So, lets say we get to August or some summer month, and 4,000,000 people are protesting right out front the white house.

Do they send in the tanks? Do they kill 1,000,000 people? Would republican civilians see empathy for the dead americans who were democrats? Or would it unite the nation like 9/11 did, except this time against the government?

      Short of sending an M1 Abrams, they’ve thrown everything at us along with the kitchen sink.

      We’re way past Tank Man. Also, they already sent in the tanks. The police have riot vehicles which are typically repurposed military tanks.

      I don’t think you understand how bad it is in the US right now.

      There has never been anything like this in this country since WWII and even then the Japanese labor camps were leaps better than alligator alcatraz.
