militias were designed to fight for the government not against it, like when it was used to quell the Whiskey rebellion in Pa.

Just a bored “too soon” followed by a “thoughtsanprayers, etc., etc., etc.,” before moving on to "fires burning, riots, deaths and destruction because Colin Kaepernick hates the flag and veterans, and Bill Gates computer chip in the vaccine, OMG!”

Also, what about that time some black guy did something bad with a knife?

The plutocratic traitors in the Right Wing will play all their favorites once again.

You would think they would want the well regulated militia, well, regulated.

But never fear. When citizens rise up to protest this insanity they'll be back, regulating the hell out of them.

I noticed a new bumper sticker this weekend...

Police lives matter

instead of

Blue lives matter.

No matter. It's just another version of an empty slogan shown by Trump's terrorists killing a cop and attacking other cops.

There is still wit, but it has a very serious edge to it.
