Major League Baseball is investigating a longtime umpire after he sent a tweet threatening to buy an assault rifle over an impeachment inquiry into President Trump, a report said Wednesday.

Umpire Rob Drake wrote on Twitter late Tuesday that he would buy the weapon, “because if you impeach MY PRESIDENT this way, YOU WILL HAVE ANOTHER CIVAL WAR!!! #MAGA2020”, ESPN reported.

NO, you’re forced to accept the suck of an out of control partisan hit-squad wanting to break all laws and precedent to get rid of a president they don’t like. And you have to shut up and just take it.

Oh, and he’s 100% right about the civil war they are trying to start.

You are EXACTLY correct. I don't need any more weapons, I may WANT some, but I don't need them.

I've been making sure I do two things:

1. Go to the shooting range every two weeks and shoot every pistol I have along with my .223 rifle to make sure my aim is good;
2. Buy more ammo than I shoot at the range.

Yes, I'm stockpiling. We know what's coming and those f'n Democrats are going to force a civil war on this country. Y'all better be prepared.

Yep, he sure is and only a fool doesn't know it by now.

Now, shooting his mouth off about it is another thing.

Freepers would do well to work on their shooting skills, stay in practice and buy ammo for what's coming because it IS coming.

"Good God...this is the last thing we need."

I disagree completely.

"What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. the remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it’s natural manure."

Jefferson's Tree of Liberty is nigh unto death, and the swamp dwellers are in dire need of an unequivocal reminder of the Second Amendment's true intent.

When will people learn that social media is not your friend?

Rhetorical question - people are stupid.

Maybe, but if you aren't willing to chop off the head of the Deep State snake, then you're just wasting time going after the pawns.

I'm not convinced that we're at that point just yet.Particularly with Trump in office and highly likely to remain there until January 2025.

This American is 1000% right. The problem is “loose lips”.
