Is America About To Reach A Breaking Point? (Patriots Prepare!)
Zero Hedge ^ | 31 DEC 2012 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 12/31/2013 9:46:13 AM PST by BCW

In America today, there are close to 50 million people living in poverty and there are more than 100 million people that get money from the federal government every month. As the middle class disintegrates, poverty is climbing to unprecedented levels. Even though the stock market has been setting record high after record high, the amount of anger and frustration boiling just under the surface in our nation grows with each passing day.

And now extended unemployment benefits have been cut off for 1.3 million unemployed Americans, and it is being projected that a total of 5 million unemployed Americans will lose their benefits by the end of 2014. In addition, as I have written about previously, 47 million Americans recently had their food stamp benefits reduced. The conditions for a "perfect storm" are certainly being created. So how much longer will it be until we see all of this anger and frustration boil over in the streets of our major cities? Is America about to reach a breaking point?

If you think that the title of this article is "alarmist", you probably have not been paying attention to what has been happening over the past few weeks. For example, a 600 person brawl broke out at at movie theater in Jacksonville, Florida just the other day...

Are you saying that the 36+ crowd has to be silenced or not (accd. to the marxists)?

I took it as 'silenced', especially in light of what Oprah Winfrey said recently...

“My main concern is that I bought a 30-06 and so far only have ten rounds. and only fifty or so for my .22.”

You should have gotten more than two front teeth for Christmas.

Should have bought .22 a year and a half ago. Plenty of the folks here were recommending it.
There - as you know - used to be all kinds of threads about ammo deals. I waited 3 months for 9mm during that whole sandy hook mess.

seem to remember a poll of some kind stating that 25%, perhaps more want a one party rule dictatorship, so he’s on his way with a bloodless coup d’etat

Anyone interesting in preparing should know about my new book (3 years in the writing) at nofema.com. The first 30 pages can be downloaded for preview, and I would appreciate any feedback.

If the legitimate gun owners in CT and CA submit to registration, it is all over.

THEY ALREADY HAVE...

That is an actual line of them registering firearms? If so, that is a police state now. City or state govn. can come get your guns ‘cause they know you have them and what they are. That is terrible.

This is New Year's Eve. Tomorrow is a new year so rest tomorrow and then attack what you have to attack the next day.

Those two pics were from Connecticut. Standing in line waiting to register their firearms.

It’s just so special all the killers are patiently waiting in line to register their weapons. After this registration, there won’t be any more people robbed and killed and no one will break in a house and shoot the people inside. Thank goodness, those people are registering their weapons. /s/s

And the ones they chose to quote were happy to do it. One of the quotes was along the line of,” They don’t want to take them, they just want to know where they are and who has them.” California’s registration of rifles begins January 2013.

47 million out of a population of 319,000?

We're so screwed.
