      If we start burning cars, we likely start getting shot. Remember this is the USA we’re talking about here. Maybe it needs to come to that, but don’t judge people for trying to avoid the kind of crackdown Trump would likely enact given any excuse.

    I know it’s in bad taste. But… I wanna imagine everyone is just out there in the cold giving speeches about how bad he is at video games.

    Ok but, Trump literally said this was the plan, and he’s giving permission for all of it. So, I see three options here:

    Either you voted for this, you voted against this, or you didn’t care enough to vote against it and are probably fine with this.

      Well I never voted for it to begin with, but honestly, even the people that were stupid enough to vote for him didn’t really know what the plan was because Trump never actually stated any specific policy goals. That should have been their first clue to not vote for him

      Regardless of vote status, I think it’s important for Americans to exercise their first amendment right to protest anything they wish, including their disapproval of governmental actions.

      It may be too late to right the ship heading for the rocks, but it’s imperative to try.

      and this game-of-blame does help in what way? The People of America need to do something against this lunacy!
