Why is he not under arrest for incitement to violence?

This man is a coward. He wants other people to do the dirty work.

The continental congress wasn't starving with George. Happens every time.

I know it's meant to be a threat, but he really makes it sound like he's at our mercy. It will only be bloodless if WE allow it.

Those people scattered hard when one of their's died on January 6th. None of them really know how bad it gets in countries that actually go through revolutions. Not that we shouldn't be prepared to protect ourselves, but they have no wherewithal to follow though to the end.

Revolutions are easy. You attend some rallies, you put some flags on your truck and you repost some memes on Facebook. If things get really dire, you change your profile picture for like a day or so.

Very few do, no matter the "side", and those with the skills & training to do so all too often eat their own guns after the dust settles. In war, the only victors are the ones pushing pawns. Every single other creature is a victim to it, in one way or another.

This is very wise. People let their blood get too hot to see they're in the boiling pot.

It's because they're the go along to get along cowards who end up ignoring the flesh scented ash falling from the concentration camp constructed 15 miles outside of their hometown because admitting they were wrong would mean they accept responsibility for their complicity.

The important part is to go after him and other people in leadership. They was us to fight the local maga crowd, not them. Fighting the local maga crowd gets us nowhere.

My local maga crowd is harassing a local teacher for having rainbows in the classroom. I'll keep fighting both.

Nobody ain't scared of them.

lol. They want folks to step aside so they can seize power and then use that power to subjugate the people they’re threatening violence against. But, you know, later it’ll be institutional violence.

Those fuckers deserve a drink. A Molotov Cocktail.
Heh. “On the house!”

"Official Act" violence. Can't wait.
