"law" of physical access

to be honest disasters like this are just about what I expected from the outgrowing surveillance and police infrastructure between the NSA, CIA, and increased militarization of police forces. it's strange to me that opposition to such trends have turned out stifled overall. the version of US history where the civil war was a thing that happened ~150 years ago and the resulting division has buffed out into a unified country. though recent events have made it clear that the anti-egalitarian motives of the confederacy have not been extinguished, but instead have been seething and waiting to upend this social order they find an affront when an opportunity for it presents itself
