I 100% agree with you. Unfortunately, 200 years ago taking up arms against an Tyrannical or Imperialist government was patriotism. Today it's terrorism. My how times change.
P.S. Check your URKOM messages on MySpace! I sent you a question about some tracks I found. I had no idea how to get in touch with you.
All true. Which is unfortunate. Its tough to have a people's militia when your government spends $450,000,000,000 a year.
On top of that... most people on the libertarian left are anti-gun. Which is fucking ridiculous. So, the US has a vast network of secret armies who are ready to try and resist an out of control government. This is true. Unfortunately, like you said, this doesn't guarantee things with get better. A lot of these groups are from the far-right, and train for such absurd disaster scenarios as national race riots, or the election of a black commander in chief. When a white president from Texas fucks with the constitution, it's off their radar if it's not the second amendment.
but ian, what do you have against FOOTBALL! ? i mean, what's better than watching huge sweaty men in hd in surround sound with an aging guy clinging to the glory days screaming at you?
I was OK with football right up until the Giants beat the Patriots. I mean.. what is this, the WWE?
Football also annoys me, because the CFL doesn't suck. And people from Canada both watch CFL and NFL games. But Americans are so xenophobic they hear the phrase "Canadian Football" and immediately assume its some kind of leftist socialist conspiracy to subvert our barrel-chested, beer-swilling American pastime.
