We live in central PA, truly the middle of nowhere, at least to my formerly Manhattanite thinking. Very rural, very white. But there is a downtown nearby and people are in white flight like somebody set off a chernobyl incident. Gangs, ethnic Asians and muslims and hispanics, are causing major havoc and the street drugs are gotten like shells on the beach. The old timers all have guns but they are still intimidated, and they see their property values declining fast, meanwhile the national economy is tanking...and their young are not sticking around to clean up.
Which is why I don't see revolution happening. I'm in a redstate region full of old folks who remember what America meant, and they're letting punks push them out like the Indians got pushed, only 1000x faster.
Not one in a hundred will stand his ground, unafraid of being labeled intolerant. Not one in a thousand will actually shoot when attacked by someone darker than himself. We've all been taught for a generation or more, that can only be an act of racism. And racism is worse than killing babies, medieval heresy, horse thieving, torture, and sodomy all put together.
“Not one in a thousand will actually shoot when attacked by someone darker than himself. “
You must be joking. The vast majority of people will shoot ANYONE if their life is threatened.
