2nd Amendment Meme Is About Violent Takeover By The White Supremacist Movement.
 
Last edited Fri Sep 27, 2013, 11:15 AM USA/ET - Edit history (2)

The 2nd Amendment argument is really a Trojan Horse because the RW does support a violent takeover in the long term. And the GOP fundamentally supports that option. The silence of the GOP about the RW media hinting at the termination of progressivism, liberalism and anything else it does not agree with says volumes about who the GOP is. Such option might be a last resort but it seems to exist.

When you can't pass any meaningful gun safety regulations without recalls and other sorts of mayhem it is obvious the GOP and RW wants that faction to have any weapon available to them. And in their heart of hearts they really do support violence and intimidation to get their way. I see more and more of the "Don"t Tread On Me" element in the populace. And RW media is more hysterical and threatening by the day. The reaction to Obama care is almost incendiary when you hear the rhetoric of the GOP the last few days.

Their dangerous legislative tactics should be an alarm bell. It is an indication of how far the GOP is willing to go in the end. All I see from the GOP is complete hostility. And I am tired of hearing RW radio hosts suggesting assassination and violence against the opposition without any retort. If a progressive even used half the language of these bullies they would be pulled off the air immediately. Yet the hate and diatribe grows by the day as we approach the implementation of Obamacare.

The question is how the left will react if these fools ever decide to act. The left simply has to understand that we are in more than just a political debate. We are facing an enemy that wants to take away everything including freedom.

My experience as a Vietnam vet causes me to be concerned because of the disposition of this faction. Their true plans are not completely known.

I realize that what I have just said will be controversial. From my point of view there is a very dark side to this movement that we need to at least pay attention to. We have to remember people like McVeigh and others who were right wingers. Danger lurks from more than the just jihadist terrorists. Some of the recent massacres have a RW flavor to them. Even after all these disasters the RW insists on more weaponry and deregulation rather then less.

1. "it is obvious the GOP and RW wants that faction to have any weapon available to them"

So buy your own damn gun.

And I am tired of hearing RW radio hosts suggesting assassination and violence against the opposition without any retort. If a progressive even used half the language of these bullies they would be pulled off the air immediately.

I see a lot of people here on DU making claims of war, treason, terrorism, hostage-taking, etc. but I'm not aware of any allusions to assassination. Perhaps some examples would help.

The question is how the left will react if these fools ever decide to act. The left simply has to understand that we are in more than just a political debate. We are facing an enemy that wants to take away everything including freedom.

And what do you propose? Rounding-up dissidents? Shutting down broadcast, internet and print media that is not favorable? Arresting opposition party members?

That's 2 threads today for her fighting these fluffer nutters.

I think she's fighting to keep her fellow Proglodytes from making, "The Charge of the Light-Headed Brigade."

2. Right, and the solution to not liking M.A.D. is to buy your own nuke. No thank you.
 
I want nukes and guns gone.

7. There are 2 sorts of people
 
protected and not-protected. Those who are protected either protect themselves or sit idly by while others protect them. This latter group inevitably reverts to being the aforementioned not-protected sort.

That being said, the OP just spews vitriol. That's all he ever does. Fact-free, unthinking, uncritical spew. He has no recommendations that aren't based in violence and animosity. He wallows in revenge fantasies.

Actually, it's probably better for everyone if he remains unarmed.

denying the RW hate machine and it's threats of violence?

10. A failure to raise the debt ceiling is being called an act of terrorism and treason.

These are extremely serious statements. Terrorism and treason are an acts of war.

The OP is engage in reckless hyperbole. If he were truly convinced this were an act of war he would meet it with countering-force appropriate to war. But he won't. Why? Is it because he's too scared to fight that war (then he's just bloviating in the name of freedom) or is it (more likely) he knows no rational person would follow his calls to arms.

In short, he's a gas-bag.

Sadly, while I readily admit some on the right speak in violent terms the OP and a few others prove that the Left is just as culpable.

There's a petition going around to designate the GOP as a terrorist organization. They have been using Nazi tactics since 1999. I'm going to go sign it.

Those types of petitions are nothing more than a waste of electrons and time. Nobody is going to take this seriously, because it's nothing more than something to make some people feel good.

8. I Was Behind A Truck Yesterday - Bumper Stickers Were Very Obvious About Supporting Shooting The
 
opposition. One sticker said "Gun Control Means Using Both Hands". Look liked a young thirty something white supremacist driving it

That is why one has to be careful about some of these extremists. If I live across the street from this person and put out Dems signs I would have to hire a security guard for my dog and property. They will retaliate for even speaking out. Why do you think they want to carry their guns everywhere?.

13. We should round up all the 2nd amendment supporters and put them in camps. Then we'll be safe
 
I think we should start with those who support gun ownership right here at DU. I mean the right wing crazies - they are visible. We know who they are. We know how dangerous they are. But a DU Gun Owner? Someone who pretends to support liberal policies while quietly supporting Violent Takeover by the White Supremacist Movement? They are the real danger, because we don't know really know what they are after. Their true plans are not completely known. And thus they are the most threatening.

23. K&R

I agree that it is the right-wingers who make up most of the racist and white-supremacy contingent in this country, and that they are armed and dangerous.

My concern, however, is for the Liberals who have been taken in by the NRA's fear mongering and lies about "the Democrats are coming for your guns." This very vocal minority aids and abets the NRA and the Koch Brothers with their resistance to any sort of meaningful gun control legislation, and permits the continued "private sale" of lethal weapons to criminals and the mentally ill.

That is EXACTLY how those types think. I live in one of the worst areas for white supremacist groups. That is exactly how they are thinking. They even put professors in colleges to teach things they believe are good, like eugenics. They have been quietly doing a shadow takeover of so many aspects of the government and other public institutions for years and no one is doing anything to stop them. It's about time more people open their eyes and see the truth no matter how far fetched they think it is. If they would read more about it at the SPLC web site they would start to put two and two together and realize just how widespread these types of practices are by these white supremacist groups. It is unconscionable what those groups are getting away with.

Has NU decided what toppings it wants?

We are seeing some of the true inner liberalness in the leftist DUchebaags recently. I would seriously like to have one of the stupid little fascists point out any person on the right advocating "taking out of leftists". Just one bit of proof. A link, a youtube, anything. They won't find it because it all comes from the left.

LUrking DUchebags, when you point a finger at me, three point back at you. You have proved that time and time again. However, I will not run from trouble but meet it with greater force.
