Republicans Must Understand: We Are at War
American Thinker ^ | Dave Kado

Posted on 06/20/2020 4:49:36 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

The time to enter the battle has come. There is nowhere to run and nowhere to hide; no prisoners will be taken and no quarter granted. There are no "safe spaces" or DMZs. The enemy is emboldened, on the march, and out for blood. Increasingly, his tactics resemble full-spectrum warfare from a position of complete battle space domination. Whether we like it or not, our options have been crystalized: roll over and die (which may even be a preferred outcome to what some of them have planned) or fight back.

Before we get into the idea of fighting back, let's look at the battle lines. On the one side, we have a loose collection of freedom-lovers, conservatives, traditionalists, free-marketers, and rational and logical people (let's call them Republicans, if for no other reason than that we need a shorthand label). On the other side, there is a tightly knitted confederacy of Marxists, communists, socialists, relativists, hive-minders, grievance-mongers, Stockholm syndrome sufferers, and criminal cabals (let's call this group Democrats). There is still a large portion of "independents," but even that is becoming irrelevant when we review the fortresses each side holds.

*snip*

Despite the apparent power differential between the two sides, all is not lost. In order for us (the Republicans) to have a fighting chance, we need to realize and embrace the situation we're in with eyes wide open and adapt our tactics accordingly, and everyone needs to join the fray. We must stop pretending we're the majority, or that we have the power, or that people will eventually agree with us...

*snip*

What does this look like? That's for you to decide. A guerrilla army's strength lies in its unpredictability and lack of centralization.

You’re only wrong about one thing, the war is not “coming”, it’s here, and we all better be prepared to meet it.

When push comes to shove, I don't believe we can live with that plan. I believe even THEY will be shocked at how ruthless we can be... :(

History is being rewritten, people are being fired for disagreeing with blm, discussion of renaming military bases, etc, etc.....

And what are we doing....posting on how ruthless we can be in FR.

H/t to you, sir. I became disenchanted with FR a while back, then had a near-fatal accident last year that took me down quite a bit.

Now, when I look at the clock to see what time it is, it says that it’s half past my giving a damn and I’ll post what I please

A semi auto 22 in the right hands can be a potent tool, but while you’re learning it and practicing, I’d be keeping my eyes open for a bigger caliber.

Yep! The war is coming to Prineville, OR today. Rumor has it 1000 strong force of ANTIFA is coming to town. The one time I go to Oregon to pick-up my granddaughter for her annual summer vacation with Nana & Papa and this happens. I did bring a few items to ensure the family is safe. So glad I invested in an Oregon CCW over 6 years ago.

The locals have already formed a militia to repel the invaders. It will probably be a repeat of Coeur d” Alane response. A lot of nice folks patrolling the downtown sector wearing and carrying firearms. While the ANTIFA punks either bugout once they see them or hold a very low key peaceful protest (yeah, right).

I have been coming here since I met my wife in 1982 (to get checked out by her family). Was a resident from 1983 to 2000, but had to give it up when I retired from the Air Force due to the lack of jobs in the area. We still drive over from Idaho once or twice a year to visit her family. The East side of the Cascade mountains is very conservative and the locals will not play if you screw with them or their property. Hoping for a peaceful first day of summer in a part of the country we really love.

This article is true, but falls short. The battle is not Demoncrat vs Republican. It is conservative vs the world. The Democrats and deep state leftist establishment are workinG with the UN, Chicoms, EU, and others. The Democrats have allies! Who do we have? Hong Kong protestors? Visigrad nations?

If it is us against the world, we have very few options beyond personal resistance.

My belief is that we need to to 2 primary thigs:

1. Mobilize to defend The Founding Fathers Statues and Memorials

2. Go on the offense against Leftist statues. Make them feel the pain of having their history toppled and burnt.

Any person that has communist ties, like Nelson Mandela. There is a statue on WashDC and several others around the country.

Any of the Black Panther statues or museums...Documents from Leftist movements. Any hardcore socialist people or documents/museums. There are actually Lenin statues in the country.

If I’m on twitter and post something about a Statue getting toppled, I’ll get many likes and retweets.

When I tweet about physically Defending Founding Fathers Statues...almost nothing.

So, how do we get people ready to mobilize, as I know people are fed up.

Oh, I agree. I’m quite certain the Antifa-Democrat-BLM-Marxist who breaks into my house sometime down the road could have body armor on. But I have what I have, and will make do for now.

Not exactly correct. We are in a culture war. And we are losing badly. Our entertainment, our news, our corporations and businesses, our politics, our schools and universities, our churches, and even our families have been co-opted and taken over by progs and leftists.

It is the Elites of the world who are controlling the factions whipped up to hate the USA/Conservatives/Western Civilization/Judeo-Christianity.

Those factions include good ol’ communist-schooled, American Fascist-acting youth (often the very spawn of the Elites themselves), socialists, Western-haters of the Third World, American Black Leftists, European radical atheists, Chinese communists and nationalists, La Raza Hispanic movement and Islamacists.

Even the best armor will have a tough time against a few blasts of 00-buck as well as a couple of slug blasts.

401k(s), pensions, investments, and the vision of a utopian retirement paralyze any resistance for most. Notice, the Biblical “Mark of the Beast” is primarily financial.
