Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

bet no one shows up, and the very first optic the democrat incoming will have is one of martial law, empty streets, no one at the innauguration, razor wire, and a pretorian guard not trusted enough to be armed. '
it's will be a rather depressing display.
Right now they are litmus testing those they tasked with the invasion and occupation of DC in the name of cementing democrat party power, replete with all the regalia and fanfare of a police state.
great showing!
"prepared"
hard to look tough with no magazines in your carbine, an acog inside, and no magazines in your empty plate carrier.
its embarrassing.
"prepared"
green zone checkpoint, no magazine, no armor in the plate carrier, no magazines in the weapon.
Begs the question, if the democrats really think there is a threat, why the paper tiger brigades?
Sun Tzu said: Whoever is first in the field and awaits the coming of the enemy, will be fresh for the fight; whoever is second in the field and has to hasten to battle will arrive exhausted. 2. Therefore the clever combatant imposes his will on the enemy, but does not allow the enemy's will to be imposed on him.

Why would I "be foolish to find out"? I don't like what you are insinuating.
it wont be nor could it be "rectified" they know there will be no problems, and they also don't trust the national guard with live ammo on domestic soil.
"here go protect us, but no fucking way you can have ammo just stand there and look tough with those evil black but empty, rifles. "
