People Should Know When They’ Are Conquered

Posted on 12/14/2020 3:33:48 PM PST by ExpatCanuck

Are we witnesses to a historic paradigm shift? Have we been conquered by complacency? Would we be the first to think ‘This can’t happen here? ‘Did most Russians think they would fall prey to control of the bolsheviks? No. Were most people in Cambodia oblivious to Pol Pot’s revolution? Yes, until they were rounded up and killed because they could read or wore glasses.. Did anyone in North Korea get a vote on how life should be?

It will start with the disappearances of the conservative voices we listen to. Eventually it will be the shaming and persecution of any of us with conservative viewpoints.

Tell me how I’m wrong and why we’re such a special civilization that we are not subject to the foibles of human weakness.

We’ve got a lot of weapons and a tradition of using them.

See tagline.

They have to come for our guns.

No two ways about it.

The difference is that we have guns and lots of them

I hate to repeat this, but those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Recent totalitarian regimes all used deceit to gain power.

Then they tightened their control on power.

Then the always lied about it for as long as they held power.

400 million privately owned firearms say otherwise.

No two ways about it.

They want the guns, but they want them one of two ways.

Either gradually, so two generations from now, brainwashed grandkids will glady turn them in, or

Sporadic, poorly thought out resistence occurs so they can claim an internal right-wing terrorism, and take out the leadership in selected raids, followed by long-term clampdowns on gun owners.

Probably a combination of the two.

Massive, all at once raids will not happen.

There's a rebel force still fighting. A resistance, with an unshakeable will, an unconquerable spirit and a boundless energy that hasn't given up.

His name is

Donald Trump.

And if God is on Trump's side, Trump will win this. For us.

Don’t jump the gun. That will be on 01/20/21

China is made up of: 23 Provinces. 5 Autonomous Regions. 4 Municipalities. 2 Special Administrative Regions.

So likely we’ll be the 3rd Special Administrative Region

But when do you decide it’s time to use them? When Biden declares your black rifle to be subject to the NFA? When he announces mandatory “buy-backs”? When the DemoNazis eliminate the filibuster and pack the Supreme Court? When?

"Tell me how I’m wrong."

The first thing Pol Pot did - and the essence of the Khmer Rouge Year Zero - was the destruction of history.

That was loud and clear when our statues started falling in June. It was way beyond mere vandalism. It was a message to America.

All Maoists, Bolsheviks, tyrants, and murders do this.

The end of history is the start of the Maoist new world. It has to be that way, in order that the population accept the unacceptable.

“The number of veterans in the United States declined by about a third, from 26.4 million to 18.0 million between 2000 and 2018.”

https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2020/veterans-report.html

So let’s say only half (9,000,000) can get into the field to lead these folks:

“Three-in-ten American adults (30%) say they personally own a gun”

https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/10/22/facts-about-guns-in-united-states/

Let’s say half are too young or too old, So that’s conservatively 300,000,000 / 2 * 33% = 50,000,000. Suppose only half of fighting aged gun owners show up to be led by the 9,000,000 veterans. That’s a force of 25,000,000 total, 9,000,000 of whom are vets and say 14,000,000 of whom are merely hunters with long guns, scopes, predating skills, cammo, trigger control, etc.

In comparison,

“the China People’s Liberation Army, which consists of Ground Forces, NAVY, and Artillery as well as armed police and, of course, a strong air force. The latest estimates about the size of this army at 2,035,000 personnel”

https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/29-largest-armies-in-the-world.html

So America’s leadable gun owners are ten times the size of the largest army in the world.

Just sayin’.

They will come for the guns. They have to, or they can’t maintain control. But they will find some way.
