Biden to Gun Owners: You’ll Need an F-16 to Go Against the Government
Breitbart ^ | 01/21/2024 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 01/21/2024 9:49:57 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

President Joe Biden again mocked gun owners over the weekend, suggesting they will need F-16 fighter jets if they are really serious about taking on the government.

Townhall reported Biden speaking to reporters, referencing Thomas Jefferson’s famous quote, “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”

Biden said, “And I love people who say, the ‘blood of liberty,’ or excuse me, ‘the tree of liberty is watered with the blood of patriots.’ Well, guess what, man, I didn’t see a whole lot of patriots that are out there walking around making sure that we have these weapons…And if you really want to worry about the government, you need an F-16.”

Mr. Biden: Do you know what *I* would need to challenge the government?

A working brain, devoid of dementia and Alzheimers.

You know, the thing.

“F-16 fighter jets if they are really serious about taking on the government.”

This narrative was stupid the first time he said it. Brandon has terrible speech writers.

Joe is under the false assumption that we don’t have F-16s.
Never underestimate your enemy.

The Taliban didn’t have a single F-16.

How long would the military last if anyone involved in their supply chain became a legitimate target?

How long would the government stand if anyone known to be a regime supporter became a target for assassination?

I guess aircrews and maintenance personnel are bullet proof?

And are willing to fire on their own friends and families.

Granted this is why they have tried to breakdown family and any non-government civic and religious group but the destruction is not yet total.

About 95% of the people familiar with the successful tactics and weapons of the Taliban voted for Trump.

Biden needs an enema in order to think straight.

“I was me who suggested that Belgrade be bombed. It was me, who suggested sending American pilots and blowing up all the bridges on the Danube.”

Guess what the Serbs did after the bridges were bombed?

They stopped foreign ships from transiting the Danube in Serbia.

I’ve heard them say this before. What an odd thing for the President to say. No one (or at leave very, very few people) openly talk about armed overthrow of the government at any level. Yet, the fact that I’ve heard this senile old fool say this more than once, he must fantasize about shooting people who disagree with him.

What a dangerous man.

The means of defense against foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at home. - Madison

Madison would be greatly concerned if not alarmed at -
Obama's (and now perhaps Biden's) Civilian National Security Force that was "just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded as (the military)".

There seems good reason to hope Obama doesn't have a fourth term in the WH.

So how many F-16s did the Afghans have, before we abandoned all our equipment to them?

So his threat is to commit the most heinous atrocities against human rights the world has ever seen, perhaps even outclassing the Holocaust, by turning the USAF against its own citizens by bombing them?

And they sit there and call Trump “Hitler.”

No. It’s idiocy. It’s the same stupid argument over and over. Guerilla warfare does not require F-16s, and F-16s are not necessary to deter or even prevail. If you have an F16, but the aircraft carrier crew mutinies, you better have find landing strip somewhere else before you run out of gas. The Maccabees didn’t have any attack elephants, let alone F-16s. Neither did the Minute Men, the Viet Cong, or—GASP! ORGAN CHORD!—the J6 insurrectionists (heehee/sarc). Thus far, Ukraine doesn’t have any F16s, and yet Russia can’t seem to make it to Kiev.
