This indicates to me that you have no idea how desperate people become in a failed state, in the absence of law and order.

I've lived in a failed state. The US government brutalized me far worse.

In the failed state I joined a militia, and we actually were able to fight off the people trying to brutalize us. In the USA if you tried this they would just insta Waco you.
