Two of the most popular liberal news sites are calling for violence against Republicans for obstructing the radical agenda of President Barack Obama.

Stand your ground, do not fire unless fired upon. But if they mean to have a war. Let it begin here.

[Stayfree]

And there are not enough bullet-proof vests for all the commies in D.C.!!!!!!!!

sticks and stones may break my bones...but a double tap from my .45 will make a big fricking hole?

The more I see the news the more I am convinced that there is going to be a civil war in this country for the simple reason that both sides want there to be one. The failure of the public schools to teach history has caused the current generation to be ignorant of the causes and costs of the last two times Americans have fought Americans. The Revolution was twelve years of brutal fighting where families were torn apart and the local economy devastated. There were very few on either side of the conflict in 1775 who thought the cost of the war in treasure or lives would be nearly so high as it was. If more than a very few had suspected the true cost it is likely that a settlement would have been reached between London and Philadelphia.

In 1861 both sides thought that the war would be short and relatively bloodless. This was testified to by the fact that the enlistments on both sides were for only 90 days. The North assumed that they would simply march "On to Richmond" and the war would be over. The Confederates thought that if they could shoot a few Yankees the rest of the blue coats would run home.

The Virginia department of transportation today complains that the commute times from Washington DC to Richmond are a nightmare because it can take up to three hours to cover the 110 mile distance. It took the North four long years and hundreds of thousands of lives before they were able to complete that trip. And despite piling the blue coats up like cord wood at Manassas, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Chickamauga, The Wilderness and Cold Harbor the Yankees never stopped coming. Had the southern politicians have been able to see beforehand the ruins of Atlanta, Columbia and Richmond, would they have found it easier to find an acceptable compromise in 1860. But no one on either side suspected the cost so they found it easy to pull the first lanyard?

I see the same attitudes prevalent today that lead to the prior wars between Americans. The liberals have been driving back the conservatives so easily and for so long that they cannot accept the fact that the other side will ever stand and fight. What they fail to understand is that they have backed the conservatives into a corner. We can no longer retreat, and thus must throw all our remaining strength into a single desperate counter strike.

The conservatives look at the soft urban culture of the liberal elite and think that bringing down a bunch of hippies and university professors should be too big a challenge. Failing to realize that those hippies and university professors are backed by an army of union thugs, Mexican warlords and ethnic drug gangs.

I don't know the name of the place where it will start, but I'm convinced that a new name will soon join Lexington Green and Fort Sumter in America's history.

‘"I'D SHOOT AGAIN IF I HAD TO
‘FEARLESS THUG-SLAY GUY BACK AT STORE

Posted: 2:43 PM, August 17, 2009

“I'd do it again if I had to.”

Those were the first defiant words out of no-nonsense businessman Charles Augusto Jr.’s mouth yesterday as he came back to work less than 24 hours after opening fire with his trusty shotgun on four robbers — killing two of them.

The four men had picked the wrong shop — and the wrong man — to mess with. And they would have known it had they read the prophetic words from Dante's “Divine Comedy” written in marker above the door: “Abandon all hope all ye who enter here.”

The thugs entered a world of hurt when they barged into Augusto's Harlem restaurant-supply shop, Kaplan Bros. Blue Flame Corp., Thursday afternoon, pulling out a 9mm pistol and pistol-whipping an employee as they demanded cash.

“I told them there wasn't any money. ‘Take your gun, put it in your pocket, and go home.’ They had a chance to leave,” Augusto said.

But they didn't listen.

So Augusto, 72 — known to most as “Gus” — channeled his inner Dirty Harry and pulled out the Remington shotgun he had hidden under his desk for 20 years. He opened fire three times, peppering all four men with buckshot.

“I did what I had to do,” he said. “It wasn't my choice; it was their choice.”

The wounded men tried to run but didn't make it far.

The man armed with the pistol, 29-year-old James Morgan — who had a long rap sheet with nine prior arrests — took the first shot directly to his face and made it only as far as the shop door before crumpling dead to the ground.

A second man, Raylin Footman, 21 — who had a prior arrest for robbery and a relative who was a cop — made it across 125th Street before collapsing. He'd died by the time he was taken to a hospital.

The other two, Bernard Witherspoon and Shamel McCloud, both 21, were picked up by police nearby and taken to St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital. They are expected to survive. Both are to be arraigned today on robbery charges.

