I have forwarded your politically-correct agitprop response to the Eh-Team. Don’t call them. They’ll call you.

A police officer is a weapon.

A soldier is a weapon.

These are weapons wielded by the state that kill vastly more victims than common criminals with guns or blades. VASTLY MORE by massive orders of magnitude.

People are intimidated by the tools when they should be concerned about the weapons.

Then: “Let them eat cake.”

Now: MAKE them eat cake.

“Let them eat cake” is a very old journalist meme about government indifference to the horrible suffering it causes to the impoverished people.

“Let them eat cake” is the traditional translation of the French phrase “Qu’ils mangent de la brioche”, said to have been spoken in the 18th century by “a great princess” upon being told that the peasants had no bread. The phrase “let them eat cake” is conventionally attributed to Marie Antoinette, although there is no evidence that she ever uttered it, and it is now generally regarded as a journalistic cliché. The French phrase mentions brioche, a bread enriched with butter and eggs, considered a luxury food. The quote is taken to reflect either the princess’s frivolous disregard for the starving peasants or her poor understanding of their plight.

Like many other memes and political slogans, it is falsely attributed to someone who actually didn’t say it.

So we have gone from, “Let them eat cake” to “Make them eat cake [bugs]” as a political meme used by journalists and agitators to promote an agenda of faux resistance.

I grant you absolution my son.

Thanks for letting us know you have access. A friendly mercenary may be black-bagging you for a Cadillac ride shortly.

One can find little quips like this in Usenet archives:

This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, “f*** around and find out.” Brutal.

What is it with these perps carrying machetes? A machete is for toting around in the woods and brush, not downtown. And threatening police with a machete is a real stupid move and removes all sympathy for the suspect. Just dumb.

On the same site a Canadian suspect fled across the border into USA and was captured by the Washington State Patrol. This genius also had a machete. What gives?
