Represents something glorious and unstoppable: the democratization of power. No longer is democracy an empty slogan to lull the masses into supporting Establishment Candidate 1 or Establishment Candidate 2. The spread of technology has enabled us to learn, to communicate, and now to act without need for establishment proxies. We are cutting out the middlemen. Surely they will not go gentle into that good night; their increasingly tyrannical behavior reeks of desperation. But do not misunderstand me -- I am not advocating the use of a gun for anything other than recreation or self-defense. I am simply observing that a world where the state is losing its monopoly on violence is sure to be a better one, for only when that monopoly is assured do we witness the rampant thievery, injustice, and bloodshed that the state is uniquely capable of.
