Last year Oregon, USA nearly joined @mobbs list. At one point a state Senator told the Governor, who had threatened to send state police to arrest him, 'Send bachelors, and make sure they're heavily armed.'

Sen. Boquist had been a paramilitary, and this was not an idle threat. The Governor backed down, and all is rosewater and hugs now. Not really. The AGW alarmist propaganda encouraged the left to seek carbon taxes that threatened to depopulate rural Oregon, and if they seek to do so again, the political situation in Oregon may well devolve.

I expect this is the situation in more places than it's not today.
