I'm hopeful that our Constitution/Bill of Rights is better than the Maginot Line.
I am not and have never been a LEO. My avatar is in honor of my friend, Dallas Police Sargent Michael Smith, who was murdered along with four other officers in Dallas on 7.7.2016.

Re: Another Meme Thread
That picture is at least a century out of date. Here's a more recent one.
"Eastern European intellectuals, reading 1984 in clandestine editions, were amazed to find that its author had never visited the Soviet Union. How, then, had he captured its mental and moral atmosphere? By reading its propaganda, and by paying attention..."

Re: Another Meme Thread
The only relevant part of the Constitution at this point is the Second Amendment. The legislative, judicial and executive branches have been trampling the Constitution for decades. Much like the Germans invaded around the Maginot line, the Progressive Socialists and Globalist Republicans have been invading the freedom and liberty of Americans by ignoring the Constitutional lines that should have been restraining them.
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

I got that map from the guy who drew it and had posted it on Twitter. I told him that he should add a curved arrow going from east to west, curving around the top of the maginot line and going through Luxembourg and Belgium into the maginot line’s rear, and title it “The Commerce Clause”.

Re: Another Meme Thread
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
