“Mobocracy” is a word that should inspire fear. Increasingly, however, it’s a reality of life in 21st-century America. Regardless of the outcome of elections, Democrats intend to use the mob to retain and expand their power.
The following happened in roughly the space of a week.
President Biden invited three Tennessee state legislators, two of them expelled by their colleagues, to the White House to celebrate their alleged courage and decry their supposed victimization. The former consisted of the trio taking over the well of the Tennessee House chamber and leading chants to encourage the mob, which had invaded the body, demanding more gun control after the mass shooting at a Nashville Christian school. The perpetrator, shot dead by police, has been described as transgender.
Contrast Mr. Biden’s embrace of leaders of the Tennessee mob with Democrats’ exaggerated outrage over Jan. 6. When it’s against the interests of the Democratic Party, it’s an insurrection. When it furthers its interests, it’s a peaceful protest in defense of democratic values.
Within days of the mob action in Tennessee, an antifa/Black Lives Matter gang shut down a speech by Kristan Hawkins — leader of Students for Life of America — at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Those who had come to hear Mrs. Hawkins’ were met with shouts of “Fascists go home” and “F—- pro-lifers.” Through all of this, the campus police were notably absent, though two who allegedly assaulted pro-lifers were later arrested.
Within days of that atrocity, former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines tried to speak at San Francisco State University on why female athletes should not be forced to compete against biological males. Besides being held prisoner in a room barricaded by protesters and called a “f—-ing transphobic bitch,” Ms. Gaines was punched by a man in a dress.

Yes, I know we are a representative republic, but we have democratic elections that are now completely illegitimate.

Mob rule turns on the handlers pretty quickly. Always has.
“taking” is an inaccurate verb tense
That's been the plan all along.
Yet so many cling to the laughable notion that this country shouldn’t split.. that it can somehow reunite in some kind of “common national purpose.”
Some are better prepared than others to handle that situation.
He should inform himself of the great history...and proper name: Ochlocracy.

Might as well turn them in bullets-first, since they are going to kill us anyway.
We might even win, since most of them will be affirmative-action gender-deranged perverts.
No disagreement here.
Became a conservative in 1970 when I was in the 7th grade and discovered this talk show with a guy who had a weird accent. It was William F. Buckley on Firing Line.
In 84 went backpacking through Europe visiting family members who lived through Nazism and were living in Communist countries.
We talked politics. They told me about things that lead to the downfall to their countries and we are seeing played out in our country now.
If I remember correctly protesters heading to a city in Idaho to protest. The were met by armed citizens at every corner and decide to go home.
This is actually why the Founders believed democracy was the worst form of government. And John Adams, correctly, said: “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate
It appears that if the Dems cannot get control of the guns, the next best thing are mobs. No one or organization can control a mob. The Dems figure let the mobs do their dirty work. Its an easy pathway to anarchy.
Well they keep telling us we are a democracy.
