What Is Biden’s Obsession With Using F-16s to Kill Other Americans?
Townhall ^ | 06/26/2023 | Kurt Schlichter

Posted on 06/26/2023 8:53:15 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Alleged president Joe Biden is on his “ban assault rifles'' kick again because the government apparently needs to keep firearms out of the hands of law-abiding citizens and in the hands of meth-addled whoremonger scumbags like his son. One constant component of this stumped stump speech is a line of nonsense that essentially boils down to us not needing real guns to fight government tyranny because the government – his government – will unleash the F-16s on you uppity peasants if you fail to obey your elite masters. I’m not persuaded by the argument that says, “You are crazy for thinking you need guns to resist tyranny and, also, we will murder you and your family if you attempt to resist tyranny.”

Eric Swalwell, the flatulent Chi-Com tramp-defiler – gotta credit Agent Fang2 for going above and beyond the call of booty – went even one better. Toots wanted to nuke us, so perhaps the demented dictator is just chill, limiting himself to unleashing the Air Farce on the American people. Yet one can sense a certain undercurrent of eagerness to get it on running through these unveiled threats against patriots as if the cretins uttering them have this secret desire to rid themselves of us troublesome rubes once and for all. How hard would they try to pass up the opportunity if it presented itself – actually hard, or Waco “Oh well, better light it up” hard? The senior leadership of the current woke military is probably willing to play along, though when they aren’t waving the pride flag, they are waving the white one. It’s been three decades since they won a war, and they probably feel that they are due.

But it remains unclear why military pseudo-professionals might think they will do better against 100,000,000 patriots here at home when the brass did so poorly against a few hundred thousand fanatical hill tribesmen half a globe away. At least a grizzled dust puppet like Biden has an excuse for being wrong – he was always stupid and evil and corrupt, and now he’s added a layer of senility to his bean dip o’ failure. 

It's easy to point out the limitations of military power in the face of the Vietnamese or the Afghans, and it’s easy because those are entirely appropriate examples to cite. Well, not really entirely appropriate – the Vietnamese and Afghans had nowhere near the kind of advantages American patriots have against a garbage president unleashing the woke US military on his political opponents.

At the outset, there are numbers. There are a lot of patriotic Americans out there. It’s just that people like Biden and Air Biscuit do not typically hang with any. Our military had only a few million folks, and much of that is tooth rather than tail.

Moreover, the V&As faced a united United States military. That is, there was no substantial internal threat among US forces. There was a minor internal threat consisting of a few incidents – one guy I know got shot by one of those schmucks, and, in a proper military, he would be pushing up daisies after being ventilated by a firing squad about a month after his spree – but while individually horrible, these events never substantially impacted operations. So, when American generals and admirals were moving pieces around the board, they never had to worry, “Gosh, is the Big Red One’s 1st Brigade Combat Team loyal?” But they sure as heck would need to when the mission set is going into the kind of places most of the combat troops are from and killing mostly people like those combat troops.

Putin’s Wagner problem provides an example of what happens when the folks you are counting on to do your dirty work start counting and realize that the numbers are on their side. But all mutinies are not openly mutinous. A little story, with the names omitted to protect the jerk involved: There once was this aviation battalion commander who was a real pain – just obnoxious – and then the battalion deployed to a combat zone. The commander continued being obnoxious, including to maintenance personnel. And suddenly, the unit operational readiness rate for the choppers dropped. This is bad. You do not want to be in a war zone and have to explain why 80% of your choppers are grounded. You can’t just order the aircraft ungrounded – you need to get the maintainers to maintain and sign off. But the OR rate kept dropping, and no amount of threats, screaming, and other fulminations could bring it up. The generals relieved the commander; oddly, the OR rate shot right up under the new CO. So, all resistance is not necessarily kinetic.

Now, let’s look more closely at those fighters/bombers that Biden proposes to vector in on the disobedient. The USAF has about 1660 fighters and bombers, the Navy 530, and the Marines about 300. Let’s call it 2500. How many of those are overseas or on ships? Let’s say 25%, so we have 2000. Remember the OR rate? Let’s say they can get it to 50%, which is pretty good when you calculate guys deserting, casual sabotage, and people blowing up fuelers and parts transporters. That’s 1000 planes for 50 states. That’s 20 planes a state. Against a couple of million rebels. Those are not great odds for Team Tyranny. Oh, and the OR rate keeps dropping over time. 

Now, there’s the tactical issue, and it’s delicate because the consequences of the threats the Delaware Dictator keeps making are seriously dank, but he opened the door, so let’s peer on in. Dementia Joe insists that an AR-15 is no use against an F-16, and this is just wrong. An AR-15 is very effective against the most vulnerable parts of the F-16. No, that does not mean a bunch of tacticool guys pumping rounds skyward when one flies over, hoping to knick a fuel cell. The most vulnerable parts of the F-16 are the guys feeding it, fueling it, and flying it. And if Biden is ordering his remaining troops to start dropping bombs on dissidents, that means he is ordering his remaining troops to start dropping bombs on the dissidents’ families. Do you expect folks whose kids got vaporized by a JDAM strike to be particularly picky about who they target in return? If you declare open season, dude, it’s open season. They say that war is hell for a reason. Maybe don’t start one.

