There are a growing number of people that are truly believing that some sort of armed resistance is what is needed. But, who wants to be the first to take up arms (or otherwise show a violent resistance)?

The person you are replying to said they are not in the US. @14th_cylon, I must apologize for my compatriot’s lack of geographic awareness.
