So talk of armed revolt against a legally elected government is just peachy keen with you people.
Perhaps you should take in consideration that there are far more of us that would react in kind, and see those trying this bullshit hung for treason.
I wouldn't say its "peachy keen," but I am not foolish enough to believe that there will never come another time when it is necessary (this country wouldn't exist if it weren't for such a time, and history has shown that all great countries periodically go through civil war and revolutionary periods).
That said, I don't think we're there yet, and I hope we don't have to get there in my or my child's lifetimes. But this country will most definitely get to that point again, and I pray that when we do, it marks a strengthening of our country, and not the end.
We're not there yet, but there is anger growing. These elections and this administration's reaction to the current environment will play a major role in the amplification or dissipation of that angst. To date, this administration, and this Congress, have unquestionably done more harm than good to the psyche and brotherhood of The People. They have fostered and magnified division among almost all sectors of our society. They have aggravated and used racial, social, financial, religious, philosophical, and almost any demographic quality imaginable to highlight and manipulate sentiment and further their agenda. More than any other administration and Congress in my lifetime, and perhaps more than any, they are far more about division than they are about E Pluribus Unum.
I'm not ready to take up arms and fight them. But I damn sure want them out of my Capitol Building, my Whitehouse, and my Government. There is a process for that, and until that process is proven to be broken, armed conflict is inappropriate and irresponsible. When the process IS broken, to NOT attempt to take back control would be irresponsible as well.
But again, we're not there yet. There is an election in November. Until elections are not allowed, or are not honored, we are not there yet.
