''round these people up'' where have I heard that before?
The British Empire did it all the time, my family in Nova Scotia lives on former Acadian land.

I'm living on Huron land right here meself.

British North America was pretty much founded by people being rounded up and put on a boat out of Britain.

My ancestor who arrived here in 1757 was actually press ganged in Liverpool.
Does it really need explaining that past injustice does not justify it's repetition? How would you feel about being rounded up again and being shipped off somewhere nice, perhaps to the Alaskan North Slope? You avoided a similar question after you justified Native American genocide with "Manifest Destiny" and I asked you how you'd feel about it if you, your family and everyone you knew were killed for someone's ambition. The piece of humanity you're missing is called "empathy". You seem unable to put yourself in the other guy's shoes.

I live in Canada, Alaska don't scare me.

That being said, I'm holding an American passport now, I can't let myself be taken alive

I'd have to go down shooting and die with my boots on.

America Fuck Yeah.

North Slope is further north of Toronto than Toronto is from Miami. Bring your mittens.

And you dodged the empathy question once more. It's easy when it's other people, huh?

Empathy is overrated. Knock off the virtue signalling.

First of all, I've patrolled in the high Arctic, have you? I've operated in -50C like it ain't no thang, have you?

Second, I could round people up at gun point and run them off, what's makes you think I wouldn't?

Hell, I'd like to hang lefties from the lampposts, wouldn't shed a tear, I'd sleep like a baby after.

I don't hate immigrants per se, but if they are leftists, fuckin' gas them, please do.

It is only the fact that I am law abiding that I don't kill people, in the event of breakdown of civil order, watch out.

I'm a misanthrope, I don't like people, I cry like a baby when a dog dies, but people, not so much.

I connect with individuals, but I don't have an emotional connection to the masses.

Also bear in mind, I was indoctrinated from a young age to compartmentalize.

So I could mass murder for the state.

I am trained and conditioned to kill, without quarter nor mercy, make no mistake.

I know that I have counterparts in this world, so I don't expect quarter nor mercy neither.

Thus, in extremis, as I said, I'm not going to be taken alive, I'll keep moving and shooting until they cut me down.

There's worse ways to go, it's not a bad way to die.

Rather die in a hail of gunfire than by lung cancer or what have you.

I got a buddy who was shot seven times with an AK, point blank.

He said he didn't feel any pain until he woke up in the hospital

In the moment he was being shot, he said it just felt like impacts, no pain.

So much adrenaline, you don't feel the pain.

Main thing was tho; he wasn't getting taken prisoner, he made a break for it, that's how he got shot.

When I was young I might have been afraid, now that I'm old, I don't give a fuck.

I'm closer to death now, I don't fear it like a young man, I'll be dead soon anyways.

I just take each day as it comes, every day is a gift, if somebody wants to go to war with me, more fool them.

I am a little bit crazy, and I have deep well of aggression, so I wouldn't recommend fucking with me.

They won't take me alive, and a few of them will be coming with me, no doubt.

I only empathize with people I see eye to eye with, my friends and allies.

People I view as my enemies, I can easily dehumanize, like I say, I've been conditioned for that.

I don't find that my enemies empathize with me at all neither

So I don't know why they would be expecting anything different in return

Fuck them and the horse they rode in on. Live by the sword die by the sword, I'm ready to, are you?

I have been to Cold Lake which is not even half way to the Arctic from the Canadian border. That place gets cold as fuck. In fact, the first pioneers probably just named it Cold As Fuck, and the liberal central government bureaucrats censored it to Cold Lake.

In actual fact, the Arctic air mass comes down over the whole country in winter.

The Prairies are not significantly warmer than the North Slope of Alaska.

Once you get to -40C you won't notice the difference between that and -50C anyways.

All of Canada is a frozen fucking wasteland in winter, except BC.

That's why all the homeless junkies go to Vancouver, it's the only place they won't freeze to death.

A freaking manifesto of how to do evil. The basis of Judeo-Christian religion is the Golden Rule, an idea you declare is alien to you. You subscribe to the same tribalism as the Hutus & Tutsi's.

Turnabout is fair play, that's doing unto others as they would do unto you. Fits right in with eye for an eye, proportional retribution, it doesn't actually clash at all, as the godless atheists would suggest.

If they leave us alone, we'll leave them alone, if they cross into no man's land to attack us, we're going to fire back, bet dat.
