Democrats really won't be happy until they see body bags.

Labor reform will happen over "thousands of dead bodies."

WI teacher charged with death threats against Republicans, nobody in the MSM or Democratia cares.

Wonder what would wind up someone to want to kill Republicans?

[Mr. Perfect]

Nancy Pelosi wants GOP bill "snuffed out". Obviously when you say snuffed out, well what you really want is something more than a bill snuffed out.

Hey! Republicans are Nazis, and their legislative aim is to kill women!

Of course, Nazis who want to kill women, well we need to "snuff" people like that out.

If they are hellbent on snuffing the middle-class, violence is the only recourse.

If they are having their taxes taken , yes. Maybe. Most sorta don't ( pay taxes , I mean) .

I don't see what someone earns as being a function of a few. Nobody was bitching when we were having our cake and eating it , too. I dont think too many fingers ought to be pointed when the bill comes due ( to mix two metaphors). You have a responsibility to move or even de- civilize before using violence over money , IMHO. Whether other people agree or not ( history shows they don't) , I have to live like that. If not , if money authorizes me to be violent , then all your bases are belong to us. Not gonna do it. Of all the reasons to kill , money is the shittiest. We aren't owed a thing.

That's nothing, my pioneer Grandfather had to walk to school in the snow, uphill both ways, walking along the tops of the fence posts because the snow was so deep.

So Tinker, when you previously objected to "violent" rhetoric you were just lying?

Waitaminute , let's get the meme straight here , we are running into confusion. Will the people rise up in righteous anger or not ?

When I say poor here and contrast it with soft , I am talking bread- riot poor , streets of Cairo poor. We are both soft compared to them. They lash out for poor reasons because they have nothing to lose. The danger with the soft is that they will lash out in anger when they lose much less. Workplace shootings as a national theme comes to mind. Hint: it's about status ,self image and the inability to cope with the middle class being phased out I would dearly love to be wrong about that and have been gladly surprised that things haven't been more violent. But we have a long , long way to go.

The danger in the US is not an organized uprising so much as spree violence on a large scale , multiplied. We have spoken on this at length. No , people will not likely rise up in righteous anger. But they might bring their AR and go out in a blaze of glory. Egos are too fragile , pressures have been too high for too long , and none of the coping mechanisms work right. But any out of the box revolution eats serious gunfire and you know it. Could something form in an eat led environment ? Bet your ass , and that is also a core thesis. Tge American people are not politically violent on a large scale and are not one step from it. Yet. But again , under the right circumstances and with enough pushing , you could have the worst civil war/ anarchy ever seen in a modern nation.

When we have been unduly deprived of life and liberty , says the classic thinking , then violence becomes acceptable. I submit to you that both indeed have been much diminished. I am not killing people over that. If I felt such was justified , it would have already happened. Anybody else that doesnt feel that way better get cracking. Time's a- wasting.
