Van Jones Predicts ‘Potential Nightmare Scenario’ of Social Unrest
The Blaze ^ | 5 Dec 2010 | Scott Baker

Posted on 12/05/2010 3:58:11 PM PST by mandaladon

St. Louis blogger Adam Sharp has posted a series of videos from Van Jones’ recent talk at Washington University. The most exciting clip was when they decided to toss Adam out of the event! But his subsequent posts have been revealing on a number of fronts, including Jones comparing Fox News to Satan.

Today Sharp Elbows adds one more clip into the mix. Many of you have followed Glenn Beck‘s analysis of how desperate progressives will begin to drive wedges in this country that may trigger the kind of trouble we’ve watching unfold across Europe. It seems Van Jones is now predicting just that. Jones is unwavering that the U.S. is “going to go into a tough period.” A “potential nightmare scenario” he calls it.

Jones sees two trends. A country that is growing more diverse. And one that he is certain is going to be “less and less economically prosperous.” He repeats his forecast. Makes you wonder – what intel does he have that he can be so confident of American economic demise?

These trends, says Jones pointing us to history, make up a recipe: “That is not a recipe for common ground, that’s a recipe for a battleground.”

Sharp entitles his video with a question: Is Van Jones Predicting a Civil War?

-Final thoughts...

Best to Pray for the Republic and to Prepare all you can...

And to hopefully give a good accounting of yourself if and when your day of testing comes...

The only problem as I see it is if the Socialists are in power, they have the Federal military and the Federal police forces (BATFE, FBI, DEA and every other alphabet soup agency that has para-military forces) behind them to quickly put down any rebellion.

I wouldn't bet money on the following orders from Obama to fire on civilians.

You don’t have much faith in the citizens of Michigan do you? Your state Governor controls the police and National Guard in your state, NOT the Feds. If your governor says close the highways in and out of the state, that’s what happens. Shutting down an airport is so easy. Park a semi crossways in the middle of the landing strip and another one on the long taxiway. Done.

Want to stop the military from advancing? Shut off the fuel lines for their vehicles and aircraft. Civilians control all the fuel lines and food stuffs across America.

The Fed is only a threat when people obey. When people refuse to obey that’s when they realize that without the cooperation of states they aren’t squat.

I think God is on our side of this fight.

you have made some excellent points...the time is not now though....I will wait till those who started this come one more time. I will then make my final decision, to take up arms to serve, protect, and defend this nation. Too do less, would violate my sacred Oath to God and man.

I think our decision to take up arms will be for defending our families and protecting our property.

If our government collapses because of corruption or collusion between the parties it could get hot real quick. That’s when well see the true racists who want to rid America of minorities. The modern day Klu Klux Klan.

During the Reconstruction of America (1863– 1877) gangs rode across America killing anyone they thought were traitors or thieves.

“ Gangs have existed in the United States for over 200 years. It all started when the first immigrants came to the U.S.A. Most of them came for a better life but many of them ended up in poverty. The first gangs were formed among poor adolescents who grouped together for the sake of socialisation and protection. They were of the same race or the same ethnic background. The first known gang specialized in crimes was called “The Five Points”. They consisted of Irish immigrants and was established in New York City. They dressed in a specific way and used monikers or nicknames. Another early gang were the “Forty Thieves”. Their gang leader was Edward Coleman and they formed in 1826.

Most of us have been stockpiling the past few years (pre-
Zero coronation — current) to get ahead of the curve.

Picked up one of these for discreet urban/mobile settings:

Fits in laptop/carry bag, can take Glock mags, in addition extra 10 Glock 33 happy sticks:

($10, these are NOT cheap quality! Korean American Tactical Armory, also make great AK mags)

Gives me over 350 rounds of firepower with mag compatibility with carry Glock 26.

Also, need Level IIIa body armor? Let me know if you’ve seen cheaper. These are advertised as used, they come in new, no background check:

more excellent points...though America and all of America, I believe, will know when the time comes upon us. I believe, there will be no doubt as to what should be done, when the time comes. Those of us left, may even seek death but yet shall not find death. There is much which is a mystery. We all live in a grand mystery, or do we? We may (some of us) find out. I do not look forward to this time, so as I stated, I believe the time to act, has not come upon us. I’ll continue to vote and pray for the best outcome, till the time comes. And there will be no doubt, America and Americans will know the time has come.

Hi! Is there some reason that you are starting a competing CWII Ping List. Travis, Archy and I have been runing the original one pretty well for, oh about seven years. If you want to help out, or even take over we'd probably be willing to talk to you about it. But just starting another one seems a bit strange.

Please go ahead and Freep-Mail me so we can discuss.

Thanks for the ping....doesn’t surprise me...Van Jones has publicly ‘called’ for top down and “bottom up” (social unrest).

I’m not as optimistic as you.

I’d like to believe it would be laughed at, but I think it will be more than just civil unrest. They are going to create some kind of major crisis in which Obama can appear to be the savior with the answers. I think that most are unprepared and will find themselves facing a choice of death or dependence on the government. How did Hitler do it? The people LOVED him! Children snitched on parents, neighbors on neighbors...I think it will go far beyond ‘civil unrest’

....”just roving bands of obamanoid thugs rioting and causing havoc. A well armed populace will be able to defend itself if it has the will.”....

I think they are fully aware that we are well armed and will revert instead to creating whatever crisis it takes for the unprepared majority of American people to face a desperate choice between suffering/death or dependence on them. Those who become dependent will view us as the enemy and a threat to their govt. lifeline. Snitches will abound and dissenters will be made examples of. Sadly, there agenda isn’t going to be difficult to achieve. Hitler did it.
