I came to the conclusion some time ago, that we've passed the point of political solutions in this country.

The left and right will never reconcile with each other. We've essentially become two distinctly different cultures inhabiting the same land mass. The uneasy truce we're currently experiencing will not last.

Steel your spines and dredge up your courage. What's coming will not be for the faint of heart or weak of spirit.

I'm afraid the road back to where we came from is going to be filled with blood and tears.

I’m not worried about what a bunch of soy-boys in pajamas can do to me. If they want to get violent with me they can come to my home so I can stand my ground. Otherwise, any kind of violence against them is a waste of perfectly good lead.

These scenarios are both highly unlikely.

If the few hundred Antifa that exist, riot and burn down their own leftists cities? So what?

If anything, that makes a Trump Presidency all the stronger.

If President Trump loses, It will take a while for the new President to do anything. In the meanwhile the economy will tank. People will lose jobs. The misery index will soar.

In two years, another election and the left loses both houses.

The Left might push gun control; very likely the Supreme Court will strike it down.

I do not see much blood in the streets, in either case.

Go ahead, riot and protest in the open. Enjoy it. Because if you bring violence to us, violence will be returned, in ways you cannot imagine.

A classic reference on FR …

YouTube - "The Plans of the Weather Underground", 00:01:56 min.

Larry David Grathwohl (October 13, 1947 – July 18, 2013) was a United States Army veteran and an FBI informant in the 1970s. He is best known as the informant who infiltrated the Weather Underground, a radical political organization in the United States.

His exploits were documented in the 1976 book Bringing Down America in which he exposed the inner workings of the Weather Underground and the personal activities of many of its members, including Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.

He died at 65 in his Cincinnati apartment, apparently of natural causes after being ill for some time.


Chicago Magazine, 8/01/2001, "No Regrets"

Yeah, the picture above of Bill Ayers was published 5 weeks before 9/11.

We KNOW that Trump cannot lose a fair election. So, if the media declares Elizabeth Warren or Sleepy Joe to be the “winner,” I don’t expect PDJT to just meekly concede. He knows there are MILLIONS of us who will defend him.

The Deep State will try to enforce the media narrative. But we will know better. The DemoRAT Antifa thugs will try to intimidate us and the media will call us racists. But WE WILL prevail.

Hence the desperation on the left to confiscate firearms from the American people. The leftwing extremists know that the fit is going to his the shan. Americans won’t be doing the left’s communism gig anytime soon.

I remember all the huffing and puffing about how when Hillary eats Trump he must for the good of the nation accept defeat. When the shoe was on the other foot, they yelled Resist Trump.

I want to see the Democratic party crushed and torn apart. The only solution in my mind is for a new political party to form out of the ashes of the corrupt Democratic Party.

The Presidential campaign is not going to be the last straw, it will be the confirmation hearing for the replacement of Ruth B Ginsburg.

...passed the point of political solutions in this country.

That was the case in the first Republican-Democrat war. Both President Buchanan and Lincoln wanted an Article V Convention of States to resolve the slavery issue but by then it was too late to get enough states needed to convene . The mini convention that was called did come up with a compromise but because it was not binding they had that awful war deal with the issue.
We have already had the violence, Congressman Scalise was nearly assassinated and a propane tank was targeted for an explosion but the Antifa terrorist was killed. Article V can solve this but if the FUD monger's keep it from happening we will get Republican-Democrat war #2 and it will be much worse than the first.

I agree; this country cannot survive as a 50-state entity. To survive a total meltdown, it MUST split into two. It’s now wayyy too divided to ever reconcile.

The economy as always is the #1 factor in a President’s getting back into the WH.

They will flood the streets after a Trump victory in their Antifa costumes looking to bust the heads of anyone near enough to become part of their 15 minutes of YouTube fame.

They are enemies of We the People ... They illustrate one of the many reasons why THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

the road back to where we came from

John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

I think we have reached the point of no return.

Republicans are not socialists, but their corporate anti American worker policies are very efficient at creating them.
