It feels like every pick of this administration is just someone who has a motivation for corruption.

A dictorship, unfortunately unlike many other countries this one not only is bad for its citizens, it also has a major impact on the planet.

Anyone that expects this will only last four years hasn't been paying attention on history books.

I have been told for many years that Americans needed their guns to protect them from a tyrranical government. Did they forget to rise up, or are they planning to do it later? Or did they in fact vote for him?

The people that scream the most about needing guns to protect them from a tyrannical government are the same that scream about backing the blue.

Those positions are diametrically opposed.

The 3rd Amendment exists for a reason. The police of colonial times _were_ the Redcoats. They _were_ soldiers working for the king. Modern police serve the same function and have basically the same powers. They are not peace officers - they are soldiers, and I hope one day the people living in this country wake up and say "no more".
