We did not allow it? We have allowed our representatives to run their offices without representing themselves and without being held accountable. We should have been pushing for accountability and nothing else for decades. We should have been pushing for private/civilian investigations of government entities and individuals for decades. We did not. We complained about it, we didn't push.. And we allowed new representatives to tell us they would push for us.
This is the absolute last last last time we count on representatives.. If everything is not delivered in the next 6 months, every red state should be occupying their state government and isolating themselves from the federal govt.. The point of the 2nd amendment isn't to wait until the government is invading your home.. that would be, on the contrary, rather pointless…the point is that your whole state can say "Come and Take it" and is positioned such that 'taking it' comes at a great cost.
