I can't help but feel a little sorry for this guy. He's a sad old thing. But why couldn't he find meaning in his life mentoring poor kids? Why do these people find so much meaning in this faux macho, nihilistic silliness?Becuase some people are defined not by what they love, or what they do, or what they accomplish, but by entirely what they hate and fear. And people who are filled with that look for ways to lash out against that. The government was perfectly fine with many of these types until the day a man named Barack Hussein Obama was elected to be the man in charge of it.
Now they fantasize about bringing that government down and being seen as heroes. If you've ever watched the show Dexter, you may recall the episode in season 2 where Dexter investigates a murder in a comic book store, and wonders how the people of Miami would treat him if he were the protagonist of a dark comic book series rather than a serial killer who murders other killers. Dexter, for a brief moment, considers the accolades he might receive as a hero...and then his reality slams the door on such nonsense.
The video above is the same sort of dark, almost comic book fantasy. This guy clearly considers himself one of the good guys, screaming about his weapons and what he'll do to those who try to take them. If he actually did any of that, the cops would most likely plug the guy without hesitation. They talk tough, but a great many of them are just scared and lashing out.
It's the ones that continue that fantasy and take it to extremes that you have to worry about.
So you think if this were Ted Kennedy instead of Barack the public would hold a different opinion?
ReplyDeleteThat recent poll shows that Republicans shit their pants and need to suck mommy's tit whenever a Democrat is President, then feel all safe and secure inside Daddy's big strong arms when a Republican wins, so yeah, you do have a point.
ReplyDeleteThe racism, however, is more pronounced when the Democrat is not only spending their hard-earned tax dollars on steaks for strapping young bucks, but the President is one himself.

ReplyDeleteThis is it. That's it and you're brilliant.
