    Tipping Point 2: The point at which the problems are unsolvable without massive upheaval/violence/death (which is never guaranteed to actually fix the problems and often ends up making them worse).


    If TP1 happens before TP2 then things can work out great in the end, if TP2 happens first ... well that really really sucks.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    "Everything the State says is a lie, and everything it has it has stolen.
    -Friedrich Nietzsche

    We are not Australia, but that's what they are pushing for. It really is such a small few that are trying to dictate our lives. I see the media spin " mentally unstable gun owner killed in shoot out with LEO" the repeat. While everyone stands by and says good job to the LEO cause that guys breaking the law and a threat to "Society". .
