Gee, a Manchurian Candidate with obviously-disastrous economic policies and stirs up the peoples? - sounds like a real community organizer.
Gee, who didn’t see this coming.
Oh well, they voted for “socialism” and they got what they wanted. Enjoy the suck.
This is what happens when you have Universal Suffrage.
Could happen here too.
Sean Penn, Danny Glover...can you answer this question for me?
1. It puts the lie to liberal (or progressive, or whatever euphemism is used) statements/policy regarding firearms.
2. Shows the logical end result of placing all power in a central government authority
3. Liberals would like to do the same to those perceived to not agree with them, but are too chickens**t, knowing they would get slaughtered if they openly tried at this point in time.
“You can always hire one half of the poor to kill the other half.”
Chavez organized goon squads based in the slums and armed with military weapons, right from day one. He always had people who would do what cops and soldiers wouldn’t do. And it had the advantage of being deniable.
They saved him when he was briefly deposed in a coup, they swarmed over the fence and took back the palace, and then the young officers guarding his cell put him on the chopper and flew him right back into power.
This is what the anti-Maduro people need to do. They are able to put literally millions in the street. They need to have a priest bless the crowd... can you do “last rites” over a million people at once?... and then do as Chavez’s people did, swarm over the fence and take the palace. They will have sharpshooters firing at them, but they can have a few flying squads of their own taking out the sharpshooters.
They have the millions. They need to use them in one determined push.
So, is that where Berkeley PD got the idea to disarm one side and arm up the other?
***A very old, sad story. ***
I remember when MARCOS, in the Philippines ordered the registration of firearms. The US media was ecstatic! I said he would confiscate them in two years. Everyone laughed.
One year later he confiscated the guns. The US media cheered him on! I said he would seize power, and become a dictator, in two years.
He seized power in one year. The US media was suddenly horrified!
This explains the hate-cop love-cop approach of liberals. Love them when free citizens are armed with “cop killing bullets”, hate them otherwise when it is to employ them to overwatch the fascists riot and genocide.
