Been tried in '68 with not so great results ...

There is a report on Brietbart here that a radial group calling itself Democracy Spring is planning on organizing "the largest civil disobedience action of the century" in hopes creating national chaos.
Obviously, they are modeling their effort after 2011's Arab Spring (the fact they don't realize what an unmitigated disaster the Arab Spring was should clue you in to their cluelessness). Hence their nom de guerre: Democracy Spring. I believe another name is more appropriate:
Crybully Spring
Because, that is exactly they are--crybullies. They are failing to get their way at the ballot box. Rather than respect the results of millions of Americans voting, they prefer to overturn those results via threats and intimidation.
We saw this crybully phenomenon last Friday, as numerous people disrupted the Trump event in Chicago--an event that would have gone on without incident, save for their interference. And, when the event went South, who did they blame: Trump. Not the people who actually disrupted the event and caused the commotion, but Trump.
This is how crybullies work. They create a problem, and when you push back in an effort the minimize the damage the crybully is causing, they accuse you of being the problem.
We've only seen the beginning of the left's crybully activy this election cycle. It is important we not allow them to claim the high moral ground via some rhetorical trick; by labeling themselves "Democracy Spring." There is nothing democratic or open-minded about their movement. It is totalitarian, fanatical, and tyrannical.
It is Crybully Spring.
Works for me.
A domestic ‘color revolution’.
Call it, Gray Pinstripe.
I call it the dull grey of totalitarianism!
The elites would create an Orwellian world a la 1984 - it almost seems like that’s their template.
It’s gonna be 24/7 eight years straight of this childish lunatic nonsense.
We better start getting used to now..
I bet 95% of them could use some Irish Spring.
I would guess it won’t happen where I live. There is a high percentage of CCW around my parts. Pretty much everybody I know carries.
Time to just bust heads.
The Arab Spring was such a success, democracy was restored to all countries, college tuition is free, puppies and kitty kisses for all. Yes, let’s have a country wide democracy Spring... my big arse.
Maybe we should be throwing pacifiers at the crybullies.
That just might be good idea. Start throwing pacifiers at them. There’s no way it will hurt, and it will get them crying like a howler monkey.
Lovely. A target rich environment.
YET progressives still call themselves the tolerant and peace loving beat nicks.
City life is good breeding for bad people.
