Aaaand that's why the country is jacked up.
@blkgunsmattr You often see PEW PEW PEW PEW ad-infinitum but rarely a magazine being changed. After about 10,000 rounds they suddenly run out of ammo 🙄
"Student Driver" magnets and stickers are popping up everywhere lately, so we had to offer one of those as well.
Have an idea for a magnet, sticker, coffee mug or T-shirt? Share it here. We just might have it available by sundown 😎

2 Party System: That's what created the mess. Nope.
Convention of States: Think about the "experts" in every other thing. Those will be the people that will rewrite the constitution. Every sales pitch for a convention of States limits it to one issue, but there are many many issues used in the sales pitch depending on to whom it is being pitched. And there is absolutely nothing to prevent the entire Constitution from being rewritten and reflecting the 1970s Soviet constitution. That, my friend, is a trap.
A third party sounds like a really good option, until you learn about ballot access laws. Great idea on paper, nearly impossible to implement in reality.
Insurrection is probably the worst idea. If you overthrow the government, seize power, to secure that power you'll have to implement martial law that would be worse than anything that has ever been done before in this country.
We will eventually have elections. The same people that voted in the current miscreants will show up and vote for new people just like them, creating a brand new mess that smells exactly the same. Garbage in, garbage out.
I suggest a fifth option: Hearts and minds first. Return to fundamental principles. The basics. Life, liberty, property, pursuit of happiness, freedom of conscience. No man above the law. Equal rights for all, special privileges for none. Stuff like that.
Random, personal thought:
After months of re-learning how to market a business online in this modern day technocratic world, I sit here amazed at how much of it is monetized rhetoric.
Those who compete for likes, clicks and engagement don't seem to be the main benefactors as much as the behind-the-scenes network that influences the influencers.
Setting the premise.
Controlling the narrative.
Literally manufacturing thought.
Every monetized profile is both an outlet and source of data.
This emerging culture could potentially be as dangerous to free-thinking as the various "-isms" that seize ownership of thought by force and coercion.
Stay free, my friends. Stay free.
