I did not rely on the government or police to protect me before this little dust up, and I don't now.
I have never expected them to ride in at the last moment and save the day like John Wayne.
I don't expect them to wipe my butt, or do much else.
Those who were previously relying on authorities for protection (such as the author) were living in a dream world.
Reality is a different matter.
More and more are learning that lesson.
Same for the Covid 19 BS.
Govt isn't responsible for you getting sick or not getting sick. That's a personal responsibility.
Sheep will always follow their leaders off a cliff though. There are plenty of sheep to spare. Plenty...
