Bullies melt when faced with even the tiniest bit of resistance. Because they are fucking cowards. All bullies are fucking cowards.

They know what they’re doing is illegal, and they only get away with it because some people let them. Don’t be one of those people. When you see your rights being violated, resist! When you see the rights of others being violated, resist then too!

The actions of the manager of the restaurant Chang Chang were not only American, they were patriotic.

Isn't this the exact reason Americans have so many guns, to oppose tyranny at the hands of the state? Funny how the most vehemently anti-gun control people are the same ones clapping and cheering as government thugs bundle people into detention centers without warrants.

Because having a gun for fun or feeling of superiority is morally easier than having it as part of citizen's duty.

Makes sense. Maybe should call people of the same political opinions to some responsibility so that they'd arm themselves.
