Three Things That Could Curb Leftist Power When Democrats Win Again

If they get POWER they will be dictatorial, and only one thing will "curb" them.

The only reason the Left is batfesces crazy today is because we have traitors like Romney, McCain, and other squishes HELPING them. If the Republicans were as united as the Democrats in protecting the Constitution, then the Democrat Party would not even exist.

When? What 'when'? 80 years from now?

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

-- Ronald Reagan

Don't ever forget these words.

I expect them to go for our wallets rather than our freedom.

The evil thugs will take our private property with clearly unconstitutional fines, as they did with bakers, florists, and photographers who exercised their freedom of speech and freedom of religion by choosing not to actively participate in parodies of a real wedding. It’s a lot less shocking on video when they garnish your accounts than when they shoot up women and children. The disgusting tyrants prefer the blood, but they will settle for destroying lives financially.

How we should respond . . . that’s a topic to be decided and acted on if, or more likely when, we are again facing a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object and evincing a design to reduce us under absolute despotism.

>>If the Chinese conducted a Tiananmen Square-style massacre, imagine the images and videos that would emerge. The Chinese may be Godless Communists, but even they don’t want to be global pariahs.<<

This leads me to think that every phone in China has a back door that the Party can use to make it purge every image and video, with one command from the cell tower.

So what are FReepers and conservatives doing to convince their neighbors? How often does a freeper talk politics with a neighbor or co-worker? How often does a FReeper intentionally step out to evangelize others?

Hint, calling others names is not effective evangelizing.

When FReepers and conservatives and libertarians get away from their keyboards and intentionally evangelize in person with the unconverted, then we have hope.

The only three things that will really stop the socialist Democrats are:

1. Single action firearms
2. Semiautomatic firearms
3. Fully automatic firearms

As an active member of my community I do this every day. I think you’ll find most people here are very free with “evangelizing” their friends and neighbors.

The Democrats have shown us that it's OK not to accept the results of an election.

I've pondered that. What would 'The Resistance' look like?

They can pass whatever crap they want - doesn't mean that people will mindlessly comply and that the tyrants will get the results that they are expecting. If you are familiar with Europe, it's a necessity to figure out ways to bypass and cheat the obnoxious regulations and taxes over there. And so it shall be over here too.

If that’s their plan, they should start hiring more firefighters now.

If something dramatic does not change it’s only a matter of time.


We need to connect with the under 20 crowd and get them the truth about communism, socialism and tyranny.
We have about 50 years of communist influence in our education system to counter, and it may not be too late to start, but it soon may be...

Swore that oath back in 1968; “TO PROTECT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES”.

It’s still as much in force today, as it was back then.

Take a walk down any street, “THE RESISTANCE” will be every 6th or 10th person you see.

Of the other 8 at least 4 or 5 will agree with “THE RESISTANCE”, but out of fear will want to keep a low profile.

“How we burned in the camps...”. There is the choice. Burn up front Waco style or burn in the camps.

It’s hard to be optimistic when you keep seeing the numbers on young people’s approval of Socialism. Then you speak with them and find out it’s for real.

If something dramatic does not change it’s only a matter of time.

True, that's a solid point, and a sad one.
