GOP Congressman Warns Nation Headed to Civil War
Gateway Pundit ^ | 6-24-18 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 06/24/2018 6:14:44 PM PDT by Proud White Trump Supporter

Rep. Steve King posted a warning on Twitter Sunday evening that the U.S. is heading toward a second civil war, comparing the present day actions of the anti-Trump resistance to the run-up to the Civil War.

King, an eight-term Congressman from Iowa, keyed off a PJ Media article about leftist protesters shutting down a Portland, Oregon ICE office and taking down the U.S. flag, replacing with an “Refugees Welcome” flag.

“America is heading in the direction of another Harpers Ferry. After that comes Ft. Sumter.”

Cut the cities off and starve them.

We need to try to defeat them at the ballot boxes while that option is still open.

That's the real value in Rep. King pointing out that the left is instigating civil war. The conservatives can rally around peaceful law and order.

>>the progressives are equating themselves to anarchists.

Communists became Progressive so they wouldn’t have to become bomb-throwing anarchists to break down the social order.

Obama told them to stop being patient. Their days of being “Progressive” are coming to an end and their inner Bolshevik is emerging. There are only two possible outcomes now.

Rural areas will be the first place that the ‘smarter than average’ looter zombies will target.

That's been disproven by decades of events. The zombies mostly want the nice malls, not some Dollar Store in West Bumf*ck.

Tyrants, those who are obsessed with power and control over all others, will not stop.

Moving this or that around isn’t going to matter.

They want to eat your freedom.

It’s who they are.

Forgot to mention something. My training was from the end of the 1980s through the mid-1990s, and I was in my thirties. And yes, we could easily have cleaned up any small groups of evil insurrectionists using fast mobility.

But much has changed in our U.S.A. since then. Very much.

These are the tactics of the incipient brown shirt nazis. They will hunt in packs. Street gangs will be their muscle. Flash mobs will be their methodology at least initially. Foreign invaders will be their reinforcements. The marxists believe themselves ready. I hope many of the people who have been duped by the marxists are waking up. We will know this election, unless the illegal aliens skew the vote to the marxists. I had hopes for the article V COS but the marxists have enough assets in state legislatures to prevent its implementation. Cities and now States are moving to open rebellion. Sadly, I must agree, absent Divine intervention, it’s not if, it’s when.

He’s right. There’s no living with these people.

Funny, that is how Gen Lee often referred to the Federals as "Those people".

What I want to know is why is Steve King the ONLY Rep in DC, or anywhere, even talking about this violent rhetoric of the left??

Where are cRuz and Lee and Randy and all of the other so called conservatives??

Laughing their butts off at the insults and anger being hurled at Trump admin and supporters??

No, not headed, already underway. Just read and listen to the daily media reports.

I’m referring to them targeting personal homes way out in rural areas. That’s what I’d do with a gang of 6-10 heavily armed thugs because I’d be smart enough to know that the urban areas are too much trouble with all of the competition.

I think that state governments will need to get involved before it will result in anything but riots of leftists burning down their own cities.

Some civil war.

Then again, I’m a hopeless optimist sometimes.

“....You really think the President of the United States would allow a civil war to happen? ...”

No. I think he’d try his very best to avoid it. I also believe he would NOT side with the communists/globalists/socialists and those that would attempt to violently overthrow us either. He would be forced into Marshal Law. Conservatives would definitely side with POTUS in such a scenario and follow his orders. We are NOT starting this crap, they are the ones pushing us to the brink, and at some point we WILL be forced push back if the rule of law is not enforced. Sessions needs to get off his dead azz or be replaced asap.

Good point about Trump’s GOPe friends. Especially Senator Lee, who hates Trump.

Trump is alone, he’s got us & a few others like House members Nunes & Jordan.

“I wonder if these squishy libs understand how badly they’re outgunned?”

But they think that their “pink knit vagina hats” will protect them!

The first shots were already fired by the Democrats at a congressional baseball practice field in DC.

Remember - the Democrats voted against God at their convention.

No shots more clear than that.

>>They’ll be defeated swiftly.
*******************************
If just the snowflakes had to be defeated, yes.

Let’s remember who is behind them, organizing and funding them.

They have centuries of worldwide uber-wealthy infrastructure in place. They can track every movement made, and advanced technology more than we can fathom.

They have a scorched earth mindset.

It will not be a swift victory for us. But it will be epic, and with divine intervention, have a victory of Goodness.
