The upsurge in rioting, looting, destruction and violence in cities across the country won’t just peter out, as many hope. Sadly, mainstream media outlets refuse to cover the actual news, while Democratic politicians actually express solidarity with those who are burning down our cities. It’s become obvious to one and all: The left media and so-called progressive Democrats would rather see urban bonfires than lose to Donald Trump in November.
Asked recently about 59 straight days of protests and violence in Portland, New York Rep. Jerry Nadler called reports of Antifa rioting there a “myth.” Not to be outdone, House

Should what this editorial describes possibly happening, with Democrats taking control, I see the military taking over. This is how revolutions happen in Latin America. If not that, then an uprising of all gun owners. It’s going to get bad and all because the Democrats lost in 2016. I wonder what’s in store for Democrats and rioters if Republicans take complete control in 2020. Democrats and the media will be whistling in the wind.

The cities are nothing to me. What's been the straw that broke the camel's back has been the political murder.
They had their Floyd George. Their Trayvon Martin. Their Michal Brown. All died while committing crimes - in the second two on my list, crimes of violence against people who were fortunately armed against. The first, from his record, ALSO a man fully capable of violence was so hopped up on drugs, that he died, it looks like, from a medical condition, which may or may not have been exacerbated by the treatment the local officer gave him.
And at the Democrats' command, MILLIONS in damages from rioting. Hundreds hurt. Police specifically targeted and sometimes killed, just for being police. Liberal run colleges and Liberal Media, trampling the First Amendment. Using violence against anyone they disagree with in forums that were specifically protected to encourage debate and the expression of ideas has been made a bully pulpit for propaganda and hatred.
And now Bernell Trammell.
A black man, honestly peaceful, whose only crime was supporting a Republican. Murdered in secret by an assassin for his beliefs.
Civil War 2.0? I'm almost... EAGER...

CW II is already on. It started inauguration day 2016 when the Deep State refused to allow President Trump to govern without constant lying, fraud, and harassment.

American politics is historically rooted in conflict and occasional outbreaks of violence, from the Tea Party and Boston Massacre to Seattle and Portland. This country is almost perpetually under some level of attack from within, from John Brown's "Bloody Kansas" through Haymarket Square to the Weatherman Underground, Boston Marathon and now Portland. That's the way it was and is.
American politicians are enablers, with any number willing to accept violence as a legitimate means of expression, such as the current Portland riots. They are very good at waving about bloody shirts to rile the general population to their cause. Today mass media holds the larger key, serving as promoter and censor of events, arbiter of what's acceptable in society at the moment.

It's perplexing to me as it is to most Americans, that Democrat inspired vandals are burning, destroying and looting Democrat metropolitan and inner city areas ... and somehow this is because of white privilege. Most of the Antifa types are white and live in affluent suburbs.
Head scratching!! These people are insane. Democrats seem to be insane!

In first American Civil War when the Reb shot the Yank or the Yank shot the Reb neither was dragged to court and put on trial for murder it was stack up bodies like cord wood and the winner was the righteous shooter. If the armed citizen is attacked then let us have the same rights as the property destroying rioters. You loot we shoot should be the law of the land. I defend my family, home and property I don't want to be hassled and go broke defending my actions. Fair is fair rioters are arrested and back at the scene of riots in 24 hours I want to be able to do that if I shoot one. It will be a very short Civil War 2.0.

No, the war hasn't even started yet because the winning side is not yet on the battlefield. The looting and burning riff-raff won't know what hits them when it does happen.

Sure looks like it's happening. True Americans need to wake up and stop this progressive madness.

I've said before that people who love this country need to seriously start organizing and forming militias, which are a constitutionally protected action. The left is organized. Their paramilitary groups are fomenting and escalating the violence, including vicious assaults on our police and federal agents.
We need to get organized and prepared to openly battle these leftist units. They stand NO chance if we do this. Our local, state, and federal law enforcement are completely handcuffed by their ridiculous "rules of engagement" (i.e., stand there and take it, because...political reasons...). It's time to get real. Our militias will ultimately be the difference.

Get out your flintlock and oil up the action...stock some extra flints and some black powder, patches and lead balls...the time is coming...if Paul Revere rides through your village yelling 'the Democrats are coming' will you stand up or sink to your knees?

Not yet. When it really starts, the leftists will howl as they go down. So far, in 99% of the country, law enforcement is working just fine.
Too bad some patriots in Seattle and Portland don't go down and "reciprocate" a bit against these leftist criminals.

Most of us are armed, some heavily, and are just waiting. I dont care about the cities. What I care about is defending my country and having it prosecute me for the sacrifice. I care about taking a stand and finding I am standing alone, having believed the promises of armchair generals and internet warriors. I have a lot to lose and I'm not going to lose it for nothing.
Let the crazies and those with nothing to lose get things started. I'll pitch in when it will make a difference.

Agree with #13. However I am older Texan and would consider it an honor to go down in a blaze of glory.

The virus is maybe the final stake to the heart of the whole idea of cities. Malls were on the ropes before the virus. Many white collar workers discovered there is little reason to do the tour of duty in downtown. Movies are on the verge of following the malls. More people are cooking so overpriced restaurants are a luxury for many. What's left the urban school systems, the festering homeless maniacs? Now add destruction that will stand for decades. At the root of all of it are preening rat morons who have zero leadership or experience in anything. Will anyone notice if rat led cities devolve to brownfield ruins?
The mentally ill children who are running around smashing things with skateboards are simply incapable of building anything. They can't do anything except destroy and THIS is the lot rats protect. My contempt for anyone stupid enough to vote for a rat in any office is off the charts.NO excuse for being that willfully stupid.

If burning their own cities to the ground is how they are going to conduct their 2nd Civil War, I wish them every success. Just don't let any of them contaminate Free America.
