Waiting for an atrocity

With the attack on the Cities Church, the Minnesota Nice lefties have crossed a clear line. They’re no longer tribunes of the people, defenders of the oppressed, or speakers of truth to power. No…. now they’re living a dream. They’re giving full expression to their fantasy lives as Bolsheviki storming the Winter Palace, Red Guards liquidating the bourgeoisie, and Khmer Rouge cutting down everybody they come across, with all that implies -- terror, violence, destruction, and bloodshed.

So we hear the cries of “why won’t Trump do something…” Why doesn’t he make his move? Why doesn’t he send in the 101st the way Ike did? Why doesn’t he federalize the state National Guard? Why doesn’t he declare martial law, clean out the streets, and send the cosplay Bolshis back to their dorms?

The answer to that it simple: he needs an atrocity.

Now, from our point of view, this has already happened, and in spades. Since the Renee Good shooting (in which as we know, though too many others don’t, an ICE agent was run down and sent to the hospital) we have seen plenty. We have seen ICE officers attacked with shovels, iceballs, bottles, and explosives. We’ve seen hotels besieged and shut down. We’ve seen ordinary citizens stopped, interrogated, and threatened in the streets for driving a doubleplusungood SUV (more Red Guard cosplay here.) We’ve seen government vehicles wrecked and looted, including the theft of an FBI rifle – by a Tren de Agua member, no less. We’ve seen the lefties assault and severely beat one of their own. (He was rescued by ICE agents. Of course he was.) And we’ve seen a church disrupted in the middle of services, its congregation and pastor abused and threatened, with Don Lemon, that stalwart successor to Edward Murrow, present

Team Trump is definitely waiting for the Minnesota Marxist Mafia to overplay it’s hand.

Risky strategy.

[SMARTY]

Typically, that's the cue for some sub-human, ruthless and wholly unaccountable monster to step in and hyjack the whole thing.

Freedom and autonomy will be a thing of the past!

The Trump administration is gathering forces for a simultaneous nation wide assault on all the sanctuaries.

The results are going to be overwhelming in scope. The number of arrests is going to be beyond comprehension.

Yeah.
Let me know when it happens

If you're waiting for these twisted, malignant lunatics to be treated the way democrats treat their political opponents, with pre-dawn SWAT raids, search warrants that tear houses apart, leaving the occupants shivering in the cold and dark handcuffed in their nighties, while their computers, phones, and paper records are boxed and carried away, before they themselves are shoved into the backseats of cruisers and carted off to jail to wait weeks and months without bail for their arraignments, this is you.

[4Runner]

State of siege. Internments. Please.

Actually, I'd prefer interments. But I'll take what I can get.

[Lurker]

I most fervently hope you’re right.

I’m going to cheer when, and if, it happens.

Minnesota Nice has become Minnesota Nut Case. Whatever feelings of good cheer and friendliness may have once existed, have left for the Left Coast and Somalia, poisoned by ideology and a supercilious righteousness that hinges on the harshest of emotion and mob rule.

Adult White Female Ultra Liberal = AWFUL, and that in ways difficult to describe in only a few words.

“Always remember, the left does not have a plan for after the revolution.
Their plan IS revolution!”

They remind me of the dog that chases cars with no plan for what to do if they catch one. The mentality is also on the dog-chase-car level as well. Not that I’m trying to insult dogs.

[dfwgator]

The job of the Left is to forment the chaos, that leads to the new order.

Then they’ll find out the hard way, they won’t be a part of that new order.

Risky strategy.

What isn't these days.

The fraud and criminality are just out of control

At some point, you have to take a stand and Minnesota is the ideal place to start.

Minnesota seems to have become a hub for Democrat fraud, human trafficking and criminality The fraud and theft is in the. billions and are fraudsters are just out of control. Much of the stolen money has gone overseas to fund terrorism.

The Somalis who are behind much of the fraud are some of the most corrupt, criminal, disgusting and least sympathetic people on the planet.

They are already disliked and resented by the vast majority of people in Minnesota. Try as they will, the media is not going to make them victims.

Minnesota nice is a real thing and most of the people in Minnesota are good ,law abiding folks .

This is not an LA where the illegal aliens are a dominant force that is easily supported by cartels and thugs.

The bad guys in Minnesota are a minority that can be isolated and dealt with and Minnesota is remote enough that it is tough for the Democrats to reinforce with their thugs.

Minnesota is the ideal place to take a stand and start retaking our country.

Be careful and hold on tight. Falling off the bandwagon can hurt pretty bad

“Suicide by cop for the greater good of the team.”

I saw a video of one of these nuts approaching Border Patrol with his phone in his hand pointing it like a gun. Fortunately no one took the bait.

“Risky strategy.”

The greater the risk the greater the reward.

Usually.
