I still remember Alec Baldwin on Letterman calling for Henry Hyde to be hung and his family to be killed (I seem to remember him calling for someone to be stoned to death). He got big yuks from the audience for that, it’s all “fun and games” when the left does it.

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

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.”

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

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.

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.

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

"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.

A baseball bat, eh?

I’ll see your bat and raise you a 9mm, twelve-guage, and a 30-30.

I also find it interesting that the Huffington Post bit had an article on ABC News, and something on youtube, and both had been scrubbed. Perhaps somebody belatedly realized they had shown their hand too much?

The left is so hypocritical! They call for violence then scream like little girls when they get it thrown back at them. They’d better get used to it because they defied the will of most Americans and until it is undone it will stay this way. Silly donkeys did you think you would get away with this?
