Far-right online forums are seething with references to potential violence and urging supporters of President Trump to bring guns to Wednesday’s protests in Washington — in violation of local laws — as Congress meets to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.
Many of the posts appear to be direct responses to Trump’s demands that his supporters pack the nation’s capital in support of his bogus claims that November’s national vote for Biden resulted from election fraud. Congress’s largely ceremonial role in confirming Biden’s victory has emerged as a catalyst for expected unrest that has D.C. police and the National Guard deploying on city streets to quell potential trouble.
Talk of guns and potential violence is rife on the encrypted messaging app Telegram, the conservative social media site Parler and on thedonald.win, an online forum that previously operated on Reddit before the company banned it in June after years of racism, misogyny, anti-Semitism and calls for violence.
Trump’s tweet last month pushing baseless fraud claims and promoting the “big protest” on Jan. 6 — “Be there, will be wild!” — has become a central rallying cry. It was the top post on thedonald.win Tuesday morning, and anonymous commenters saw it as a call to action: “We’ve got marching orders,” the top reply said. . .MORE AT LINK

“Not a good example for us Trump supporters to sport guns at this rally tomorrow. We will end up looking just like BLM and antifa. Not good at all.’”
Please. Spare us the histrionics and go visit your fainting couch.
OK, Mr. Concern Troll.
What else are you concerned about today?
We can’t wait to hear it!
Pile on guys.
Washington Compost = Rotting garbage
And it’s Ms., not Mr. Or are you an Amen and Awomen kind of guy?
BS
This was already setup last may when we had peaceful marches WITH guns in Michigan protesting the lockdowns.
The Washington Post then said those were extremist and terrorists with all them guns.
Then BLM and AntiFa destroyed whole cities and the Washington Post said those were peaceful and so inspiring and didn’t cause any destruction.
The Washington Post and the NYTimes are trash papers printing trash. They’re nothing more than toilet paper substitutes (and these days have more value as such)
Sure. I’ll pile on. You don’t ask for your rights from a communist who is taking them. You make demands and take them back.
You are a milquetoast who wants to ask and then cower if threatened by the communists. We Americans don’t cower. If guns scare you then you might want to see a doctor and get medicated for what could be coming.
You all look alike.
Dear WAPO:
Are you worried?
You should be.
-Patriots
My, I believe you replied to one of my long ago posts that a joke I made didn’t look good for us Freepers because it was racist. And here you go. Maybe you need a Milky Way bar. You’ve made a mark on us Freepers. Isn’t it nice to know?
Stop it. There will be an incident tomorrow at the rally that will look like a Trump supporter was violent. Whether we Trump supporters are responsible or not. It will probalby happen.
I’m waiting for E. Pluribus Unum to send me the definition of milquetoast now... .
FAKE NEWS!
IT IS THE WASHINGTON COMPOST, AFTER ALL!
I have no idea WTF you are babbling about.
I don’t hold grudges for years over imaginary slights like a psycho.
Evidently you do and are.
It is what the Leftists do however. And they appear to be winning. Of course they have solid protection from the Police and the Courts as well as cover from the Media.
Perhaps we should try something else than what we have been doing. "Peaceful protests" clearly are ineffective, regardless of how many of our people show up.
We need to find the weak link in the Leftists protection forces. I believe that is the Media. They are the "soft targets" who are actually hated by all sides now.
Martyrdom is highly over-rated; let enemies be the martyrs.
In any case, the rally is a huge ambush trap for Patriots. Stay in disciplined groups and respond appropriately to the ambush when it starts. And good luck! Come back afterwards!
They are mostly peaceful threats.
