"'In our democracy,' he said, 'we resolve things, not through violence, not at the point of a gun. If we don't do that, we will devolve into a society that we're not going to like.'"

Which democracy is that? I have news for you, buddy boy; we've already devolved into a society we don't like.

Precisely what response from the American people did these little King Georges expect after what they pulled this week? Flowers and a case of Scotch?

Who said “We’ll do whatever it takes”

Who said “Bring it on”

If you’re going to talk the talk be prepared.

Last President shot....a Republican(by a hollywood brainwashed leftist)

Previous attempt...Republican President(Ford)by a drugged-out hippie POS leftist.

Last President assassinated...by a radical America-hating communist leftist....(despite the cBS's man-on-the-street attempts to claim that it was "one of those right winger's")

Trust me David Shyster, Madcow, tingle leg, Olberdork and the rest of the lying MSM...if/when the next American Revolution begins...you'll KNOW it's U.S.!

Excellent point (about the history of lib threats and fascist tactics on the left). These folks want us to remain civil? The Democrats have elevated demagoguery into an art form!

Definition of a demagogue: a person, esp. an orator or political leader, who gains power and popularity by arousing the emotions, passions, and prejudices of the people.

When we dare speak for liberty, we are called RACISTS. When we strive only to keep what we earn, we’re called selfish, heartless, and cruel. Our religion is mocked on a daily basis. We’re called backward bible-thumpers for speaking for the value of life and ignorant, gun-toting fools for believing in self defense. Now you tell me, who’s being uncivil here?

Republicans plead for civility, restraint as pro-health care House Democrats report death threats

We don't know any more than that except that Democrats report receiving death threats every time they do something they know is unpopular and whenever they need some sympathy in the government media.

“Civility and restraint” got us to the point where the democrats will soon have control over whether we and our children get medical treatment.

F’ “civility and restraint”.

I don’t think this tactic is going to work anymore either. It’s not going to change how people vote in November. People are just pissed and I don’t think they’re going to forget about it.

STUPID REPUBLICANS ... they are accepting the PREMISE that the violence is “RIGHT WING” ... geez, why don’t we just put ourselves all in jail, hang our heads and apologize. (STOP IT ... The LIBS are the violent ones ... just ask Coulter)!

We told them and told them and told them that we didn’t want ObamaCare. Or Porkulus, or the bailouts, or cap-n-trade, or the business takeovers ... it’s been a long list of abuses. But they refused to listen to us.

They wouldn’t listen at the town hall meetings. They ignored us on the phone, on the Internet, by fax and snail mail. They wouldn’t even listen when a quarter-million patriots descended on Washington on Sept. 12!

Now a few bricks are thrown and their panties are in a wad? Threats? Mere threats and no well-deserved hangings?

They have no idea how bad things are going to get if they don’t wise up and start listening to us.

I have said from the get-go that the election of that socialist to the White House was going to end in blood flowing in the streets. I don’t know if the statists will draw blood first or the freedom fighters.

America was not formed from civility and respect:

Violence is unacceptable but the continued destruction of our nation is not.

Since when is violence unacceptable?

Speeches and protests didn't get rid of Nazi Germany. Violence in Europe did.

Letter writing campaigns and Get Out The Vote drives didn't stop the North Korean incursion into South Korea. Violence on the Korean peninsula did.

Sit-ins and protests didn't stop the spread of Communism in South East Asia. Violence in Vietnam did.

What stopped the USSR from taking over Western Europe? Dozens of divisions of American troops ready to do violence across Europe and the North Atlantic.

Violence or at least the credible threat of violence is the ONLY thing that's ever stopped ANY tyrant.

That's what the Second Amendment is there for. It's a threat to politicians that the citizens have the capacity to do violence to tyrannical despots in government.

I agree that traditionally we in the US have not used violence to pull down our political masters and remind them that they are servants very often. The Battle of Athens is all that comes to mind at the moment.

But the credible threat of violence was instituted directly in the Bill of Rights for a reason.

The weasels in Congress want us to back down, calm down, stop being angry. Well of course they do. They want to get back to business as usual...ignoring us.

So the pussbags in Congress are scared, are they? Worried about some citizen dragging them out in the street and introducing them a little more directly to a rock or a brick?

Good. They're supposed to be afraid when the trample on our rights.

Nope, not working anymore. Our eyes are wide open. We control the conversation now.
