    Tyrants worry less about armed citizens offing them and more about members of their armed forces doing the task. They have presidential guards to prevent this but this doesn't prevent one of these guardians from taking a shot at him.

    Matt in the hat comes pretty close.
    This was in response to your post.

    I would not cheer.
    I would not be sad about it, but I would not cheer.
    I really don't give a crap about Kim Jong Un.

    Also, there is a huge (yuge) difference between an actual dictator in an actual authoritarian state such as Kim Jong Un/North Korea and a wannabe in a democracy like Donald J. Trump/United States of America.

    I recall a university history professor indicating that all that was needed was a trigger, and it could have been just about anything.
    And another reason was Russia's desire to be more like Western Europe (man, they loved them some French). There was also the threat of the Muslims invading Christian land.

    I guess that’s not implausible, that you used the word “tyranny” in a context where many of us would think of Booth and Lincoln, but didn’t mean anything by it.

    But then there’s your history....

    I'll agree that it's less than good and should only be reserved for the most extreme circumstances, those of which we are not even close to today.

    Stop invoking race in your posts. Join the good guys and I won't have to find out who you really are.

    Several have stated in the past they think the military will follow the President. My "y'all" was directed at you all who have indicated that the military will follow the current President if marshall law is called for.

    The casual use of the language, as indicated by ElJefe, is problematic and really should not defensible.

    Me. And others. I never cheer if somebody is assassinated, no matter if they are loathed or not.

    Between McConnell and Trump, we may have already passed that point. We'll find out when/if the Supreme Court starts weighing in.

    And "science" = sorcery.

    From Wikipedia's page on him: "Mr. Stickland believes vaccines are dangerous, and that his personal belief in God will protect his children from communicable infectious diseases."
