The calls for violence are growing louder and louder by the day. The agitators are calling for the assassination of public figures and elected officials; they are calling for acts of insurrection by federal and local law enforcement.
These are actions that would very likely prompt a second civil war, but the agitators have no thought of that, or, on the few occasions when they register that possibility, seem somehow to think that their side would win.
The people making these calls for violence are, of course, all members of the "progressive" left. Jonathan Turley recently penned an interesting piece on those people.

Self-defense and retaliation on a massive scale, hopefully. That's what it's going to take.

"Get in their face"
"Violence is justified"
First heard them during the Obama years.
Another thing he can be thanked for.
Part of his hope and change.
Their supporters are parroting it.
Lefty politicians are parroting it because they want their supporter's votes.
They mean it. They are all on the same page.
Guarantee some of them will follow through on it.

Pray that it NEVER comes to violence. Once that cork is popped it will be near impossible to stop. Talk to veterans that have deployed to countries that have been torn apart by Civil War. NONE of them are like the one we had. NO uniforms. NO battlelines. NO 'rules'. Just random violence everywhere. Nothing available.
Everyone thinks they and their 'side' will come out on top and be the Lord Humungous, Ruler of the Wastelands when in truth most will be the dude on the back of the motorcycle with the dog collar on.

Agitator calls for insurrection could be illegal under 18 U.S.C. § 2383. AG Bondi should investigate all of the calls for insurrection. ASAP.

I'm in my 80's and I conceal carry, with a license, in a Constitutional Carry State. Hope I never need to defend myself or my loved ones, but I will if I have to!

FTA:
"There is one side that has a large proportion of the nation's military veterans, and one side that has all the guns - and knows how to use them.
That's what really makes these calls for violence from the left so absolutely insane. They call for political violence, they call for the assassination of elected officials, they call for attacks on other Americans - and they have no idea whatsoever how that would end up, and how they would be utterly, catastrophically on the losing end."
Yep, and that "one side" isn't these loony leftist morons like a shaved head female.

I think the left instigators are hoping Republicans will shoot somebody and thus be the guilty ones in touching off some chaos they can take advantage of to make their big changes. I know it sounds stupid but this is the left playbook. Usually they try it out with exceedingly poor and uneducated people. And that is how they see MAGA, which shows how cocooning yourself as they do causes failure. But this is where they think they are going imo.

If/when the balloon goes up, the right needs to have a list of people that should get focused attention. Make sure those calling for violence against conservatives are on it. And publish it. Might count for a measure of deterrence (add those activist judges too.). I'd be willing to help compile the list if someone PAID me...

Why do you think they encouraged all the illegal invaders into our country? This will be the 'army' they will use to try and defeat Americans. And when the invaders have been given free everything, food, shelter, health care and soon to come, guns and rifles, we might have a real fight on our hands. And this is why the progressives are screaming so loud about all of the invaders being sent back to their own countries.

When joe was in office (not president for real) his lefty buds wanted to criminalize speech by claiming it was "stochastic.*"
So, if anyone, ever, was violent AND had heard or read some Republican's speech, the violent person would be prosecuted!
Funny, how that "crime" went away now that dems are the ones calling for uprisings, arsons, etc.
*Stochastic terrorism is a form of political violence instigated by hostile public rhetoric directed at a group or an individual.
Stochastic terrorism is accomplished with indirect, vague or coded language, which grants the instigator plausible deniability for any associated violence.
The person carrying out the violence may not have direct connection to any other users of violent rhetoric.

Under Trump, somehow I get the feeling that anyone who calls for violence, whether they are members of Congress or not, is going to be carefully watched and monitored.

Anger is always fear, and fear is always fear of loss. These communists are the most angry I have seen anyone since the civil rights days. What do they fear losing? The average lib has no power, no prestige. No bribe money coming in. Thats just for politicians. Most libs are just big fat nobodies like the rest of us. So what do they fear losing that might cause them to commit mass suicide like starting a civil war would? I'm lost. Are their minds that controlled?

It's really quite simple. If the United States goes into a major and complete civil war, neither American side will win.

So far Maxine Waters and J. B. Phat Boy Pritzker. She is pretty old and JB is a candidate for the next Nadler Special gastric bypass surgery...after he eats a few more Subway footllongs and a cream pie or three

There would never be a civil war or anything close to it. Start taking a few of the more openly violent dirtbags and dirtbag groups off the board and enthusiasm will wane.
The left assumes that it owns the streets and the violence option, because for decades it has. We've allowed it. When that changes, and it's going to, it's game over.
