Stupid is as stupid does. Most people who have weapons aren't going to shoot anyone like most Muslims aren't terrorists. There is a minority in each group and others who aren't quite right in the head and ultimately seek a place in the Annals of Darwin Awards Heroes, removing their genetic and social influence on the species. What we have is more people like IJTSSG who complain and push others out to the front line. "Patriots" like Trump who find a metaphorical heel spur but support the effort in words.

Those people seem to forget how a losing revolution goes after it's done. "I remember you, you wanted this mess". They cry for war or at least encourage it and then beg us for mercy. Thing is that even people who embrace mercy understand justice and when there is blood everywhere sometimes justice is incredibly harsh, even fatal. "Don't tread on me" is something these foolish types ought to remember came from people who were for the most part peaceful. If supporters of would-be tyrants strike then they will be met with reality and they will not like it.

Please give an example of where I've done that.

Shit you might as well say UglyCasanova 3 times. We can learn how it’s the fault of liberals and non whites this man posts crap like this.


Thanks for calling me out and misrepresenting me and anything I’ve ever said, especially when I wasn’t even posting in this thread.

Okay, someone just pointed out maybe the funniest thing about this. King's own state is on the 'losing' side so he's basically bragging about how people from other states are going to come in and murder his constituents.

Damn, sounds like they need to vote for him again until his vision is realized! :oops:

If you were to overtly do that there's a chance the Secret Service would pay you a visit. Also, what I quoted is something any 1-month troll on the internet uses.

Your behavior suggests you exist to troll and as such any conflict would allow you to feed your ego. You know that the number of rounds isn't the point and so does King. It's to get people thinking favorably, his target audience of potentially violent white nationalists for support. I don't know if he's stupid enough to BE violent, but he is a white racist supremacist nationalist who isn't above using USING violence an the people who would do it. In a passive-aggressive way you simply "inform" us about numbers which really has nothing to do with King or your intent. You actively seek discord because you need to, but you are a microbe in a vast ocean waiting to be consumed and far worse off than a fish in a barrel.

In the end you may not care either way about a civil war (which isn't happening) but you sure will enjoy being able to use it on line.

Back into the ocean my diatom.

The meme is wrong-doesn't show Red China or Russia easily conquering the winner.

The stuff King is spouting is the same crap southerner's did in the 1850s.

thats a racist statement.

No, it is simply pointing out the indisputable fact that the primary problem with violence and terrorism that the USA faces is white, right-wing extremism. They are responsible for more than 70% of all mass murder incidents in this country, and it isn't even close to comparable for any other demographic.

I thought that addressing an issue through the use of unassailable facts is how you begin objective discussions?

You really are a babbling idiot and who the fuck is Miller?

Maybe Steve King was feeling lonely, Omar getting all his press so now he gets his time in the barrel.

Time for a censure?

I find it amusing that IL is on the "Blue" side.
One one hand, you have everything that is an hour outside of Chicago being pretty conservative, rural and *VERY* hunting and gun friendly.
On the other hand you all of the gang violence and shooting in Chicago, so there can't be an absence of guns there either.

They included Michigan in there too. Hell some parts of Michigan shut down when hunting season starts. So there *can't* be guns there either.

So...yeah. But we aren't shitposting memes on twitter for facts sake now are we.

They aren't interested in facts. Waiting for Trump to tell them what to think and say.

Democrats really need to stop making conservatives think and say these things. Fucking Democrats are just so damn divisive. I am really sick and tired of all their divisive rhetoric. I mean JFC, just the other day Chelsea Clinton made that guy shoot up a bunch of Muslims with her hateful divisive rhetoric. It needs to stop. Hopefully we can find a second amendment remedy for this problem. And no I don't mean violence. Just something involving guns and ammo.
