On the Fact that (According to British Historian, J.R. Western) it Was Only After the Monarchs of England (Circa the Late 17th Century) a) Outlawed Militias, b) Confiscated the Citizens' Guns, c) Developed the Bureaucratic Machinery to Tax its People, and d) Created a Standing Army that the Country Began Waging What Ultimately Became Global Wars

You'd think that this would be a cautionary tale but when you have statist and dumb as a fucking stump Presidents like Teddy Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson, and George W. Bush, it apparently isn't, huh?....................................................................................................P.S. And, yes, it probably should be pointed out that this trend in England actually started with the dictator and genocidal madman, Oliver Cromwell (please check out the fine book, "To Hell or Barbados" by Sean O'Callaghan to learn more about this asshole) but that it didn't reach a fever-pitch until William the Third, Charles the Second, and James the Second took over. For the record.
