Republican Newsletter Calls For "Armed Revolution"

[Wikkiwallana]

Registered Democrat and gun owner here.

I say "Let them come."

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.

Please educate yourself.

I'm a sane right winger (I know to some of you on NSG, that might be a contradiction.)... I won't think of "revolting" against a fairly elected President unless he drastically curves my rights as guaranteed by the Constitution.

This. Right here. This.

[Nordengrund]

I am in favor of a revolution, but a prefer a non- violent revolution. I only believe in a violent one as a last resort.

[Wikkiwallana]

There are several instances where twats actually do make good on their threats.

They're pretty few and far between.

Not few and far between enough.

[Wikkiwallana]

He's not the first to say so recently, nor is he likely to be the last.

I've seen people on both the left and the right make such calls.

And?

[Jewcrew]

And that's why I'm Jewish.

The more of the Bible I see, the less I want to pay an ounce of attention. I'm an agnostic currently leaning favorably towards Buddhism.

The whole problem with a layman (no insult intended) reading the Torah is that people much wiser than you or I have been arguing over the book for thousands of years.

For instance, while the death penalty seems to be given out rather liberally in Jewish holy books, one can't help but notice a lack of the death penalty in Judaism for thousands of years, despite the extreme levels of religious observance in Judaism up until Enlightenment. This is because it is almost impossible to actually give someone the death penalty in Judaism, requiring the following:
Two witnesses were required. Acceptability was limited to:
Adult Jewish men who were known to keep the commandments, knew the written and oral law, and had legitimate professions;
The witnesses had to see each other at the time of the sin;
The witnesses had to be able to speak clearly, without any speech impediment or hearing deficit (to ensure that the warning and the response were done);
The witnesses could not be related to each other or to the accused.
The witnesses had to see each other, and both of them had to give a warning (hatra'ah) to the person that the sin they were about to commit was a capital offense;
This warning had to be delivered within seconds of the performance of the sin (in the time it took to say, "Peace unto you, my Rabbi and my Master");
In the same amount of time, the person about to sin had to:
Respond that s/he was familiar with the punishment, but they were going to sin anyway; AND
Begin to commit the sin/crime;
The Beth Din had to examine each witness separately; and if even one point of their evidence was contradictory - even if a very minor point, such as eye color - the evidence was considered contradictory and the evidence was not heeded;
The Beth Din had to consist of minimally 23 judges;
The majority could not be a simple majority - the split verdict that would allow conviction had to be at least 13 to 11 in favor of conviction;
If the Beth Din arrived at a unanimous verdict of guilty, the person was let go - the idea being that if no judge could find anything exculpatory about the accused, there was something wrong with the court.
The witnesses were appointed by the court to be the executioners.

Which is part of the reason why the death penalty has only ever been given once in Israel, reserved for Adolf Eichmann, and the moral implications of Adolf Eichmann's execution are still debated to this day.

What sort of revolution, and why?

[Jewcrew]

I've seen people on both the left and the right make such calls.

And?

And I think such calls are hardly newsworthy. Both sides make such calls, and such people are fringes. Until people are being rounded up and put into labour camps for their views or genetics, there isn't much to worry about.

Says someone who in another thread claimed he'd be a fascist dictator.

It's never a good idea to take your eyes off the crazies.

Why do we need a revolution?

I've got national socialist groups right here in Winnipeg that I ignore all the time, and so does the media. They haven't made any strides towards becoming mainstream.

Although I have considered 'having a party' with them.

The second we find something better, I'm jumping on!

Good lord, Winnipeg. As a Canadian-American, I can fairly compare Sask to the American South. Well, the 'South' of Canada, at least. Maybe Manitoba is a little worse.

If Obama again

No more Guns

No more 2nd amendment

Taxes raised more

77.8 millions out of work

A liberal/socialist kingdom

FIGHT FOR LIBERTY NOT LIBERALISM FORWARD

Vote Romney/Ryan 2012

Nope. Nice try.

On the topic at hand: Isn't that sedition and conspiracy to commit a crime? Methinks that somebody has earned himself a call from the FBI.

No, it's not sedition. Advocating violent revolution is actually illegal in the US under the Smith Act. We're not prosecuting because it's just one guy, AFAIK.

[Person012345]

Yeah, the bible does that. Making someone actually read the bible can be a pretty good way of deconverting people from christianity.

Excuse me, but DON'T say Romney/Ryan will bring liberty. You can vote for them, and campaign for them all you want. Liberty is NOT drug prohibition, abortion prohibition, gay marriage prohibition, immigrant prohibition, or anything else conservatives want to BAN. If you were a RP supporter, I would respect you, but don't even think about calling what the typical conservative wants "liberty".

[Nordengrund]

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.

I don't live in Virginia anymore, but I am from there and I share your opinion.

I am from South Carolina, but I also agree to this.

are you suggesting that Obama is a Monarchist?!



Oh the 77.8 million out of work, no second ammendment and no more guns stuff is unbelievably is stupid too.

Obama might raise taxes, but meh. High taxes are good if you put them heavily in the right places

[Genivaria]

Name one leftist in the US who has called for violent action against conservatives.
