Just think of all the things you could do if you were as completely devoid of self-doubt as these terrible arseholes. You could march into a ten-pin bowling lane and probably have two or three free games before you were chucked out.

What I really don't get is why they constitutionally armed the citizens to guard against exactly this sort of thing, but apparently everyone's too polite to…
From what I understand, the right to bear arms was to protect the citizens from the Federal government - but the people who value that right in modern times essentially don't trust the Federal government, so they're absolutely OK with it being dismantled.
I think that's basically it, the idea that federal government could be attacked by an even smaller and more centralised group wasn't part of the deal. The citizens will bear responsibility for and be the victims of the crimes that are being committed, they just don't seem to have realised yet.
I think that's part of the appeal, Rhodri. Trump, Farage, Orban, all the populists, have given people the opportunity, without fear of consequences, to feel simultaneously entitled - I deserve this - and base - I am going to do/say the worst things I've ever wanted to
