This is not a Christian board; it is a conservative forum. No one is calling for an offensive assault, but they are expressing the sad truth about our present situation - the Left seeks to annihilate us, and push the “shining city on a hill” that is America into the sea.
The One who told us to love our enemies also told His disciples to arm themselves (Luke 22:36) . Evil prospers when good men do nothing.

From the front page of FreeRepublic: “Welcome to Free Republic! America’s exclusive site for God, Family, Country, Life & Liberty constitutional conservative activists!”
Luke 22:36 totally taken out of context, like it always is, as the single solitary verse for taking up arms as a Christian.
“All those who take up the sword will perish by the sword” should make that clear.
So should “love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you.”
Also, “turn the other cheek” if you remember.
“If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight.”
I agree. I find it odd that no one ever reads that verse Jesus actually in his last command to his disciples was to take everything they owned and go and buy a sword now a sword in its day was like a 44 mag handgun it was the most powerful weapon of its time. He was terrified he knew what was coming he had to.
