[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Literally, the more I think about it the more ironic it is. Liberal law and order policy driving up private gun ownership. Could there be anything more ironic than everyone feeling like they are basically responsible to be their own little sheriff? Not exactly the socialist utopia.[/quote] This seems to be true across the board. Liberals seem to have (un)wittingly or perhaps naively adopted libertarian policies and either deny that their policies result in the consequences they don’t like or result to what are effectively libertarian talking points, telling people that their concerns are their own to deal with regarding public antisocial behavior. The obvious outcomes are that who don’t like living in proximity to antisocial leave and are replaced by people who do or are not replaced at all and the people who stay begin to take actions, like obtaining guns, building fences and walls, that further diminishing the civic space. It’s a negative feedback loop that they either refuse to admit or blame on people they don’t like for causing. When the cause was themselves and their bad politics. [/quote] Yes, the policies enacted are simplistic in nature, lack a big picture view and do not take secondary and tertiary impacts into consideration. They then wonder why their anticipated utopia isn’t achieved. Instead things get worse because they miss the obvious outcomes tha even a child could see coming. All of a sudden you have a death spiral. Happening in cities across the country. [/quote]
