Van Jones Predicts ‘Potential Nightmare Scenario’ of Social Unrest

St. Louis blogger Adam Sharp has posted a series of videos from Van Jones’ recent talk at Washington University. The most exciting clip was when they decided to toss Adam out of the event! But his subsequent posts have been revealing on a number of fronts, including Jones comparing Fox News to Satan.

Today Sharp Elbows adds one more clip into the mix. Many of you have followed Glenn Beck‘s analysis of how desperate progressives will begin to drive wedges in this country that may trigger the kind of trouble we’ve watching unfold across Europe. It seems Van Jones is now predicting just that. Jones is unwavering that the U.S. is “going to go into a tough period.” A “potential nightmare scenario” he calls it.

Jones sees two trends. A country that is growing more diverse. And one that he is certain is going to be “less and less economically prosperous.” He repeats his forecast. Makes you wonder – what intel does he have that he can be so confident of American economic demise?

These trends, says Jones pointing us to history, make up a recipe: “That is not a recipe for common ground, that’s a recipe for a battleground.”

Sharp entitles his video with a question: Is Van Jones Predicting a Civil War?

The left has wanted it for a long long time.

Well, they'd better be wearing a lot of kevlar if they want to start a shootin' war.

>> Liberals do want the demise of America.

Liberals are ignorant. It’s the Leftists.

from what I have heard, it seems that assange is damaging liberal causes more than Conservative causes.......

Liberals have no Army.
When the uniformed men and women of the American military are called to defend the Constitution, it won’t be Van Jones on the winning side.

I have to agree liberals are ignorant. You are correct the leftists are the militants. One can be certain it would be the ignorant (aka liberals) who would work with the (aka leftist) militants to bring chaos.

If I wasn't such an egomaniac, demanding to put my own creations in my .sig etc., I'd use that quote.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Rioting as a sign of unrest has been an European thing, American not so much. In this country, people can burn down their own neighborhoods, but just try moving out of them. Ain't gonna be pretty. I remember Korean shopkeeper's defending their stores with AK-47's. I remember the Beverly Hills folks barricading their streets and desperately trying to buy firearms, except there was the 15 waiting period that they supported.

This ain't gonna roll at all in small and medium-sized towns, only corrupt Democrat-dominated cities. Gee, it'll be tough to watch.

Isn’t that what leftists have been wanting for decades?

The old adage "be carful what you wish for" comes to mind. I don't think the patriotic public is going to show much mercy for progressives if the country collapses from within.

you are plagiarized, all the time. isn't turn about fair play.

The government bureaucracy has a lot of guns too

I agree, and it has crossed my mind the mild mannered Liberals that I “know of” would be willing participants in a Nazi-like takedown attempt on our Liberties. On the other hand, I know Liberals that would eventually see the truth and shift towards Libertarianism - the ones stuck on the stupid canard of Right Wing religiosity.

The existence of mythelation and auto-somal recessives guarantees that there’ll always be plenty of diversity around ~ it’s not just a black and white world.

[mojitojoe]

So is Van suggesting we need to double our ammo supply?

[meyer]

The government bureaucracy has a lot of guns too

And a few of them are actually competent. Bypass them.

Whatever blows you skirt up Jones, bring it on.

Gotta agree with him. More “diversity,” less economic pie to share, IS a recipe for “civil unrest.”

Solution, of course is two fold.
Less “diversity.” Cut immigration and secure the borders. Only take the best and brightest, not the scum of the earth from places like Sudan and Somalia. Cut the illegals off benefits and jobs. End the concept of “anchor babies.” We won’t have deport ‘em, they will, mostly, self deport.
More economic prosperity. Cut taxes and regulations and let business do what it does best - make money.

More pie, less social “diversity.” Thats the way to peace and prosperity.
