This past Saturday afternoon, a nutjob took a shot at President Trump. The shooter's first shot grazed Trump's right ear. If that bullet had been 4-6" to the right, it would have gotten Trump in the "apricot," the section of the head, amazingly enough, the size of an apricot, where the Medulla oblongata (that regulates heartbeat, breathing, all the other autonomous functions of the body) connects to the actual brain in the skull and relays to the spinal column. Hitting that would have been an instant and total "lights out" for the president.
Jordan B. Peterson is the most recent speaker of this truth:
“A harmless man is not a good man. A good man is a very, very dangerous man who has that under voluntary control.”― Jordan B. Peterson
This is what a gentleman is, a dangerous man who has his violence under voluntary restraint. Being an "old school" gentleman requires politeness, because otherwise you have to back up your words with steel. Being a gentleman does not preclude you from being an asshole, a cad or a boor. It means you can dish out violence on command, but you don't unless the occasion has no other resolution.
With our civilization today, where violence is abhorred, the term "gentleman" means exactly the harmless man. Because these men are incapable of violence, their perception cannot comprehend true gentlemen, or "The Men who Wanted to be Left Alone," or what they are capable of. With the attempt on Trump, we are on the verge of stirring these men. When they put down their whiskey and cigars to pick up their rifles, it will be too late.
The most terrifying force of death comes from the hands of Men who Wanted to be Left Alone.
They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over.
The moment the Men who Wanted to be Left Alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these Men who Wanted to be Left Alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives.
They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people's door, and they will cry, scream and beg for mercy... but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the Men who just Wanted to be Left Alone.
If you, or anyone you know have publicly expressed your disappointment that Trump survived, SHUT UP, SIT DOWN and BE SILENT. You have stirred the 600 year-old dragon. If you do as I say, he will go back to sleep. If you poke him any further, you will find out that you are crunchy and good with catsup. I do not mean that to be flippant, or sarcastic. I seriously mean you will be spit-roasted alive and put on TikTok to serve as a warning to the next ten generations that some acts have too high a cost. You don't want to cross this fence.
