I think this thread has perverted itself enough that I am no longer grossly off topic.
I haven't posted a picture and real name, mainly because I don't think I have actually helped in any important way.
I also kinda don't want any of you to know who I really am. In fact its really not any of you I'm worried about. You all seem like pretty cool dudes.
Its just that I keep playing the scenarios over in my head, and as much as I'd like to believe that the US will do what the USSR did when they finally realized they were irrelevant, and calmly dissolved. I'm not convinced. I think there will be bloodshed.
Perhaps we will be given a new class of sub humans to hate, or perhaps they will recycle the same old bogey men that have served them so well the last 15 years.
Either way my ultimate responsibility is the protection and preservation of my family. I could care less for my life or my sacred honor. I have no wish to fight, and no need to win. I just want to not be trampled.
