society_corrects_itself leo_celsus What sort of Americans are we that we consistently choose protection and security over freedom and privacy? Isn't this supposed to be the land of the free..and the home of the brave? Then why are we all clamoring for more prisons, walls and muscle-bound brutes with guns to protect us? And now...to protect our politicians?! We're all kidding right? What do we think happens to a politician's sense of accountability when we makes sure that the American public can never reach him to hold him PHYSICALLY accountable? (don't mention the vote..they don't really care once they've got the money and connections..they just want more..that's all.) The more politicians screw their constituents, the more likely it is that some outraged lunatic will pop a shot off at them. There's a reason for that. There is a reason they are supposed to serve or be served. It's because the PEOPLE are supposed to be in charge of the country. When our needs and wants are misread by our leaders, often society itself, with it's collection of scholars, rebels and misfits, decides that correction is in order. Sometimes that correction is embarrassing..sometimes it is violence. Often it is necessary..and as much a part of the American political process as standing in line for hours to vote. The 2nd Amendment was a much more powerful statement than most people even begin to comprehend. It's about TRUE, as opposed to system-supported accountability. 070905 ...
