Congresswoman Ilhan Omar calling on Americans to “take back our democracy” by emulating Hong Kong protests is just the latest episode in Democrats’ slide towards “color revolution” tactics to get power they lost at the ballot box.
“Could we take back our democracy if 1.7 million Americans marched for it?” asked Omar (D-Minnesota) on Sunday, retweeting a video allegedly showing that many Hong Kongers on the march.

The protests shaking the Chinese semi-autonomous territory began at the end of March, over a proposed extradition bill, but have continued long after it was withdrawn, with demonstrators carrying US and UK flags while demanding democracy, freedom and human rights. This has led the Chinese authorities and much of the public to believe the protests amount to Western-backed “color revolution.”
To Omar, however, the protesting Hong Kongers are just a prop: her actual target is US President Donald Trump. Nor is this the first time a Democrat has called for radical tactics to oust Trump. The self-styled “Resistance” has been at it from the moment he won the 2016 presidential election.

I was one of 1.7 million in Washington D.C. 9/12/2009 trying to stop the Kenyan from Indonesia from turning our entire government against US.

Armed or not ?
if everyone that agreed with the PMS squad revolted tomorrow, you could fit the entire mob in a mini-cooper
There is a key fact being omitted here: The Hong Kong people are protesting FOR freedom. Ilhan Omar is hoping enough leftists will rise up (violently) to impose a dictatorship.
One of the signs on Sept. 12, 2009 that I saw said, “We came unarmed, this time”
This isn’t a democracy you terrorist twit!

These anarchists don’t believe in the American system!!!
Isn’t attempting to incite insurrection like uh, AGAINST THE LAW ??!!
DJT could get the crowds for that. Omar could not. The whole squad couldn’t.
The squad is aligned with Mao not the people of Hong Kong
Exactly. We are not a democracy. We are a constitutional republic.
Politicians of both parties almost always erroneously call us a democracy.
Itching to get themselves killed.
The Democrats are pretty much having their own civil war right now.
