. . . . You only get one free Waco.
If the statistics on the sales of firearms and ammunition tell you anything, you ought to understand that the same dynamic is at work now and yet from your point of view you haven’t DONE anything to deserve it. Oh, you’ve muttered occasional threats to reinstate the Assault Weapons Ban, but no one believes politicians when they speak anyway.
So why, you may ask yourself, is this happening?
Like I said, Eric, you only get one free Waco. It was your original sin. The botched raid, the massacre, the cover-ups, we’ve been through them already. You may remember that no one was held to account for that — not very reassuring to the citizenry. And if, as is apparent, someone in the Department of Justice hasn’t learned the lessons of the first Waco, we, the millions of "bitter clingers" out here in fly-over country, have. We have no reason to be trusting of your motives. For we, and you, have been here before.
So, let me explicate the obvious: There are no do-overs, not when it comes to your employees killing American citizens for bad reasons. Look around, count the guns, estimate the billions of rounds of small arms ammunition in private hands, and consider that the latest Janet has already declared most of the rest of us, including veterans, "domestic terrorists" anyway. Do you think we have not noticed? Do you think we do not remember the misdeeds of the last administration you were a part of? . . .
