“If you don’t already have a target on your back, you aren’t paying attention.”

Listen, if the commies start purges, they aren’t going to liquidate or re-educate half the country. They’ll do as they always do, target the leaders and the most stubborn malcontents first, and cow the rest into submission by that example. So, voting Republican or owning guns may put you on one list, but signing something like this puts you on a whole different kind of list. There’s no strategic benefit to be gained from that action.

If we were ready for open war, like the founders were when they signed the Declaration, it would be a different story, but we’re not. We’re sitting ducks, waiting for the midnight knocks on the door. You’re just making sure that they knock on your door early.

“And you are worried about the names our political enemies might call us?”

You’re the one who asserted that the petition was sending a message, like that was accomplishing something. I was just clarifying what that message was that you are sending.

The bleat of a coward...

No. You were trying to assuage that little voice in the back of your head that is telling you it's safer to be a mouse than a man. When the lion comes, it'll eat the man first before it ever gets hungry for mouse-meat...
