... was these are a bunch of militia, weekend warrior, cosplay-in-the-woods, January 6 type guys who have been given carte blanche and a paycheck to play the "tough guys" they always wanted to be -- and like those Harvard(?) psych tests showed years ago, people given absolute authority over others tend to devolve to cruelty for the sake of cruelty.
