Umno. Armed revolution is kinda treason. Considering most Republicans are nationalists from what I've seen, I don't see how that fits.

And worst of all, this article is from my state.

Same here. It almost makes me ashamed to be a Virginian. As long as stuff like this keeps up, all Southerners will continue to be classes as ignorant backwoods hicks.

"The views expressed were offensive," said Obama. "Rape is rape. And the idea that we should be parsing and qualifying and slicing what types of rape we are talking about doesn't make sense to the American people and certainly doesn't make sense to me. So what I think these comments do underscore is why we shouldn't have a bunch of politicians, a majority of whom are men, making health care decisions on behalf of women."

What does this have to do with revolution?

Don't worry bro... The Global Small Arms Ban Treaty will be signed into law immediately after Obama wins his second term. You will be easy pickings and the government will probably not compensate you for your property that they confinscate under the new Global law. This aside, I don't support this stupidity either, just wanted to comment on how both you and I will probably be screwed no matter who gets elected. We'll both be disarmed by violent and ignorant mobs of party partisans.

Second Amendment Remedies Lives!!
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

4.A liberal/socialist kingdom

5.FIGHT FOR LIBERTY NOT LIBERALISM FORWARD

6.Vote Romney/Ryan 2012

1 a & b. You'll have to provide sauce for that claim
2. Maybe, maybe not. Depending on what the taxes are, who they are towards and how big they are can mean those taxes couold end up being a good thing, or a bad thing. Also, Obama wants to lower taxes on middle income families.

3. Job growth is not as great as desired, true. But it is getting better, if ever slightly. Also, that many Americans won't go out of work unless there is a global economic depression, in which case it probably won't be Obama's fault because the ignition for that would probably be a economic collapse in Europe.
4. How cute.
5. This is what liberalism is. Please don't use words unless you know their meaning.
6. No.

2. No more second amendment-Also good
3. Taxes raised more-Even better
4. 77.8 million out of work-How is this worse than if Rommey got elected?
5. A liberal/socialist kingdom-Obama is not a socialist. I should know, I am.
6. Fight for equality and freedom
7. Screw both Rebulicans and Democrats vote for the socialist party of america


1) Please explain to me why no guns is good? Disarming the people of the nation is not good at all. We need a well regulated militia just in case the government fails to protect us. Gun safety courses are a better solution. If you want to be a gun owner, you have to take a gun safety course. Teach people that their actions have real life effects, and they'll be less likely to shoot each other up.
2.) The right to bare arms is a right, not a privilege, thus cannot be simply voted away. It is one of the original 10 rights provided by the Constitution. You think it's bad? Move to a place that doesn't allow guns. Don't take my right to own a gun away.
3.) Taxes raised more? A few years ago (before the stimulus) I would say that raising taxes was bad. But cutting doesn't work either. I say just throw the entire tax code out and rewrite it entirely.
4.) What can the government do to increase jobs? Nothing, except offer incentives to companies that produce their goods 100% in the USA.
5.) Obama has socialist leanings, however he could be a lot worse.
6.) Fighting for Liberty SHOULD include fighting for Social equality.

:palm:
1. yeah right the most powerful milatry in the modern world will fail to porctect us. what well regulated miltia? Guns just cause more death and violence in private hands. Oh, and you wanted to no why no guns was good may a direct you to the shootings of the past week or so?
2. The constitution can be amended it has been 27 times inculding an instance of an amendment made for the sole purpose of canceling anther one out. How can you still be talking about the right to own a gun after all the shootings?
3. Rewrite it so the goverment owns all the money then we will not have have economic problems
5. If by socialist leanings you mean he is a sane person then yes, but he could be a lot better. You seem to have trouble understanding what a socialist is read some of what Marx wrote then get back to me.
6. Freedom (liberty) is a form of equality.
7. Duh.

Yumyumsuppertime wrote:...if President Obama is re-elected.

Here's the relevant text as reported by PoliticsUSA:

President Obama, is a “political socialist ideologue unlike anything world history has ever witnessed or recognized,” and that the only option is “armed revolution should we fail with the power of the vote in November:” If one is confused as to what Republicans consider is a “political socialist ideologue,” the newsletter claims President Obama “shuns biblical praise, handicaps economic ability, disrespects the honor of earned military might,” and that under Obama, “the government is out of control, and this opportunity, must not be forsaken for we shall not have any coarse (sic) but armed revolution.”

Could this not potentially get them classed as a terrorist organisation or something similar?

Most Republicans are nationalists in the sense that they would be loyal if there was a Republican president, but are disloyal when the president is not Republican.

It's either going to go Pinochet's way or the way of the Beer Hall Putsch. Hopefully the latter, except they all get slammed with the death penalty instead of a pussy-footed 9 months in jail.

1.) The military isn't the government. It is a tool of the government. The government (I'm not saying it will) can turn on us and use the military to attack us and declare martial law. That is an instance of the government failing to protect us.
2.) The actions of Columbine and more recently Aurora Theater were instances that could of been prevented if they had been properly educated and had taken the proper courses I had talked about. The amendments that have been passed were for the "good" of the people. Prohibition failed that is why it was repealed. If you take away the people's right to own a gun, the overcrowding in our prisons will just get worse. I can't believe you're still arguing for taking away the right to own a gun.
3.) Rewrite it so the government doesn't have all the money and we will not have an economic problem either.
I like how you didn't address point number four.
5.) Obama is sane yes. However, so is Romney, and my personal favorite for the President, Ron Paul. Marxism is (correct me if I'm wrong) the more extreme form of Socialism. I do agree with the need for Health Care, but I think people should not be fined for not having it.
6.) Which is why fighting for Liberty SHOULD include equality.
7.) I'm not sure why you're adding more points to this, especially something as unintelligent as "duh"
