If resources ever get tight in America, you could expect that the government will take massive action to seize whatever resources they can to preserve the ultra-wealthy and privileged in America. As a matter of fact, I would say that the government would have a much easier time slapping down law-abiding citizens that just want to go to work and come home to their families every day, rather than criminals. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that this is the way it has been in America for quite some time now. Slowly but surely, the underworld has become the over-world and you don't have to look very far across one of our borders to see that happen.
Slowly but surely, the underworld has become the over-world...
For example, in Mexico, the people of that country are not allowed to own guns to protect themselves but the criminals have all the guns they want. They have bought out the politicians, with either money or threats in the people of that country know who is in charge. Drug lords and gangs are so powerful that they actually get their own burial places where people come and lay flowers on their graves. They are considered to be something to aspire to be, since they are at the top of the food chain. As a matter of fact, many of the drug lords that are the most famous in that country, actually get small icons of themselves made in small shops that sell them just like you would put the Virgin Mary on your dashboard if you were Catholic.
If you think the local police are going to protect you from rampaging criminals even now, then you are living in a fantasy world
Don't think that it can't happen here. If you think the local police are going to protect you from rampaging criminals even now, then you are living in a fantasy world. Back in the 1970s, when I was a kid there was a Mafia person in my neighborhood that just about killed four or five neighbors. One of the neighbors he hated the worst was a policeman, and he constantly threatened this man with guns and violence. The policeman was just as helpless as the rest of us, because the law protects criminals and the police even know it.
Currently, in the state of Kentucky, people that steal copper wiring out of just about everything they can get their hands on so they can buy illegal drugs, are running rampant. When they are caught ripping out somebody's heater or air conditioner from their homes, they get a two-year probationary period and they are back on the streets again the next day. I know of one man that sells trailers and every single one of the mobile home units that he sells has had the heating and cooling units ripped right out from under the new trailers.
As a matter of fact, he has caught the individuals, and they were back on the streets the next day. Now, they sit across the street from his place of business and wait to see when the new trailers are arriving, so they can rip them off the next night.
This is justice in America, fore criminals run everything...
However, if the common citizen who worked hard and paid their taxes all their lives went out and did the same act, they would probably get slapped in jail for 10 years. This is justice in America, fore criminals run everything and you don't have to look any farther than Washington DC to see it happen all the time.
When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005, the federal government had no problem with going in and confiscating all of the innocent people's guns so they could not even protect themselves or their property. Authorities went door-to-door, in some cases brutalizing and threatening old people, while taking guns away from everybody they could.
You don't believe me? Watch this :
Of course, criminals are not going to give up their guns and try to treat the law with respect. But even if the law is telling you to turn over your guns they are jumping over your second amendment rights to own a gun. The United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land, as stated in amendment six. Therefore, you can't just create laws and rules around that, because it is a part of our Bill of Rights. As a matter of fact, our second amendment in the Constitution quite implicitly states:
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
So, based on what I have just told you, you can see that the government has broken the law. We no longer have a nation that follows the supreme law of the land, therefore, we don't have much of a nation to begin with. In countries such as Russia, and even North Korea, the government has a constitution very similar to ours, however it is just a facade that nobody in government would dare to follow because they would lose all of their power. It is just there to make themselves feel better, but what good is a Constitution if nobody follows it?
God help us if we have a national emergency because this government will not hesitate to go door-to-door and take guns, food, gold or silver
Based on the evidence, that is where we are at in the United States today. God help us if we have a national emergency because this government will not hesitate to go door-to-door and take guns, food, gold or silver or anything else that they need to include your house, and as I see it, nobody will put a stop to it.
