And they have a lot of power.

Just wait till the NRA is treated as equivalent to being the member of the KKK.

It’s just what liberals do.

They’ve been putting on a “reasonable face” since the Fabian Society started playing the long game. But whenever they sense an opportunity, either good or bad, their true colors are revealed. President Trump has given them a tremendous shock, and the fight or flight impulse is revealing some ugly sides.

The Right needs to maintain the courage to stand up to these intolerant bullies on the Left.

If Robert A. Heinlein were still alive, he would probably be banned.

The _fullness_ of the gentiles is upon us. Rejection of YHVH God’s, instruction and code of conduct, is going to bring the end of the age. Those teaching these things will see the _fruits_ of their labor.

When that happens the lawless man will be plainly seen”

“Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness”
-1 Tim 3:16

I doubt most of these people have bothered to read that generation much, besides condemning 90% of them as micro-aggressing white male heterosexuals. They are on the look out for the new disabled lesbian of color who writes about prejudice and agency with ray guns. I kid you not. If they did read Heinlein they would ban him for his weirdo later work anyway.

They’re pushing the country towards a civil war.

If they attempt to remove our leader by doing anything less than following the constitutional guidelines for doing so then the shooting will start.

And it’s gonna get ugly. And that reminds me that even though they hate Trump and all of us so much, they STILL won’t read the constitution so it’s pretty much going to be luck if over the next 8 years that we don’t come to a civil war.

All part of the coming war.

The left has “progressed” to the point of “excluding” others just like the nazis did with the jews.

While I very much prefer Heinlein's earlier works, some of his later stuff is still quite good. "Job: A Comedy of Justice " comes to mind.

And ironically and without a hint of self-awareness, they say they can exclude and refuse service but evil conservatives aren’t allowed to set boundaries that exclude liberals.

IMHO, there will be limited violence in the bigger cities, with a fawning unAmerican media fanning the flames.

Let them ruin their own shit and pay for it. Outside in the 'burbs, the two-way firearm range gets started and people start dying. Leftards may come to their senses. Then again, maybe not.

The trick is to aggressively manage your elected officials so they don't submit to screaming radicals. Easy to say, hard to do.

When you’ve declared war against your enemies, this is what you do. Similar to pre war Germany’s treatment of the Jews, etc.

“Origins: “Larry Correia believes in the wrong things. We won’t talk about what he believes that is BadThink, we’ll just disinvite him as the Guest of Honor the same day he’s announced.”

Badthink? the same as Thoughtcrime! Newspeak has officially arrived! Long live Big Brother!
