“Who says a second American Revolution is not at hand?!”

Only those who do not know their history.

This is what happened BEFORE our Revolutionary War began.

When pot is on the ballot libtards win. When guns are on the ballot we win. Rat control of Virginia is going to be very short lived. They are making their prospects even worse by threatening to eliminate suburbs.

Actually it is being forced upon us who voted to oppose tyranny. But we’ll deal with it as time moves forward. The “leadership” of the VA GOP failed to field candidates in more than 20% of the races in November.

“ I think we’ve told you before, “we” didn’t vote for this shit, so stop rubbing our noses in something that was forced on us from three liberal population centers.”

Maybe cede those three population centers to Maryland? Or, the rest of conservative Virginia petition West Virginia to annex you?

I’d also highly recommend the book Revolutionary Dissent by Solomon.

Precisely. The sanctuary counties should secede and rejoin West Virginia.

No, Maryland already has three lib population centers that wag the dog: PG county, Monkey County, and Baltimordor.

Keep your own pimples.

Whatever state you live in, "gun control" laws are coming. More and more of them.

The Supreme Court cannot be relied upon to protect your rights. The black robed elites believe tearing an innocent child apart limb from limb is "protected" under the Constitution under a manufactured "right to privacy" (which is not even in the Constitutional language). It's in the "emanations of the penumbra" donchaknow. But the 2nd Amendment doesn't mean what it says, and besides, the court just refuses to take these cases anyway.

The days of pointing to other states with "gun control" with a smirk and thinking your are "safe" in "my state" are long, long gone. Watch - the leftists next move is to require you to carry "insurance" if you are a gun owner. It will be so expensive that you cannot afford it, and if caught without it, they will fine you 6 figures and throw you into prison.

Soros and the Globalist Marxists know exactly what they are doing.

That is civil disobedience, not a revolution.

I haven’t heard of this.

Are they proposing to annex the suburbs in to the larger cities?

I suppose that would eliminate conservative local governments, school boards and thus reduce conservative influence in the state.

I am anything but naive. However you are demonstrably blind and I provided you with ample evidence to prove it.

MATT BRACKEN – INFOWARS INTERVIEW ON VIRGINIA.
Matt Bracken posted several excerpts from Book One of his Enemies: Foreign & Domestic trilogy here at American Partisan on Saturday titled, Virginia Checkpoints:What Could Possibly Go Wrong? The response has been amazing with comments coming in from around the globe. He was also asked to appear on Alex Jones Info Wars on Sunday to talk about the up and coming festivities next month, in Richmond, Virginia.

I asked Matt if it was okay to post the interview here at AP which he said, “Sure. Have fun!” To watch the interview go here. Please pass it along to other like minded folks – Enjoy!

VIRGINIA CHECKPOINTS: WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?

Posted by Matt Bracken | Dec 21, 2019

This excerpt from my 2003 novel “Enemies Foreign And Domestic” takes place two weeks after a false-flag sniper attack on a packed football stadium, one week after all semi-automatic “assault rifles” are banned, and a few days after a prominent anti-gun Senator from Maryland is assassinated.

Improbably, it all takes place in Virginia, which in the novel is taking the lead in the new gun confiscation efforts.

Click the image to go to the story.

They do the same to us in Az when something like this happens. Country folks did not vote these city idiots in so they need to stop blaming ALL Arizonians for it. Know what? We need an electoral college in our states too. Then these city numbers could not do this to us. We are lucky to even get any tax representation back from them for what we pay in.

Not necessarily true. The large population centers produce the votes....real, illegal aliens or by fraud. At some point the only option will be to get rid of the tyrannical state leaders.
