you are inside while your fellow citizens are in the street protesting corruption in government.... your neighbors havent invited you to grease the guillotine with em.... you live in the biggest house on the shiniest hill.... you dont complain about the taxes you pay.... your boss is a family member at your government job.... your third summer home is any concern to you at all .... you write laws that dont apply to your dual citizenship.... your a politician in a family of no soldiers.... your gated community is neccessary..... your campaign funding has foreign interests..... you police a community you cant show your face in.... your religion dictates your politics.... your religion supercedes your morality.... your religion precedes your decency.... your only trusted friends are from your place of worship.... you need to pay for positive PR.... your personal security speaks another language.... your personal security staff has a high turnover rate... your idea of a social change involves attire. you are hiding inside from an angry mob....

Just a few obvious observations.

I am inside and dry and warm in a house that I am paying off with money that I earned. With the money I earned, I am buying guns and ammo to protect myself from that angry mob.

What did you do to the people in your community that you should fear them so much?

I qualify for some, but not all, of those observations and I have nothing to fear.

"You might just be a..." denotes a particular element of innocence. I hope you enjoy that, rather than the false sense of impunity, so rampant among so many today. Thanks.

I've was poor once, I know how it feels.

Poor has little to nothing, to do with anything. There is much more at stake than your paltry personal affairs.

The world is changing at a rate, unsurpassed in history. I assure you, that you are not of a ruling elite and thus, are not immune to those changes. If you feel safe, it is solely because of hubris or benevolence on your own part. Thank you.

But think of all the guns behind those gilded walls, will you be in the lead as you rush into the hail of bullets?

I hope no one ever has to, but preparedness is never foolish. Do you believe in anything enough to live or die for it?

i don't think that you should talk about Obama in that way.

Blaming a lackey for the actions of overlords is not my way. Sorry.
