Interesting theory, Mr. K, and unfortunately one that has some historical support. People with a reason to hate the general population, whether they be whackos or groups raised to hate others, will be more likely to turn on the average citizen when the time comes. The left has used their goon squads to intimidate and kill the opposition throughout the world, so why not use the same tactics here?
as factoryrat said “Putting people lacking any moral compass into positions of authority makes for an easily manipulated force,”
That says it way better than I did
