The threat posed by right wing militias

[Invisibleflash]

Are they a real threat?

Are they just overgrown kids playing "war"?

One thing I can say for sure is that they take themselves seriously.

From the leaders of one of the larger groups:

“The next election won’t be decided at a Ballot Box,” an AP3 leader wrote several months ago in a private Telegram chat. “It’ll be decided at the ammo box.” He has said he is ready to force his way into voting centers if need be, or “whatever it takes.”

“The Jan 6 event made the movement look weak and uncommitted,” one wrote a year and a half after the riot in a secret channel. “Had the house been taken for real and held we would all be in a different world.”

Personally I think people openly planning violence need to be in prison.


What do you think?

Armed and Underground: Inside the Turbulent, Secret World of an American Militia

Rounding up migrants. Lists of “friendly” sheriffs. Debating political assassinations. Internal messages reveal AP3's journey from Jan. 6 through the tumultuous lead-up to the 2024 election. One member predicts: “It’ll be decided at the ammo box.”

I doubt if James Hodgkinson or Stephen Paddock or Thomas Crooks were militia members but it makes good camouflage for the left wing menace in American politics.

Trump & his goon squads are the menace & they'll both have their asses handed back to them come November.

some leftwing groups are calling for mass violence ...

Like?

and no group on Jan 6th attempted to take congress members hostage ..

So the zip ties were just incase they had to neaten up some cabling or somethng?

 

[Crepitus]

will you condemn the 10s of thousands of leftwing anti Semites about to cause trouble in Chicago ?

Again, are they threatening to take members of congress hostage?

You just swim in a sea of projection, don't you.

And what if they refuse to go?

The issue of guns in society is all about protecting the people from bad government. A last resort. But in the Americans we've seen so many coups, just not in the US or Canada, and people with guns who think they're taking down a bad government will erect what government in its place?

That's always been the problem. But in the past people maybe understood what it meant. Now, I'm not so sure. People don't understand rights, don't understand the Constitution, they make everything fit their narrative and they BELIEVE.

And what if they refuse to go?

Do you not know how law enforcement works?

 

[Frankeneinstein]

Do you not know how law enforcement works?

no, if they refuse to go what can be done?

 

[Crepitus]

no, if they refuse to go what can be done?

They'll get their chance to have the fight they claim to want.

WTF are you trying to get at?


Quit beating around the damn bush like a coward and say what you mean.
