if I was to not help right?
The military chain of command creates accountability prior to the point where the civilian judicial system would convict you of murder and domestic terrorism.
And I notice that you ignored the part about the military being effective at defending the state, while idiots with AR-15s are completely useless.
So, if I was there with an AR-15 and power to stop an attacker on you, do you want me to do nothing? I bet I would be wrong for âdoing nothingâ too
This scenario is incredibly unlikely to ever happen, and if it does it will involve a common criminal and not an oppressive government. Please do not move the goalposts from âdefending freedomâ to âshooting a random thug with a knifeâ.
