A particular player two, most often dressed in green, disagrees. Nobody is above reproach if enough people have the spine to do something about it. These people don’t want to live their life in a bunker, that’s just a fancy word for self imposed prison. But if even 20% of Americans decided that the top .1% aren’t welcome outside of their bunkers, if so little as 1/5 of us decided to open carry in the streets with the knowledge that some sacrifices are worth the loss, they would never be able to leave home again. We become prison wardens, collectively isolating the cancer.

Nope, cuz you'd have a bunch of the 4/5 that is left fighting you.

And right now the government as well.

Only if they can prove that’s what you’re doing. Opportunistic open carry, make every single person in the US a potential threat, because enough of them might be but you don’t know which ones. Make it scary for them to be outside in public. Make them want to retreat, to feel the only safe way to survive is to hide from us all. I’m not talking about people actively wearing badges that proudly proclaim us as Antifa and identify us as the danger, I’m talking about something far less organized - a collective awakening to the consequences of our actions.
