As you said, this isn’t a military war; it’s civilians only so we qualify.
I still have no desire to terrorize people
this is Canada, people here are painfully polite & peacefully docile, there's no call for that sort of thing

You see your role as the nurse who comforts the unwanted dog as the vet puts it to sleep. That’s very altruistic.

that's my saving grace, I have high conscientiousness
otherwise I would be a criminal sociopath
that's another thing Jocko Willink says, to be a good a Navy SEAL, you have to think like a criminal

It won’t be FMWs who put my wife & I down; it will be conscientious armed men.

there is no preparation for doom other than the grace of the Lord
I'm quite optimistic about my ultimate fate, a life well lived already in fact

Ours will be too, as long as we last anyway...

liberty is freedom granted by an external authority, freedom itself is only what you take

American liberty = freedom X opportunity, but how would you know that?

American liberty is gone. My wife & I will be gone soon enough too, and maybe my son will remember what American liberty was? Maybe not without me around to remind him? It's over though, no matter what: FMWs + complacency have won the day.

your liberty is simply a wall around your burgh manned by soldiers
in terms of opportunity for the middle class, I think it's better in Canada now actually
