Melt the guns, melt the fear, kill the deaths by guns and by fear of the GUN.

(37,392 posts)How to live in a police state. When you watch the police apprehending professional criminals, those guys know what to do. We don't. We get shot because we are amateurs. There are two kinds of people, my friend. Those who have been arrested and those who haven't (yet). And if you're going to survive, you're gonna have to learn how to get arrested.
