Ultimately they’re being civil right now but once they have their way they’ll be beating and arresting us (Just like the polite Nazis would).

      Yeah why shouldn’t we violently attack and murder anyone who does anything we don’t like? We’re good people and they’re bad people therefore anything we do is right and good!
