Tactics like filibustering are definitely an obstruction to democracy... though anybody who seriously believes that 'representative democracy' is either deserves to be ruled by the cuntic idiocracy we have.

I don't see the problem. There's nothing special about american citizens, or american soil.
They recently executed that ex LA cop with guns, ( unless he did himself in ) but it cost police lives.
A drone strike would have saved the lives of cops.

Similarly, those looney gun fanatics might stage a shoot-out seige. Just blast em with a drone strike. Job done.

It's every citizen's right to own a drone. It's in the constitution. Everybody should have one. And probably will.

He stopped talking. Didn't beat Strom Thurmond's record. Roughly 13 hours to Strom's 24(ish.) Of course, Strom was speaking out against civil rights legislation, which, unlike Rand's topic, is one we can all agree deserved obstructing...

Pretty damn close to bullseye there, Svarty.

So what if people get blasted by the state? You consistently vote for the right to own dangerous weapons. A people who are armed to the teeth shouldn't expect kid gloves from the state.

You get what you voted for.

Look if you're not going to even bother watching one of the videos I posted (neither of which is long and one each from a typically 'left' and 'right' source) then please also don't bother responding.

I had been away long enough to forget how popular the "fire from the hip as if I know shit!" approach is on ratz.

To be fair, that approach is common just about everywhere!
