Private property is more important than human lives, got it 👍🏻
It's never said openly, but quite literally, yes.
After all, food is a commodity. Housing is a commodity. Hell, healthcare in the US is privatized. If you can't pay, you're often screwed.
Not to mention sweatshops, pollution, improper disposal of waste, worsening climate change, supporting wars for money...
The list goes on. Our world is run by the principle of "private properly is more important than lives".
And as everybody knows the penalty for stealing, even so much as a stick of bubble gum, is death by firing squad
In the conservative brain, yes. Exactly.
OK wait hold on, serious question, who the FUCK is behind him? UCP pattern was completely phased out of the army years ago. I can sort of make out "state" something on the name tape that usually says branch, and there definitely isn't an American flag patch anywhere.

You just sent me down a rabbit hole of US state militia history, and now I feel like the 2d Amendment actually makes sense—people were expected to have their own weapons so they could be called by the state into militia duty if needed. Our current 2A precedent is so far off base it’s insane.

I get the feeling that if there is something going on in this political climate where looting is happening chances are the looters will be armed for protection and that if DeSantis's compensation army starts firing, they might be surprised.
That fucking little pussy can't aim.
