When we are finally broke and that is not that far away, and these people actually have to contribute to earn a living, that is when violence will be most likely as the left will try and get them to usher in the Communism that they seek
    Its the leftness and their mentality. Their Leaders showing they don't have to follow rules, protocols, Procedures, and Laws. That they are above the Law.

    Then there is the matter of the racism they play. Calling it Identity Politics. Then the games they play in the courts. Shutting down Free Speech. Then there is the matter of the Constitution that they have no trouble using as $#@! paper.


    They want open borders, they want to steal from the Rich and the Poor. Then that problem they have with being sore losers.


    Feast resistance.....aka Rebellion.


    Already they have the Main Stream Media acting as their propaganda tool. Just like Castro, Putin, and Lil Kim does.


    So it is getting close to that time. Again.....all it takes is a couple triggering events and then its going to jump off.
    History does not long Entrust the care of Freedom, to the Weak or Timid!!!!! Dwight D. Eisenhower ~

    It goes to the heart of how some perceive their political opponents. Myself and many liberals strongly disagree with their conservative counterparts, but rarely do we accuse them of being enemies or anti American. Certainly there are exceptions, but most of the violent rhetoric comes from a few on the right who seem to long for wiping out their perceived enemies.
    Anti-fa could set off a violent response. All wars are not started on purpose. I always note that Anti-fa is never attacked by liberals. Why is that? The liberals don't have to talk about it when they have Anti-fa and BLM doing their dirty work.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
    Pick your enemies carefully.

    I think Mr. Utley is spot on. I have no doubt there are factions within the country that would like nothing better than to see a shooting war start between the Left and the Right. I don't we are anywhere close to that, although I would not be surprised to see incidents of violence between the factions increase. There has been a significant increase in the use of violence by Leftists and we are probably not far at all from the point where force is going to be met by force. You can only push people so far before they start to push back.

    That is still a long way from open warfare.

    Tipping points are like that. When one is not quite to the tipping point one cannot see what is coming. Once the tipping point is passed everyone looking back will claim it was obvious.

    When war does come do you believe it will be sixty-year-olds against thirty-year-olds?

    I suppose we could be hopeful that everything will work out.

    So you would take out the "senior citizen" Americans that you see as a threat to you then?
