How in the dickens did this borderland militia wind up with 240,000 pistol-packers defying the current Commander in Chief? Sure, they operate a long way from DC as if in a foreign land subject to nothing more than local mullahs running a funding racket to fight an endless war on phantoms hardly differing from them, maybe in cahoots to simulate conflict when what actually exists is a backscratching plan to fleece the suits hunkered in marble palaces.

Law enforcers rely upon criminals to see that peace is never at hand, threat is ever increasing, hires and budgets got to grow, that's the law of diminishing returns for maximizing investments, national security a dire necessity to protect a fragile nation.

So be it, millions upon millions of valorous military, police, guards, prosecutors, lawyers, informers, spies and their vast support systems are as American as Mom's Apple Pie. Uniforms, weapons, equipment, jails, walls, incomprehensible laws, periodic casualties and lots of victims, let these be forever essential to the United States of America promise to never be like that mass imprisonment of civilized nations.
