Think about it. During the Obama presidency the democrats weaponized several government agencies against citizens, in blatant, overt violation of the Constitution. There were almost no consequences for this, in any of those cases.

Can you really blame them for thinking, "You don't like it? Tough, we have tanks, what are you going to do about it?"

To make what happen? You're being pushed toward some armed revolt against the government?

Could you explain exactly what one could interpret as "the government" has done that is hostile enough to you for this to seem anything less than 100% insane?

7 pages on a topic that will never happen. The ultra left protesters of ANTIFA are violent they are not the mainstream Dems. Just like the ultra right wing is not the mainstream GOP. No step back from the computer and engage people not on a message board and come back to us and see if the US is ready for civil war.

Who would have thought that having the Presidency, the House, and the Senate would push them over the edge more than 8 years of Obama did?

Apparently you weren't born until after the Obama presidency. It's not my job to educate you. Just know this: the constitutional rights of every American were violated with Obamacare. The Obama administration violated the Constitution with Fast and Furious. Tens of thousands, if not millions of Americans' constitutional rights were violated in the IRS scandal. The FBI/DOJ spying scandal violated Trump and his team's constitutional rights, which ultimately resulted in an attempted coup d'état, overturning the results of a free and fair election, which should be an abomination to all Americans, regardless of party.

You may not see this, you may not agree with any of it, but you'd be wrong. Americans see this for what it is, whether you do or not, and many are preparing for the worst.

It won't be folks like me taking to the streets, no. They will come for me.

Local government, County and State LEO'S won't support the SJW'S trying to arrest the pastors for hate crimes. This will be a let's say Booker Administration with SJW's wearing US Marshal badges. Or ATF agents coming for guns when we don't turn them in.

That is when it will be on.

Substitute Obama for Booker and I've heard all this before. In 2008 and again in 2012.

If DJT is impeached and removed from office, there will be some localized protests, maybe a stray dumbass who attacks a government official. However, it is completely insane to think there will be full scale revolt.

The vast, vast majority of Americans will care more about how it impacts their paycheck, retirement, summer vacation, what sports are on that night, etc etc.

Yelling revolution is just as bad as yelling #resist.

Lowest unemployment in years. Lowest crime rate in years. Tax cuts. Lowest illegal immigration in years. Wages are increasing.

You want to frick all that up with a civil war

Spends 8 years grasping for anything that could lead to impeachment. Wins Presidency. Immediately begins living in fear of civil war because of impeachment.

No, you just fail to acknowledge that I perfectly demonstrated that the democrat party and it's leadership wipe their arse with the constitution. Don't misunderstand, the republican party has their very own issues with it as well, which should help to bring some of this into focus for you.

When all three branches of government give nothing more than lip service to the Law of the Land, one shouldn't be surprised when you hear more and more rumblings of civil unrest, violence, and revolution. It's just where we are, unfortunately.

nah, you just asserted. asserted something that doesn't come close to justifying armed revolt to any sane person, especially when the regime responsible for it is hopelessly out of power

Not really. I go to work every day, just like anyone else. I do make it a priority to be able to protect and defend my family and loved ones, so there has been some work done there, and provisions made. Make of it what you will, but my family won't be digging through trash, and eating dogs if things get ugly. I'm just not the kind of person who can go around thinking "it will never happen to me", I've already had my share of "it."

No, you just asserted that being stripped of your rights as a human being doesn't justify opposing those doing it by whatever means necessary. To me, that is being a useful idiot.

You also just asserted that those with no regard for the Constitutional rights of others are somehow hopelessly out of power, and nothing could be further from the truth. Regardless of the party in power, it is the bureaucracy that many like to refer to as the "swamp" these days. Sure, the legislature and their minions are part of it, but for the most part out right corruption there will be exposed to the bleach of sunlight. It's the anonymity of bureaucracy, and the protection it provides that truly allows corruption to flourish.
