leftists thinking they will win through intimidation and violence should also consider which end of the political spectrum is more heavily armed.

And you should consider what, exactly, will happen when Gavin Newsom announces that the State of California will not recognize any decision of the USSC in which Brett Kavanaugh participates in the majority, and he is joined by Andrew Cuomo, making the same declaration on the part of New York.

Wargame it a bit with me. If you were the President when (not if) that happened, what would you do?

Even if Feinstein had treated the letter with confidentiality as she should have, I have no doubt they would have leaked and doxxed Ford if the official FBI investigation had failed to bring Kavanaugh down. Ford was used.

Watch for the talking point which we are already hearing that Kavanaugh’s “dubious” appointment makes the Supreme Court illegitimate. If the Commies can’t use the court to impose their will on the American people they will deny its legitimacy.

Yes, and whole states will be in rebellion, starting with California, New York, Maryland, and New Jersey.

Leftists don't stop or slow down with one minor setback.
They are not human, and will not become human -- not after one loss; not after 1000 losses. Quite the opposite.

The left has no idea what a Republic is.

Have the military enforce it if it needs be. It happened with desegregation of schools...

Most of us on FR knew this long before the Kavanaugh episode.

Some of them are deranged and violent, but they are still humans. I don't think we should dehumanize our political adversaries, although we must not give in to them.

My dad used aluminum screen mesh shaped into a cylinder with a cone shaped funnel for an entrance. He put that over the nest, and when a sufficent number were flying around inside, he gassed them. In two days the nest had been “deactivated.”

Of course he was of German descent, and an engineer as well.

Good post. Ford won’t be prosecuted for two reasons - there won’t be an impartial jury found to convict if guilty, and it will allow her to become a political martyr. Swetnick seems a more vulnerable person for legal prosecution, with little p public sympathy.

More focus should be put on the committee democraps and their dirty tricks. This can only happen if the GOP retains the Senate after 2018.

we must insist that Christine Blasey-Ford and all those who conspired with her are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Can't be repeated often enough.
Literally, our Constitution is under attack and must be protected and preserved by ALL means possible.

Shoot violent people.

It’s an object lesson.

It happened with the desegregation of schools because a) Orville Faubus got the political cover he needed from Ike's little show of force to agree to go along, and because the Army was not used to close the private academies which sprung up to frustrate desegregation.

This situation of widespread, decentralized leaderless resistance, with a Senate minority (Democrats) who represent maybe as much as 65% of the US population is very unstable.

When Gavin Newsom announces that the actions of the Border Patrol are illegal in California and starts arresting CIS officers "for their protection" after a few are lynched, please tell us exactly what orders you will give to "the military", and what you will do when elements of the chain of command announce that your orders are unconstitutional and won't be obeyed?

I think that it is also important to remember that when the leftists denounced in those countries, sexual impropriety was one of the subjects used for denouncement.
**********************************
It can’t be repeated enough.

Socialist/communist/Dems promote sexual impropriety, sexual deviancy, and immorality, all in the name of freedom.

They stir up the masses with unfounded accusations, create dependency, and crate chaos in the election process (illegals voting, dead voting, no photo id’s and fraudulent absentee votes).

They create false causes and with their socialist mouth pieces (MSM) accuse the innocent of crimes that don’t exist (collusion, a rape that never occurred, etc. etc.).

This political circus creates a state of guilty until proven innocent. They then demand that innocent people be prosecuted. They then denounce the government for failing to fix the problems they have created, and demand that the election system needs to be fixed, the Constitution needs to be changed, and it’s all the conservatives’ fault.

Once in power the socialist/communist/Dems will denounce the same people they used as minions, and prosecute them.

The political theatre is to gain power for the Socialist Intelligentsia, and to destroy our Republic. Ultimately they want a worldwide Socialist Dictatorship.

They did the same in the Weimar Republic, prior to Hitler gaining power. It’s the same tactics, the same bad characters, and the same goal. The Antifa, BLM, OWS are nothing other than actual socialist/fascists, wearing the mask of anti-fascism. They accuse all who oppose them as being exactly what they, in fact, are.

If it looks like a rat(fascist), smells like a rat (fascist), and acts like a rat (fascist), it probably is a rat (fascist).

“But the First Amendment does not grant carte blanche to assembly and petition.”

“But what about my freedom of expression?” Sorry sweetcheeks, that one ain’t in there. Whoever came up with that nonsense gave us the onslaught of pornography and open homosexuality, among other social disasters. Those lunatic harpies screaming in the Capitol were just “expressing themselves”. We have to utterly destroy the left.

The missing items for the patriots at Bunker Hill were bayonets. After that loss, the patriots started using bayonets also.

I was once attacked by hornets; I ran & got in my car & drove back to the nest. I cracked the window & then let fly with knockdown spray, filling the entrance.

Soon they were all milling about on the ground, not quite able to fly. Soon after that they were dead.

Anyway, expect more leftist violence. I’m clean shaven with a mil style haircut and I’m visibly white. In blue cities that could make me a target. Oh, and my Vietnam vet’s cap. It’s war out there.
