How can the liberals go to war against the people who own most of the guns?

I was curious to see how the libs would react to DJTs election; FBI Gun-Sale Background Checks Fall 16% In December

“A Historical”. Drives me nuts seeing that written and spoken. Sorry, but it does.

Good article, though.

In the past the poorest weren’t the most likely to be obese like they are now. That’s something that has never happened before. It’s hard for me to picture them choosing the hardship sustained unrest would bring as things stand now.

And most of the experience in functioning wearing MOPP gear. American wars are always all out, so there is virtually no chance that won’t be needed on a larger scale than the puny attempted invasion of Syria.

“I am sick and tired of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell.”

History teaches two equally important lessons about war:
1. War is always terrible.
2. Sometimes failure to go to war is even worse.

We would do well to keep both lessons in mind.

But of course, this collapse is likely to shatter the world outside itself as it collapses.

It is possible to head off through determination. The Philippines is doing what it takes now.

Charlie Daniels: It’s Only a Matter of Time Before There Is Blood on the Streets

I see young people interviewed on television who can't even articulate the reason they are protesting. Others bent on destruction who probably espouse no cause but chaos.

I've seen hysterical protestors screaming about First Amendment rights which they seem to think only protect them and those who think like them and that the opposition has no First Amendment protection and should be shouted down at all costs.

The rhetoric is becoming hotter and more nonsensical, the radical element more apparent, the violence and destruction of property more common place.

The pot is boiling and it’s only a matter of time before there will be blood on the streets.

At this point it could go either way and the left is showing signs of being more psychotic; not less.

I think that any speculation doesn’t begin to be plausible without looking at where federal, state, and municipal legislative bodies might weigh in. They make and enforce the laws and control the purse strings. Then there’s the US military, federal and state militias, and police organizations. How all of these entities might split would determine how everything else would fall into place.

I just read a whole thread at Reddit on a Korean Shopkeeper’s AMA, just for the memories.

Try and think of it as your opportunity to go all “Korean Shopkeeper” on some looters.

The reaction to this latest election is straight out of some third world hellhole script. Other than trying to overthrow with force
