You're right. Shooting some politician at a rally or something would definitely unite me and my fellow Germans under a common vision of privacy and sovereignty.

Or maybe we already share the same ideas about everything already. All the time we just lacked the guns so we can all meet with them and take our government hostage or something like that. I assume there even wouldn't be any superior military presence around if that happened.
Intriguing thoughts, I guess we'll never find out.
