Dangerous, Threatening Rhetoric is the Tactic of Tyrants
The Truth About Guns ^ | June 24, 2021 | Theresa Inacker

Posted on 06/25/2021 2:17:18 PM PDT by CheshireTheCat

Only tyrants threaten the use of force against their own people. On Wednesday, President Biden remarked, “If you wanted or if you think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons.”

This is reminiscent of California’s infamous Chinese-spy-bedding Congressman, Eric Swalwell’s threats via Twitter back in 2018, when he said about a hypothetical war against gun owners, “And it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes….”

Both references to nuclear weapons is designed to do one thing: to intimidate America’s armed populace.

Drilling down, the core question is why do these politicians distrust the people with the arms the Constitution guarantees their right to keep and bear? What are they doing, or planning, that makes civilian disarmament a priority? If civilian gun ownership isn’t a threat, why are lawful gun owners constantly conflated with criminals, scapegoated for crimes they didn’t commit, and their rights under incessant, incremental attack?

The reason is the power of an armed civilian populace is not to be underestimated, and they know it.

All men have the potential to be tyrants. As Aristotle warned . . .

Why would Biden even say this? They know their house of cards is fragile and they are scared…

Any government that doesn’t trust it’s citizens
to be armed is an untrustworthy partner.

Well, Joetato, I'd say it's a good thing you've got F-15s and nukes.

I would consider this a direct threat on the American People.
No leader should ever make threats on its people.
