Mike Johnson: 'Depraved' America Deserves God's Wrath - eviltoast

He cited, as supposed evidence, the decline of national church attendance and the rise of LGBTQ youth — the fact, Johnson lamented, that “one-in-four high school students identifies as something other than straight.”

    Y’all armed up, right?

    Take a good look at Palestine right now. Or the before and after images of Syria. Or Ukraine.

    Guerilla groups with guns fighting against national armed forces pretty much means everything getting destroyed.

    And unlike in all those areas, in the US most states are sitting on several nukes.

    Additionally, you’d be a fool to think that domestic civil war wouldn’t spiral into a world war as foreign powers got involved in picking sides or trying to move in seeing a weakened superpower.

    So when we discuss the idea of the US taking up arms against one another in 2024, what we are really discussing is likely the catalyst to the next use of nuclear weapons and the fall of large swaths of civilization.

    We really need to stop fetishizing magical thinking, and that includes gun owners’ fantasy of successfully fighting a modern civil conflict in the country with more military spending than the next top spenders combined.

    That gun is going to be real useful when an unmanned drone drops a bomb on your house.

        Are you really telling me that in modern civil wars bombs aren’t going to be ‘wasted’?

        You do know that Syria is a civil war, right?

          So you know then what to expect when the fascists take power. And they WILL take power, because Democrats will let them. And you know who wants you disarmed?..the guys that keep saying Democrats want to disarm you.
