Quickies: Bearding The Lion Dept.

The following may be interpreted as a display of ballsiness, whether or not it was wise:

He is the rarely-seen artist known as Sabo.

His artwork is many times controversial and political in nature.

His Twitter feed is uncensored and some argue his comments can go too far. In fact, a few of Sabo’s recent tweets struck a nerve and got the attention of the United States Secret Service. One of the tweets involved bringing back Harvey Lee Oswald as a zombie.

Please read the whole thing. Then decide for yourself whether actively inviting the attention of Secret Service myrmidons, or any of their federal colleagues, is a wise course of action in these latter days of the Republic That Was. Provoking the authorities can have more consequences than any private citizen can prepare for...including the possibility that some Leftist villain might persuade your local constabulary to "SWAT" you. Two people have already been killed by such tactics.

We are all grasshoppers, and a big part of the problem is none of us will fight the lawnmower. I admire his moxey when so many are sheep, willingly enslaved to the system.
