List of atrocities comitted by governments against their people - Let's name them

So every time anyone brings up the idea that some of these school shootings of Las Vegas could be the act of the government, we are immediately screamed down, mocked, ridiculed, etc and told we are stupid and being ridiculous/moronic. Looking at history there are probably COUNTLESS atrocities comitted by the government on their citizens from massacres to starvation to disease infestations to medical testing. Unfortunately there seems to be no limit to the cruelty that a people's own government will commit against their own citizens if it keeps them in power, bolsters their position, weakens opposition, instills fear in the populace. Whatever name we are called whenever we suggest the possibility of government involvement is really a mirrored comment on the person calling the name as they exhibit those exact traits (and worst) of which they are calling people. I'm sure there is some psychological name for this, but IDK what it is.

So, let's name some events and it doesn't matter what country

Waco - storming Branch Davidian compound
Ruby Ridge - ATF killing family after ATF entrapment sting campaign
Holocaust
October Revolution (Bolshevik's attacking the Czar)
Rawanda Genocide

I'm going to do some research on these and go into more detail. I'd like to make a list of things where an armed populace would have made a difference in the situation as well. I'm sure we can find at least 52 of these incidences and possibly 365 as I have an idea on how to help people understand the reason many people will never relenquish their right to bear arms.

And 911 of course...



Heck I could go on for ever but I will save some for the others!

* MK Ultra.
* The Irish Potato Famine: the British government deliberately allowed this to become a large-scale famine as an act of genocide against the Irish people.

Was Ruby Ridge an atrocity? The guy was a member of the Aryan Brotherhood and the World Aryan Congress.

Waco was certainly bad if you were a Branch Davidian.

Not sure either of those rank up alongside genocides... If we want to pick some atrocity inflicted by the US government, what about what has been done to Iraq and Afghanistan? Millions dead.

Sterilization of Native American Women

Let's never forget the genocide brought upon the natives to this land by the European. Killing, raping, slavery, forced changes to their religious beliefs and the outright stealing of there lands.

It's time for the US to give up trying to be a nation of the people and for the people and to give it back to those of us who can call ourselves American Indians.

North Korea - Body Count? Unknown. Gonna go with a ballpark range of 850,000 so far. Assuming they kill at least one person a day.

Since the sanctions are getting worse. Got to conserve ammo.

I would also add the current Genocide that is taking place in South Africa against the White population,

Of course apart from "alternative media" this is being ignored....

South Africa, how to turn a economic success into a third world sh#t hole...

Yes, it was an atrocity. You don't have to like the guy to acknowledgr the severity of the governments actions and the implications they brought with it. And the guy was not AB, nor was he in the World Aryan Congress. He attended a couple white national events, but he was no member. Also, he would have gone peacefully except the government jerked around his court date for illegal firearm sales. It was set almost a year ahead of when they wound up moving it to, and then a government official sent him the wrong court date which stated that it was for a month after it actually was causing him to miss it thereby getting him indicted on missing court. Then it all gets complicated. Sometime later they intended to arrest him covertly, and shot his dog when it started barking. Hence the start of the 11 day event. Sure, he should jave surrendered, but the governmwnt's role is equally as bad. And it speaks to how they might do anyone.

Aaaaand the wara in Iraq and Afghanistan... how do you digure millions? Civillian casualties haven't even come close to one million, lets alone millionS. Also, yes it IS terrible. War is a travesty, but war is war. War is its own subject.

Socialism.

Many Governments have and are perpetrating this atrocity on the citizens of their country. This should be number one in my opinion.

Vietnam...Dioxin comes to mind, people are still being born malformed. While Dow and Dupont concealed the dangers from government, the Military did know at the time was used.

The annexation of the nation of Hawaii.
The way the that foreign affairs are conducted.
The atomic weapons testing.
The forgetting of the lessons of history.

Guess you glossed over the part that we were doing fine and dandy killing ourselves off before anyone white showed up. Torture, slavery, genocide of entire tribes... all happening without outside interference. Ripping out human hearts as a part of a religion. We rocked at that!!!!

Don't pretend to be a victim of something that happened too many years ago.

Become part of the solution, not a rather boring part of the problem. You were not on the trail of tears.
