WhiskeyWarrior556 falls victim to New York’s red flag laws
Aerican Thinker ^ | 11/24/2019 | Taylor Day

On Friday, police showed up to a young man’s workplace and tried to arrest him over social media posts reported to them by an old army buddy of the 28-year-old Afghanistan veteran. This man, known as Alex and popular on Instagram under the handle of WhiskeyWarrior556, slipped out of the back door, hurried home to check on his family where he found out police had already forced themselves into his home and confiscated his legal firearms after threatening his wife with calling child protective services to remove her newborn child.

“If you live in a blue state....you open yourself up to this kind of tomfoolery”

For 10 years I lived in a red State, then in Nov. everything changed. Now what do I do? Virginia will never recover.

Just ask people their impression of the term Liberal. Nobody likes them.

If it is on the net, the .gov has a copy.

If you have something, don’t talk about it.

Big Brother is always watching and recording everything you do, see, or walk by connected to a net work.

Act accordingly.

So when will CW-II begin?

It began quite some time ago. It has not yet escalated to the large-scale violence stage. That would take a major recession plus covert or overt assistance from foreign powers to reach full boil. The second item may never happen at all. The first item is inevitable, and likely within the next four years.

Leftists dominate every major city in this country and almost every single cultural and economic institution. What they do not control outright, they can still heavily influence. They aren't going to surrender their positions voluntarily or peacefully, no matter what election outcomes may be.

Sad to say, a very large fraction of the population wants Socialism. They want to believe all those pretty little lies about all the wonderful free stuff they would receive. And it must be somebody else's fault that they are not getting free stuff right now.

Yours.

Your most likely hot civil war date is May, 2025. There is of course a somewhat arbitrary demarcation of such things, and people will quibble endlessly about which violent incident marked the beginning. There will be plenty from which to choose. Check back in 2025 for a follow-up.

He had a 30 round mag which is illegal in that state. He said an old Army buddy snitched him out

The Army 'buddy' told the sheriff that he had PTSD whereupon the sferiff decided with no medical proof or proof of any kind other than this buddys word that an armed response to forcibly detain the veteran to help with his mental problems.

You just have to wonder with the highest ever percentage of PTSD vets being 20 to 25% of these vets from just the iraq/afghan conflicts how many sheriffs it will take now to ensure these guys are not having any mental problems, or owning 30rd magazines.

His mistake was assuming he lives in a free country

“The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office has been inundated with calls and social media messages from citizens expressing concern about a police response in the Town of Carmel,” a Facebook message about the standoff read. “The incident was widely reported to be a law enforcement effort to seize firearms under ‘Red Flag’ laws. This information is incorrect. The law enforcement response and subsequent arrest was related to a domestic violence investigation. The citizen involved is safe and in police custody.”

I lived n VA. For more than 30 years.
Due to a number of things, I moved to Indiana.
Don’t regret it n the least.
Might not suggest... regarding the 2020 census
If you live in a red state add people to your residence.
If you live in a blue state, deduct people.
It could have a huge impact to congressional seats.

Threatening women with taking their children via CPS has become common with various agencies.

Anyone doing so should be charged with extortion and/or violating civil rights under color of law.

That is because children no longer belong to the parents, they are property of the state.

That’s the Marxist plan. Fear is the plan.

These evil people want the defenders of the Constitution to be silenced due to fear.

“We are racing toward the police state.”

The coup against the duly government can be seen is this action: Navy leaders are trying to remove Navy Seal from the elite force in retaliation for President Donald Trump’s decision last week to restore his rank.

Why? Apparently we are satisfied to let an anonymous “whistle blower” unseat a duly elected President.
