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.”

Liberals don’t own guns.

It wouldn’t last long.

Politician shouldn't be a career choice.

Terrible dilemma, if it were to happen.

In decades past, I was a soldier in a combat unit of the National Guard in one of the states. There were only a few battalions counting regulars. The remainder in the regular Army, Guard and Reserve were trained to provide various services other than combat.

There were tens of thousands more civilian hunters around us in that state. They were our friends and neighbors.

About 94% of us in the few combat units were very poor with marksmanship as compared with rural, civilian hunters. As with others of some rural background, I’d learned to be better than most with ballistics while finishing growing up and living early adult years in rural areas. Qualifying with high scores on the ranges of Army posts was easy from the first time. Same with tactical considerations. We National Guardsmen were very noisy, obtrusive and clustered together.

But we did lean more conservative and old fashioned than the average person in the population around us. In our initial training under the regular Army, we were first instructed on the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

We were taught to refuse to follow any unlawful order issued by anyone. That was emphasized. A quotation of the Enlisted soldier’s oath follows.

I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.” (Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962).

Patriot Fire Teams. Get 3 like minded buddies and train squad level tactics. Coordinate fire, movement, and communication. A four man squad using a Suppressive Fire element and a Maneuver Element will cut a mob to pieces.

I think that their handlers want nothing more than to see a small massacre. Guess who they and the media would blame.

I note how silent Schumer and Pelosi are about violence. They are not interested in peaceful protest or respect.

Consequences are very messy things.

I work in a very large east coast university....so you can imagine how bad it is.

I love the job, been there close to 30 years. 90% of the people there are hard left. The only good thing is they suspect everyone who works there are like them, so I don’t really get any personal flack.

As for their motivation....years of propaganda. They just live in a bubble.

This is primarily due to Sessions’ DOJ standing down.

The President nominated him. Even I know one could not wring any work out of someone ensconced in the Senate for 30 years.

Trump's worst mistake so far.

Those rifle squads report to POTUS. We are on the side of the POTUS. Those rifle squads will be on our side. Libs are insane.

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