Re: proposal to repeal the 22nd amendment
I'm confused - did it pass? Or is it just being requested?
The first vehicles normally on the scene of a crime are ambulances and police cruisers. If you are armed you have a chance to decide who gets transported in which vehicle, if you are not armed then that decision is made for you.
Be prepared, because someone else already is and no one knows their intent except them.

Re: proposal to repeal the 22nd amendment
Anyone supporting the measure to repeal the 22nd is downright a traitor and should be shot on sight. With the 22nd gone, it is only a short step to "President for Life" or Dictator.
