Thomas Paine wrote in his 1776 pamphlet Common Sense, when struggling to defend rights against tyranny, “it is the violence which is done and threatened to our persons … which conscientiously qualifies the use of arms”. Antifa has committed far more violence than we should allow.
Armed resistance still finds plenty of support across the US’s political culture The right to resist tyranny and grave injustice was well understood by the 18th-century American revolutionaries, who drew inspiration from John Locke’s Second Treatise of Government, published in 1689. Locke argued that if rulers exceeded their constitutional authority, the people would in principle be justified if they resorted to armed revolt. And when he drafted the American Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson treated this idea as “self-evident”.
Our election was stolen by radicals. Armed revolt is justified. Are there enough patriots to stand up.
Right, so the problem (one of many) with "armed" revolt in today's America is this: the radical left, the deep state, and the Agenda 21 globalists have conquered America on the LOCAL level. Meaning, THEY have implemented their cultural and globalist and fascist hell on We The People through thousands of our own local county/school board/city governments. They did not start at the top and work their way down to the average Jack and Jill American. No, they changed our communities and eventually our entire nation, from the lowest government level upward.
So how are we going to "fight" (with arms) the ten thousand headed beast that is Agenda 21 and their green commie democrat and blue belly republican domestic allies? We'd need a TRAINED militia in every town/borough/county/school district. Last I checked, the machinery of law enforcement is still functioning. Thus, if you form your local militia and set about taking back your local area from the bad guys I promise you that local, state and federal law enforcement special response teams will swoop in and kill you and your resistance force or arrest you and throw you in prison for life.
The way it unfortunately is and has been working is the bad guys get to radically change our way of life while we get crushed by our own government if we resist. If you've got some way around this reality, please let me know.
