I agree.

Moreso I was really talking about the “giant sleeping army” of gunowners myth.

There are an incredible amount of weapons and ammo distributed throughout this country, most of it owned by good people with decent skills.

If 5 good people in a neighborhood know each other and have each others backs (korean shopowners for example) then you’ve got one of the best impromptu police forces available.

If you’ve got 5 isolated gunowners who don’t know half their neighbors names, much less their political and shall we say theiving/mobbing tendencies then forget about it.

Whether it’s a mob of teens in wisconsin or a mob of paramilitary ‘roid-ragers from the ATF in Waco, you’re on your own, and you’ll have to make that decision that Custer made.

Yes, the banks and the Wall Street are convenient scapegoats, and the dumb voters will fall for it, as they are incapable of comprehending the reasons behind their bank’s $5 monthly fee, all the while their own 401K plans hold investments in those banks and on Wall Street.

Glenn Beck has been covering this extensively for months. He's continuing to cover this - and all the riots and their connections - in detail on GBTV.

He says they're no longer even hiding it (connections) any longer.

All these demonstrations remind me of the 60s when people like Bill Ayers were protesting the Vietnam war at the l968 convention in Chicago. He was a spoiled rich kid who didn’t have to work and grew up in a ritzy Chicago suburb which was next door to my home town. I think the present bunch just wants to recreate those “fun” times.

No worries. They’ll go too far and start really trashing private property and someone will, hopefully, get shot.

Attacking “corporations” by trashing the private property of Main Street small business is a really stupid strategy.

This administration pulled off this tactic in several ME countries. They were practicing for this country. Rhey think they know how to do it now.

These are trial runs.

Actually, the trial runs already took place- in Egypt and Tunisia and Lybia.

Isn’t Mr. Law one of the kenyan’s czars of something or other?

It is part of the same thing, the spoiled, aimless left shouting down reason and truth. It’s as if the cultural revolution didn’t do enough damage in the 60s, and now the progeny of that lunacy are out out to finish the job. No matter, for every action there is a reaction, and come the next election, that reaction will be a conservative Congress and presidency.

Difference was that in ‘68 most of the country was taken by surprise by the violence.

This time around there are a lot of us who are situationally aware and are armed.

Time to hit the range again.

Obama is in deep doo-doo and he will not be re-elected

Which is why hordes of Democrats will re-register as Republicans to vote in the primaries. They will give us Romney who has the least chance of beating the kenyan and it is not a loss to the Left if he does. He will hold their place while he pushes their agenda through a Republican Congress for 2 years then he will have a more compatible Democrat congress for his last 2 years after which he will go down to a more capable Hard Left Democrat i.e. an actual, perhaps even open, Communist.

Since you beat me to it, I was going to say that the trial runs were in Madison, WI.

If Dems can get Romney the R nomination via crossover voting, they won’t have to put up with him as POTUS.

There will be a Tea Party challenger on the ballot in most red states and Baraq will win with a Clintonian plurality.

Arab Spring was all about getting the dictatorial leaders out and ours is all about keeping him in?

The Arab Spring was about replacing more-or-less secular governments with Jihadist Molsem governmentss. It was also practice for what is being attempted here. Here our own wannabe Jihadist ruler is trying to suppress opposition to ultimate sharia.

They will kill the unarmed, but will run like heck once lead starts flying.

That's my take. Also the dude with the gun(s) won't be in the middle of the mob. He will be behind walls in his store or on the roof or looking out on his yard. This gets briefly heavy when they go after things like those Korean owned stores and middle class residential neighborhoods (at least outside of the NE). Where it gets complicated is when the "authorities" send armed protection for the rioters in those middle class neighborhoods. Police moved to confiscate the guns of those Korean store defenders in LA before they had any concern for the rioters. Police disarmed property defenders in NOLA.

This may be “an attack on the Wall Street bankers but the destruction will be wrought on stores and small businesses then maybe middle class and blue collar homes and neighborhoods.

Our side is just too damn nice.

They have enough to impeach his a$$. That would be the best way to handle the dictator.
