Trump’s angry words spur warnings of real violence
The Associated Press ^ | August 16, 2022 | By DAVID KLEPPER (D-AP)

WASHINGTON (AP) — A man armed with an AR-15 dies in a shootout after trying to breach FBI offices in Cincinnati. A Pennsylvania man is arrested after he posts death threats against agents on social media. In cyberspace, calls for armed uprisings and civil war grow stronger.

This could be just the beginning, federal authorities and private extremism monitors warn. A growing number of ardent Donald Trump supporters seem ready to strike back against the FBI or others who they believe go too far in investigating the former president.

Law enforcement officials across the country are warning and being warned about an increase in threats and the potential for violent attacks on federal agents or buildings in the wake of the FBI’s search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.

Experts who study radicalization and online disinformation — such as Trump’s aggressive false claims about a stolen election — note that the recent increase was sparked by a legal search of Trump’s Florida home. What might happen in the event of arrests or indictments?

Amplified by right-wing media, angry claims by Trump and his allies about the search are fanning the flames of his supporters’ distrust of the FBI — though it’s led by a Trump appointee — and the federal government in general. And at least a few of Trump’s supporters now appear to be acting on his anger.

burn, loot and murder along with antifa terrorized the nation for two years and all the lamestream could say about it was it was "mostly peaceful."

a demoncrat shoots up the congressional baseball game targeting republicans and the media says he didn't represent liberals.

muslims run suvs through crowds and the story goes away.

"teens" ransack fast food joints, fairs, etc and nothing in the media.

antifa heavily infiltrated jan 6 and not a peep.

And all of a sudden whites are the problem in this country??

I did a search on “What I Saw on the Way to the Revolution” but didn’t find anything.

This thread does remind me of the short booklet called “The Revolution Was” that was written in 1938 about FDR and the New Deal.

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/929392/posts

Excerpt:

Now given (1) the opportunity, (2) a country whose fabulous wealth was in the modern forms dynamic, functional, non-portable, (3) a people so politically naive as to have passed a law against any attempt to overthrow their government by force and, (4) the intention to bring about what Aristotle called a revolution in the state, within the frame of existing law Then from the point of view of scientific revolutionary technic what would the problems be?

They set themselves down in sequence as follows:

The first, naturally, would be to capture the seat of government.

The second would be to seize economic power.

The third would be to mobilize by propaganda the forces of hatred.....

Well, like Nancy Pelosi said about the BLM riots...”People do what people do”.