Actually, there’s no maybe – stop threatening your fellow citizens, jerks. Comments by nitwits like Biden and Swalwell are not merely stupid but actively evil. They are expressing their sick fantasy of solving the problem of traditional Americans not by winning elections but by making war upon them. They babble on with braindead self-assurance that they can unleash the dogs of war without the hounds turning around and mauling them. But there’s a better way than threatening other Americans with death from above via our military. It’s called abiding by our Constitution. Because if they don’t, these morons will unleash a nightmare they cannot even imagine.

People who want an end to this Globohomo tyranny regime have to be realistic about our situation.

They control every major institution in the country.

Any State or group of States that tries to break away will face an economic and financial as well as military response.

Q/. how long would most Freepers support a secession when medicare, social security and military pensions get cut off ?

Most would fold when the ECB payments get 25% cut off. Louds of worthless loudmouths.

2021According to the U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service, a total of 38,854,259 Hunting Licenses, Tags, Permits & Stamps had been registered for the year 2020

That’s 38 million men well armed in long range shooting

The entire U.S. military is comprised of only 1.3 million personal

You are outnumbered...

A bunch of Fudds, even 100 to one that have their grandfather’s single action shot gun and old aren’t any thread to the military.

We need to do better.

I cannot believe that any USAF officer would follow any order to unleash on defenseless American citizens .
Better , if such an order were to come down that this er pilots would instead level the White House , with the usurper in it . Along with any other command structure that was issuing such orders . Just smoke them first .

So why did Delta go along with the Waco attack ?

That was 30 years ago. Things are a lot worse now.

They are used to going after armed civilians. The spent 2 decades in Afghan and Iraq doing it.

That’s great for securing the interior of the country.

The problem would be the bases on the coast, all the navy bases, and the overseas bases.

The other is the payments system and the collapse of the financial system in dissenting areas.

All the bank payments system go via ACH, which is Fed and private bank controlled.

State Banks as well. Individual states could set up an alternative to ACH, but they haven’t.

You can shoot the ATM. But that doesn’t solve the problem.

Why woud they be cut off? Would not the new country comprised of the seceding states not meet it obligations to those recipients? Of course they would and the could administer it in a sane way and deprt illegals.

“Would not the new country comprised of the seceding states not meet it obligations to those recipients? “

Sure they could. But you have to build those systems to duplicate what is currently delivered by the Social Security Administration, Medicare, VA etc

And they have not been built.

Back in Jr. High we had a teacher that was recently back from Vietnam. Every Friday he would spend the 50 minutes of class showing slides and talking about it.

He told stories (rated G) of being on patrol, etc. I recall the part he hated the most was when he had to escort pilots out to their planes (choppers?) and they would often get shot at by snipers.

I wish you were right. But the response to the lockdowns suggests otherwise.

The F16s are the easiest to deal with, as they require a meticulously groomed airfield to operate w/o the engines ingesting foreign objects...

A more realistic threat is mortars and drones. ARs require line of sight, and indirect fire weapons are a big problem.

Mybe it’s time ,the people have the right to abolish this Government when it stops working for us. Better late then never.
I think ,somewhere in this country it will start and it will be like a grass fire. Good cops will join forces with the people and the military will split and help the people to overcome. The military should have stopped the 2020 Election and transfer of power until the fraud was sorted out. Obama fired 400 generals and subordinates so that couldn’t happen.
If you want freedom ,start thinking about the unthinkable!

It has to do with the population going along with curfews and stay at home orders during an emergency.

If everyone goes into the streets, the Regime collapses.

If most stay home, the minority who do not are much easier targets.

Like the last US civil war if there is a next one the current standing army/navy/af role, even at the very beginning, will be a small footnote in history. Totally irrelevent.

Disconcerting to see a “conservative” prattle the lie that the Iraq war was lost. It was “lost” to get a D Congress in 2007 cutting OCO funding, then a D president in 2008 crowing about removing all combat troops. The Lie served its purpose. Predictably Death and Destruction followed in the reign of D foreign policy.

Of course we’re still there at several bases after the Iraqis asked us to return in 2014 to help rid them of ISIS. We were prudent enough to negotiate a SOFA agreement before committing. Since then we’ve been Whack-a-Moling ISIS and various terror groups out of existence with little to no Leftist media coverage. They want to keep their lies out of the minds of their marks.

So of course no recognition or acknowledgement from the demoralized Westerns who still depend upon their mortal enemy for information and world view.
