Protests Reveal The New Civil Rights Issue: Ignoring The Will Of The Majority [Townhalls]
Right Wing News ^ | August 7, 2009 | Melissa Clouthier

The Left, exasperated by being thwarted both without and within, have taken to distortion, demonizing, and violence. Discussion not allowed.

This is expected.

Conservatives and small government types, have had it. The press has been in the business of painting those on the Right as psychotic, baby-killing, meanies. If you doubt the bias, tell me how many soldiers have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan since President Obama took office. Yeah, suddenly body counts don't count. They don't fit the narrative. So of course, the press will lie about the protests. Nothing much new here.

But it hasn't only been the press. For six years, Republicans controlled the House and had an evenly divided Senate and Republican president. And still, the government expanded. It wasn't just war spending that did this. Big fat government freebie programs like the Prescription Drug Benefit passed under President Bush did this. Wars come and go. Entitlement programs live forever.

Conservatives and libertarians wondered why they should vote Republican. Some didn't. Some just did not vote. Others voted for Ralph Nader or Bob Barr. And some disgruntled conservatives and libertarians voted for Barack Obama because they hoped for change.

The most bitter pill is being swallowed by those in the latter category. For now, they see the government expanding exponentially bigger. The growth of the government is so staggering, the average person can't comprehend the scope and the size. They can only feel the oppressive magnitude.

So, when the cameras turn onto the faces of average Americans, and the people watching see themselves in those faces and those faces are portrayed as "mobs", the people get angrier. This is not a group who has been content for a long time.(continued)

We are on the verge of something, but I don't think anyone can predict what it is.

Correctamundo... We are steering into deep, and uncharted waters, at flank speed. What will happen from this point on, is anybody's guess, but I *do* have a very bad feeling about it all...

We aren’t on no verge, we are thick in it. CW2 has already started, the current course is unsustainable, the only question is whether it will be a shooting war or a quiet revolution. I’m hoping quiet revolution, but the crystal ball sure gets murky after that.

I just worry that whether or not Health Care passes, the masses will go back to sleep.

After having 30 years to indoctrinate a generation of kids with their liberal earth worshipping hate America theology, the far left really thought their time was now. They got a smooth talking, racially perfect puppet to pretend to unite us, all while planning their very divisive attempts at complete control of the peons. What they failed to realize, that even the most indoctrinated video watching lazy college kid who takes remedial courses, still wants FREEDOM!!! To sit and do nothing and get a government check or to reach for the stars and become the next Bill Gates. This is about FREEDOM, pure plain and simple. If Washington gets us to give up our freedoms on this massive a basis, this country becomes no better than Zimbabwe!!!

Oh, this is completely normal now.

Here's the new rules:

Non-White majority countries - terrorism and chaos must ensue until Racial Majority is in power, and then All Diktats of the Ruling Class Must Be Obeyed Without Question (Thabo Mbeki, Robert Mugabe, etc). Wealth and Property of Evil Whites will be expropriated as they are a "minority which has too much".

White Majority countries - terrorism and chaos must ensue until non-White Racial Minority is in power, and then All Diktats of the Ruling Class Must Be Obeyed Without Question (Barak Hussein Obama Soetoro, Eric Holder, etc). Wealth and Property of Evil Whites will be expropriated as they are a "majority which has too much".

Clear on the rules now?

The media is completely corrupted and traitorous, using it's power to thwart the peoples right to elect a government of their choosing based on fair, unbiased and honest information about the candidates.

Despite knowing this and watching the media get more and more brazen and openly biased each election cycle as well as on daily issues, Republican senate and house leaders refused to reel in this out of control THREAT to the security and well being of the nation while they had the chance. Instead they curled up in a ball in the corner while mainstream traitor media and Democrats kicked away.

I can only hope when we do finally get some real Republicans back in office, that they make cleaning the corruption out of media a top priority, charge and convict all those responsible for conspiring to destroy this nation as we know it.

If the Democrats pass Obamacare and Cap and Trade, I sse Secession as a real possibility. 10th Amendment resolutions are just the first step. Texas is considering opting out of Obamacare. What if they are not allowed to opt out? Would troops be sent in? Other sanctions against Texas?

Alaska, Idaho, Wyoming and Utah could band together and opt out.

I also see massive civil disobediance, possible anttacks against government institutions and person and possible civil war.

Implementing socialism always creates violence. Socialism is unamerican and Americans are not going to take it.

As was true of Lincoln, obuma will become the most hated man of his time. This will not end well for him.

One thing that scares me about a 2nd “civil” war is the fact that this time around I don’t think we’ll only have two sides. In addition to standing up to the Government, we are also gonna have to be worried about the possibility of a race war being thrown into the mix.

I seem to remember an interview of a Black Panther “leader” who said that they were just waiting for the “catalyst” to spark off their war. In this interview he even said that the other members needed to be prepared to kill all the white people. I will search for the actual video and try to post it. One of the scariest parts was when he said that the Black Panther members must even be ready to stab the little white babies in the hearts as well.Some crazy SH!t !!!
