Should I go buy an AR-15?

128. I would move.

You will be outgunned and will more than likely die if a hot shooting war comes your way. That is assuming your area is overall really red.

Regardless of the outcome of the election, I cannot see myself ever moving back to the US unless there are massive, sweeping, systemic changes, changes that I cannot see gappening. More than likely I will renounce my citizenship as I am also not into double taxation. I am now at an income level where this is a reality, and I already pay a shedload here in Sweden. Fuck if the US is going to grab more, and especially as it is 100% foreign earned. I only lived in the US for 2 other years (see below for the first 18 months or so), and that was as a uni student. The US is the only remotely advanced nation on the planet that taxes foreign earned income.

My state of birth (I was born in Los Angeles and was moved back to London at less than 2 years of age by my UK citizen, non American parents) is burning like Hades and will only get worse as global.warming increases. Plus the country is in course for civil war within 20 years max, IMHO, regardless of who wins in 2020. A Rump steal, plus Rethug Senate hold, and a take back of the House would just speed that all up. As a mixed race black married lesbian, the US offers far more threats than benefits for me and my wife at this point. The quality of life jere is simply better on balance. 400-600 million guns on the US streets alone is damn near an a priori deal breaker. Rando, ultra violent, white power MAGAts are another.

Best of luck, whatever you choose.
