Crybully Spring
Politics as Unusual ^ | 3-16-2016 | Otto Lamp

Posted on 03/16/2016 12:11:12 PM PDT by Brookhaven

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
