Does anyone remember the mini series Amerika?

Does anyone remember the mini series Amerika?
Just wondering why it has not been brought up in today's political environment.
Maybe because it was a poor production.

but I swear some bad things are brewing in this country.

I think we are in the eye of the hurricane right now with the right to bear arms, among many other things. It is quiet, too quiet.

Do not forget your fathers, your grandfathers, your great grandfathers.

I like wwjd (what would Jesus do)

what about wwmggd (what would my great grandfather do)

we have been losing since mine was born in 1897.

this will probably get shut down, but right now I don't care.

It will surely be locked if the series ( I never seen it ) wasn't a 2A/RKBA directly related production...
And it is always best to care. That is what TFL is based on... Folks that CARE...

Before this gets locked. What was the series about? What was the message to it and did it attempt to provide answers?

I'm sorry I am going to be stupid now. What does 2A/RKBA mean?

It was about what the United States would be like after 10 years of Soviet Occupation. More it was about the people of the United States giving up everything to keep what little they had. We had political freedom but lost our passion to keep it.

2A is second amendment in the bill of rights and RKBA is Right to Keep and Bear Arms...
