This is the reality of where the U.S. is headed. It won't be long before your government uses those tanks and billion and a half bullets on any of you that try to fight back.

Tell you kids to get out while the getting is good.

It also ties into our discussion about the political quiz placing people along right/left and statist/anarcy continuums.
