43% of Republicans could imagine supporting a military coup in the United States

Shows your mentality. Look up your genealogy. You might be surprised.

Use the Constitution to the right venue.

We gotta save the constitution by getting rid of this muslim blood trator, the liberal supreme court, and anyone who opposed repealing obamacare.

By GOD the founders wouldn't have had all these non-whites voting. We're gonna take back our country! Remember the Alamo!

So where is this poll, Boilmaker? In your head?

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

It seems we know where this group is headed.
It seems the Constitution means nothing to the "true" Americans.
"Republicans (43%) are more than twice as likely as Democrats (20%) to say that they could conceive of a situation in which they would support a military coup in the United States. Independents tend to say that they could not (38%) rather than could (29%) imagine supporting a coup."

You do know the colonial committees and the Continental Congress itself were extra-legal entities?

Do you know we became the United States of America! With a Constitution. Voted on and accepted by the original states!

After the facts.

A revolution

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Our history is one of a paranoid style of politics dictating revolt

Don't forget we have a Scumbag POTUS who called us "the enemy" and labeled veterans "right wing extremists"

Nope. Put down the crack pipe and back away.

Interesting...

Independents about 1/3 more likely to support a coup than democrats, and about 1/3 less likely than republicans.

Sounds like democrats are more willing to put up with bad government
than republicans or independents.

Unless I missed it I did not see in the OP who conducted this poll or a link to it kind of odd in my opinion.

It takes a lot to rile up a sheep.

You're worse than Starkey. Obama called Republicans the enemy and his administration labeled returning veterans right wing extremists

Evil people who would overthrow the Constitution and republic have always existed in America.

True and we call them Progressives. The Constitution has been a huge obstacle in their path

[g5000]

A DHS report said that right wing extremist organizations try to recruit veterans.

They did not label veterans as right wing extremists. The parrot called CrusaderFrank is talking out of his flaccid anal sphincter.