Sitting at his desk in the middle of his shop, marred by bloodstains and with bullet holes in the windows, Augusto said he felt bad about what happened.

“I had to shoot them. It was a tough thing to do,” he said. “I have to live with that. I'm sad that there are mothers and fathers who lost sons.”

But Augusto's beaten employee — who would only give his name as J.B. — had little sympathy.

“S- - - went real bad for them, not for me,” he said. “I'm breathing. They dead.”

I laughed. Love it.

[SE Mom]

IT must be working...Cantor’s office had shots fired at it last night..

[ATLDiver]

The HuffPost people should reconsider that tactic, it won’t end well.

[ohioman]

Good post. My friend. Let’s hope the court rules in our favor.
BTW - The original Confederate Capital was in Montgomery, AL. I always thought it silly that the Confederacy moved it to Richmond so close to DC. Whereas, Bama was in the Heart of Dixie and made much more sense as the Capital.

[SlightOfTongue]

The sissies would say we started it.

It'd be just like the limp-wristed liberals to bring sticks and stones to a gun fight.

[Domandred]

That’s okay, most of em will probably just use the barrel to smoke a bowl anyways.

[Semper Mark]

"I'm their Huckleberry"

[trillabodilla]

I haven’t read the thread, so sorry if this is a repeat.

I don’t take this lightly, these people are presently running our military and I wouldn’t put it past them to use our military against us if they deem us “dangerous.” Scares the daylights out of me, really.

[Quickgun]

Going to go look in the mirror to see if I have a worried look on my face.

[trillabodilla]

“Their party is above everything. Above the nation, above our rights, above God and above national security.”

A great post that deserves a *bump*!

[Jet Jaguar]

BTTT

[popdonnelly]

Hypocrites! They whine and cry that they are being victimized by violent people, when they aren’t. Then they urge violence against their opponents. The one thing these liberals and leftists are pre-eminently successful at is lying.

[Vaduz]

Two of the most popular liberal news sites went from fear to hate to insane.

[PapaBear3625]

"Obama's critics keep blasting him for Chicago-style politics. So, fine. Channel your inner Al Capone and go gangsta against your foes. Let 'em know that if they aren't with you, they are against you, and will pay the price."

Visualize the response from the Left if Glenn Beck or Rush had said anything similar against Democrats.

[GonzoGOP]

I always thought it silly that the Confederacy moved it to Richmond so close to DC.

My point exactly, they assumed it would be an easy war, or even that there would be no war at all. After all nobody died at Fort Sumter and there was no immediate counter attack. There was a general assumption in the South that the Northern threats were all just posturing. Much as the liberals now assume that conservative anger today will not manifest itself in a will to fight.

It never occurred to Southern leaders that they would have to trade territory for time. They had the better generals, and at least in the beginning better troops. But the choice of such a constrained battlefield caused a war of attrition rather than maneuver. The exact sort of war the Confederacy could never hope to win.

I think the North came to their senses first. After Bull Run, and certainly after the Shilo they realized that this was going to be a very long bloody war. Even to the end the leaders of the Confederacy believed that if they just hit the Union "one more blow" they would give up. Lee had a letter demanding the end of the war to be presented if he had won the battle of Gettysburg. This of course ignores the fact that the Union troops manning the forts around Washington DC were almost as numerous as Lee's entire army and that the Union had several other armies in the West that they could move by rail to make good any losses. Because the North controlled transport and had greater numbers, they could always recover from a disaster. In the Civil War the Confederacy had to win every battle, the Union just had to find the will to keep fighting.

This same attitude is evident today when Nancy Pelosi says that she can kick down the door and the opposition will collapse. Yet it is the conservative areas that are producing the food and resources. They transportation networks move almost exclusively through conservative areas. While the cities produce a lot of taxes, they consume them at almost the same rate. The old progressive canard that the blue stats produce more net tax revenue than the red stats falls apart when you examine it at the county level. The progressives would need to count on using terror to quickly neutralize all conservative resistance. With control of the countryside, the conservatives would just need to find the will to keep blocking the roads until the cities starved. The conservatives are going to suffer a lot of massacres. The progressives are going to suffer a lot of starvation. Neither side should be looking forward to this. As best I can tell both sides are.
