A Wave of Violence Is Threatening Trump Supporters
The Epoch Times ^ | July 18, 2018 | Celia Farber

Posted on 07/20/2018 8:39:05 PM PDT by BeadCounter

Graffiti on a Boston wall screams: “Kill your local Trump supporter.”

Meanwhile, Londoners at a massive protest took turns, under the famous “baby Trump” balloon, at bashing another naked Trump balloon while crowds cheered. Bashers stepped away looking lighter, as though they had been dunked in a river by some cult promising inner salvation.

Children have been pepper-sprayed at free speech protests attended by their parents. The elderly have been beaten nearly to death while walking to their cars, which perhaps sported a Trump sticker on the back.

Training to use a cane for self-defense as you suggested is a good idea if you must carry one anyway for health reasons. I’d only add that if you can deal with the extra weight, a heavy-duty steel “bariatric” cane costs little and will give you a heftier stick with which to beat thugs about the head and deprive them of breath and consciousness.

The one I bought myself, the Medline Bariatric Cane Model MDS86420XW, ran about $20 from Walmart. The latter source no longer has it in stock, but you can apparently find these canes without difficulty on eBay and at stores like Home Depot. If you acquire this cane, you’ll probably want to find a more comfortable alternative to or supplemental cover for the hard synthetic handle.

When I lived in Minnesota, all I had was one of those “Terrorist Hunting Permit” stickers on my car. That alone incited episodes of road rage. And that was during Obama’s first term.

My own younger brother did this to me. To be honest, my life is so much better without his hateful diatribe.

Our President needs a majority Republican Congress.

Ummm, we actually have that. The GOP and RNC are useless. Instead, we need to Primary out the Republicans and get TEA Party Limited Government representatives in office.

Probably so.

My friend and I would spend hours talking about Bible Prophecy. And the impact on politics. For over a decade.

I’m still puzzled. But I have not heard from him in basically 2.5 years now.

HOWEVER, roughly a year before this “Hillary” thing he said “he was starting to believe him (Obama)”.

I’m puzzled as to how he came to that conclusion. I believe a lot of his neighborhood was liberal.

Then he went on and moved to Lawrence, Kansas. And then on West.

Shoot back.

This crap will stop REAL quick.

Yep, it's all fun and games until someone gets a .45ACP to the face.

“...Not in the People’s Republic of CA....”

It’s your RIGHT EVERYWHERE, my friend - NO matter what some leftist piece of sh*t with a badge or black robe says.

If we’re to call ourselves Free Men - and AMERICANS - then we should damn well act like it.

I carry, I WILL carry, and I will ALWAYS carry, anywhere and everywhere.

And I’ll have my day in court by a jury of my peers if necessary.

Or, failing that... well, we’ll just leave that hanging out there.

I do.

Escalation of force depends upon the aggressor’s actions.

“...whatever is legal,...”

When it comes to protecting my life, EVERYTHING is “legal”.

“...It’s disgusting to see people write about kneeling to mouthy perverts....”

That particular response is NOT in my playbook, nor should it EVER be an appropriate response for an American to even contemplate.

"When it comes to protecting my life, EVERYTHING is 'legal'."

Will you be doing something like carrying an antitank weapon in Times Square in New York City soon? Will you use it preemptively, just in case? We'll watch the news in anticipation. ;-D

Pepper spray and tasers are restricted in some jurisdictions. Just letting people in un-American places of foreign culture know that they have options.

"That particular response is NOT in my playbook, nor should it EVER be an appropriate response for an American to even contemplate."

Good. Display some conservative campaign messages then, like I said.

Duuuuh, it's brought us many conservative judges, maybe with more to come after the midterm elections. ;-)

"The GOP and RNC are useless. Instead, we need to Primary out the Republicans and get TEA Party Limited Government representatives in office."

If you are in one of those few commie neighborhoods with commie Republicans in office (mostly in the northeast and the left coast), yes. Win a primary with a more conservative candidate and get that person elected. Maybe you can even find one who'll push for shutting down government schools. ;-)

the problem for them will be that the Sane Americans KNOW that they have the right to fire guns at criminals.

Thanks. A cane is a great option, especially for anyone wanting to do defensive exercises.

Yup. Sure. Slung on my back.

“..We’ll watch the news in anticipation. ;-D...”

It’ll be on channel 10.
