For me, that’s when I take up arms in defense of my country. There is no more talking at that point. I would consider that a soft coup.

If you want a civil war, court reform is how you get it. I am 100% not joking, it’s the point where I, as a normal everyday citizen, will get my rifle and take to the streets.

What is your line in the sand?

Stop calling it court reform. It’s propaganda and marketing to pack the court so they can talk about it publicly to garner support. If they outright say court packing, then they’re more likely to lose votes. So, call it what it is, friend.

I don’t think Court packing will do it.

My money is still on gun confiscation.

But again, as I’ve stated numerous times, the left knows this and will not come for the guns in a climactic swoop. They are not dumb. Instead, they will slowly suffocate gun ownership and gun use through a multi front step by step process. Research their plans. They are playing the long game on guns.

So, to sum up, I don’t think there will be any bright line in the sand. It will be muddled, and conservatives by and large will roll over and take it. The few who won’t will be made examples of, like Kyle, the McCloskeys, etc etc.

And freedom will die a slow death in America.

Who are you targeting if this comes to pass? Serious question.

I’m thinking that might be a lil bit outside the norm

My line in the sand is when it turns into a situation in which South Africa is experiencing.

My line should drawn way before that as it should for most others in this country but I'm only one person and can't rise up alone on my own

Their best trick is to pretend that they play by rules.

There will be “land reform” and property confiscation and redistribution in America in the years ahead.

Count on it.

Wealth redistribution is only one single part in social justice.

Politicization of the courts is the fall of democracy, regardless of political ideology. This constant back and forth on electing judges based on political ideology is a disgrace.

Exactly. It has already started. “Court packing” will be the death blow. At that point it’s clearly a power grab to create the laws that they see fit.

At that point we don’t have a country. Anyone saying they don’t believe me, why? There is no more America. The show is over. You can either accept that your rights are gone, leave, or fight. Those are your options.

When private ownership of guns is prohibited. At this point there is no peaceful way to go back.

Most other major issues have a chance to be resolved peacefully, because of the looming threat of citizens with guns. When those weapons are gone, the citizens will be steamrolled and we become China/South Africa/Nazi Germany, take your pick.

Overwhelming majority will accept.

A few will leave, a few will fight.

Assassination of political targets in DC and state capitals will be key.

Let's pretend 2 SCOTUS judges, 4 or 5 Dem senators, and 2 dozen Dem house members are gunned down over a 3 to 4 week period.

The government will effectively cease to function.

THIS. You are a fellow aware of the world he lives in. We need more like you.

OP, you really do need to change your thread title.
