A few days after they took power in 1975, the Khmer Rouge forced perhaps two million people in Phnom Penh and other cities into the countryside to undertake agricultural work. Thousands of people died during the evacuations.
The Khmer Rouge also began to implement their radical Maoist and Marxist-Leninist transformation program at this time. They wanted to transform Cambodia into a rural, classless society in which there were no rich people, no poor people, and no exploitation. To accomplish this, they abolished money, free markets, normal schooling, private property, foreign clothing styles, religious practices, and traditional Khmer culture. Public schools, pagodas, mosques, churches, universities, shops and government buildings were shut or turned into prisons, stables, reeducation camps and granaries. There was no public or private transportation, no private property, and no non-revolutionary entertainment. Leisure activities were severely restricted. People throughout the country, including the leaders of the CPK, had to wear black costumes, which were their traditional revolutionary clothes.
During this time, everyone was deprived of their basic rights. People were not allowed to go outside their cooperative. The regime would not allow anyone to gather and hold discussions. If three people gathered and talked, they could be accused of being enemies and arrested or executed.
Is this what we are witnessing? The predictions of Revelation playing out before our eyes? My heart is breaking for America and the world as a whole.
The Khmer Rouge claimed that only pure people were qualified to build the revolution. Soon after seizing power, they arrested and killed thousands of soldiers, military officers and civil servants from the Khmer Republic regime led by Marshal Lon Nol, whom they did not regard as pure. Over the next three years, they executed hundreds of thousands of intellectuals; city residents; minority people such as the Cham, Vietnamese and Chinese; and many of their own soldiers and party members, who were accused of being traitors. Many were held in prisons, where they were detained, interrogated, tortured and executed. The most important prison in Cambodia, known as S-21, held approximately 14,000 prisoners while in operation. Only about 12 survived.
This is exactly what’s going on.
It’s a Maoist revolution.
They have no intention of “defunding the police”, just changing the nature of the police: they will become political commissars, just as in the Soviet Union and “Kampuchea”.
And just like Ayers said in 1970, they plan to liquidate about 25 million or more who can never be re-educated.
That’s what this is.

400,000,000 firearms.
17,000,000 ARs.
We all say, “ No.”
From what I read in Heinlein’s books I gathered that he wanted to kill at least eight Soviets before he was killed if they ever invaded.
If you don’t think it is a possibility you are not paying attention.
To the extent that the Marxists want all history gone, yes.
Yep! The only question is when. If President Trump wins the 2020 Elections it will be more than four years but less than 12 years from now. They need to graduate at least 10 classes from the colleges and universities to get their numbers up to where they have a voting majority. Plus each year “Conservatives” lose a number due to death. Factor in the political climate,the campaign to degenerate America by the colleges and universities aided and abetted by the media, the hatred of America by the majority of the young, the hatred of Capitalism by the majority of the young, the hatred of God by the young, the Democrats and meiia, the future is not difficult to for tell.
No because we got guns.
They can try. As far as I know, the people of Cambodia were not raised watching westerns, and sitting there armed to the teeth. The damn little antifa cadres will get their ass handed to them in short order

I will be like the Slim Picken’s character in the film Dr. Strangelove, riding on a 1000MG warhead dropped on ANTIFA Headquarters.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.
How many campus commies who consider themselves intellectuals will be overjoyed to ‘serve the people’ by working the fields?
Working in Louisiana’s rice paddies & chopping sugar cane in 95 degree heat & 90% humidity?
I’d almost love to see it.
We have guns, they didn’t
"After the desolation of the cities, the early massacres and in the midst of the first famine, one of the Angka Loeu leaders, Ieng Sary, in his incarnation as foreign minister, flew to a special session of the United Nations General Assembly. Upon landing in New York, he boasted, 'We have cleansed the cities,' and when he appeared at the United Nations, the delegates from around the world warmly applauded."
Most of us don't remember this particular little gem, and many who do recall the dark, Lovecraftian horrors of Cambodia's descent into madness and savagery dismiss it out of hand as irrelevant to our circumstances. But it's an old familiar theme to those of us who are paying attention.
No.

The corpses will be Leftists — when they try to overthrow America.
