Revolt

[MikeK]

Tim McVeighs right wing terrorism showed that the country will crush any right wing revolutions. He was killed...Good! The State snuffed that garbage out

How have you managed to perceive what Timothy McVeigh did as a right wing gesture?

McVeigh's action was inspired and motivated by the Waco Massacre, which, in spite of the fact that it was sanctioned by a degenerate, supposedly left wing President via an incompetent freak Attorney General (Janet Reno), it was an act of totalitarian, anti-Constitutional aggression, perpetrated by a law-enforcement bureaucracy which is as right wing Conservative as it gets.

While I certainly do not approve of what McVeigh did, it was plainly a strike against what he perceived as the primary agent of an oppressively anti-Constitutional, politically Conservative government.

Was wondering, and you know this will one day happen.
When there finally is a revolt in the USA who will the military stand with.
Right now I do not think they all would stand with Obama--I know several in service now that absolutely have no respect for him and would have a hard time standing with Obama.

Most can't wait for this administration to be over. As bad as many of us think he is there will one day be someone worse. 50 year 100 years or 500 years like predicting doom and gloom with the climate sooner or later it happens.

Dearest Moron, the USA has a system of civilian control of the military for reasons that you fail to grasp

Consider 20th century evidence. There is no way in the world that the US Military today would ever surround a Taliban compound full of women and children and use tanks and poison gas and finally incinerate the whole lot. Yet the Clinton administration managed to use Military personnel against a religious sect in Waco Texas and kill everybody. The bottom line is where the media will stand and the media has always stood with democrat administrations.

Military personnel at WACO? The US lobs bombs at places filled with women and children. Crawl back under your rock

and Koresh was taunting the laws and our system. **** him

Maybe that is why Obama is trying to flood the military with gays.

Where does the US "lob bombs" at places filled with women and children today? The concept might escalate the war in Afghanistan if Hussein had the balls for it but he doesn't and he keeps blaming Bush when brave Americans come back in body bags.

Look at Kent State. President Washington started it early with the Whiskey Rebellion. For a time I was in a Military Police company. We practiced crowd control with fixed bayonets. Would we have fired on the crowd if ordered, I have no doubt of it.

Who ordered troops to Kent State?

The Whiskey Rebellion was bogus because as Washington pointed out it was not equivalent to the Revolution because they and representation in a republic. They were not colonists without true representation arguing with a far off government

Our people are fed well, clothed, almost all have a roof over their head.

Politicians that commit crimes are brought before the law to pay for their crimes.

Our government has tons of programs, paid for with tax dollars, to help the least among us and set up a safety net for when any of us hits the fan.

We have our disagreements but we have no need for a revolt nor a revolution.

Like the Founding Fathers?

They had some real grievances.

We don't today. And if we did, we have very productive and democratic ways to deal with them.

That's why we haven't had a revolution, peaceful or otherwise, since the late 1960s.

Um, yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaah....that's not exactly what happened there...you might want to take your 'issues' to the conspiracy forum...

another moron joins in?

actually the Founding fathers tried repeatedly and desperately to NOT revolt and start a new country. They used reason, rationality, and diplomacy

Which war was Clinton dealing with when he used the Military to incinerate Americans at Waco? The liberal media justified it and the low information lefties justify it today but it was an illegal act. When the media is in the administration's back pocket any illegal act can be justified.

there was no revolt in the 1960s unless you count the Weathermen fewer than a dozen committed kooks

The Civil Rights movement was a peaceful revolution that changed the course of this nation.

Their results are huge and continue to this day. Without this revolution the USA would look very different today.

Look at Kent State. .

What about it? 'Poor, innocent students' who had burned down their campus ROTC building and were hurling stones at poorly-trained national guardsmen managed to get a few of their number shot after trying damn hard to achieve that end.

Uhm, the civil rights movement started way before the late 1960s
