"Every law and every election is useful. We were promised that criminals would stop using firearms in Washington State. In theory, criminals would stop using guns because they could not pass the new mandatory background check. In practice the new law didn’t stop crime at all. Armed robberies continue in Seattle. I’m sure you’re stunned, but armed bank robberies continue in Tacoma too. Crime didn’t even slow down after the initiative went into effect. Who would have imagined that violent criminals wouldn’t obey the next gun law!? I’m sure the naive Washington voter is shocked." ... |

as in bill gates, who hasn't spent a dime in his home state, but a little in New Mexico and impoverished border states plus Africa: failing badly in the latter, no projects met their goals which he admitted...trend as old as the hills, my 77yo relative was in high school when we sent agri agronomist professors to india, pakistan to teach them how to farm better: as soon as we left, they'd resume their ancient hand tool methods...the us army also experienced similar in vietnam trying to get the farmers to man, service and shoot from PT boats, but didn't even farm with tractors, used water buffalo, were mechanically clueless, boats would be inop when we left..

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
