Ft Collins, CO –-(Ammoland.com)- “There are no absolute ‘Rules of Conduct,’ neither in peace, nor war. Everything depends on circumstances.” ~ Leon Trotsky
In the wake of the El Paso, TX and Dayton, OH shooting incidents of last weekend, nauseating verbal outbursts from Democrat/socialist politicians, including presidential aspirants, are expected.
Their personal conduct is worthy of them.
They, along with media leftists, invariably advocate for private ownership of firearms in America to end, by force (and have, consistently, since WWI).
Nothing in the current “debate” is new.
“Keep that s**t on the battlefield,” says RF “Beto” O’Rourke.
His self-righteous pronouncement is curious, since he has personally never been anywhere near any species of “battlefield” in his entire rich-kid life, has never served, has never worn his Country’s uniform, never fired a shot in anger.
He then added that it would take ‘direct action” and “civil disobedience” to force the left’s objective of all-inclusive government confiscation of privately-owned guns in America.
The term, ”direct action,” originated with the Weather Underground (1960-70s) and other violent leftist political activists, including present-day ANTIFA, as a code-word for rationalizing physical violence they habitually employ to force the left’s political goals upon reluctant citizens.
“Direct action” suggest that he and other Democrat politicians, unable to coerce their anti-Second-Amendment agenda through “regular” means, have no hesitation with regard to employing masked, black-clad ANTIFA thugs to violently terrorize CCW permit-holders, gun retailers, NRA members, all the time rationalizing these criminal acts by labeling us “Enemies of the People,” much as did Chi Guevara, Bill Ayres, and Leon Trotsky.
Will our Constitution and our Supreme Court protect us?
We have clearly seen that our politicians won’t.
“Revolutions are always verbose.” ~ Leon Trotsky, again

Trump is, once again, speaking before thinking. Right after the shootings he talked about banning guns now he is talking about increased background checks. Neither one would have prevented any of the shootings but he is falling for the progressive script. The democrat talking heads have been ruthless in the blame game and accuse Trump of twitting rhetoric that causes these shootings. They claim negative comments stir these loonies up and cause them to shoot. What does the democrat negative rhetoric do, then? We know the democrats took fathers out of the home during the welfare program that Johnson did… Read more »
This country was founded by opposing the existing government. If you look back America (The Colonies) at the time of the Revolution, you’ll find that the “oppression” of the government of the individuals at the time was LESS than that we are experiencing today, and that the “Colonials” actually had more personal freedom under the British Rule of Royalty, than we do today under the Federal, State and even most local governments. I remember the Soviet Union of the 50’s and 60’s and the stories we were told of life there and then and it was hard to believe that… Read more »
“Direct action” is a poor idea. It will be hard to recruit confiscators after they see the result of the first couple of “direct actions”
Precisely…
I often wonder… just exactly WHAT will those anti-gun, anti-2nd Amendment idiots bring to the gunfight?
This is the Progs./Communists 2019 National Convention this past weekend and it’s sad and yet hilarious and worth the time to watch/laugh.
Oh BTW this is the takeaway from the Convention.
The DSA will not endorse another 2020 Dem candidate (cough Warren cough) if Sanders loses the primary.

@ GMB That is scary! I had no idea there was that many bobble heads in this country that would actually show their face at such a negative display of UN American practice. The moderator was,maybe, there to avenge someone that we bombed in the war. If this country is this bad just leave it, we are not going to hand over our property anyway so why exert the effort.
The election is coming up. So we have a little juice around here, temporarily. We better make a few nauseating outbursts of our own. Let us be heard the loudest. whitehouse.gov/contact I’ve been saying “No Second Amendment, no second term.” because it is not a lot of typing.
Thanks for reminding me; message sent.
“Will…our Supreme Court protect us?” Not holding my breath on that.
These fascist thugs are telling us exactly what they are planning to do–premeditation. When they do eventually pick on some of the wrong people, it shouldn’t be too hard to make a self defense and ‘stand your ground’ case. Never back down from these clowns. This stuff is going to blow up in their faces quite literally just like every other one of their temper tantrums but this time some people could get seriously hurt.
“When they do eventually pick on some of the wrong people, it shouldn’t be too hard to make a self defense and ‘stand your ground’ case.”
In this day and age, it will be a redux of George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin. I can see the headlines now:
“Gun-toting alt-right white supremacist shoots and kills peaceful anti-fascist protester!”
Allow me to expand on this a bit. More likely to read: “Gun-toting alt-right white supremacist shoots and kills peaceful anti-fascist protester while defending his family in his home with threats of death”.
“Civil disobedience” over people not being obedient to the Almighty State? Lmao. The only civil disobedience that’s coming is when gun owners tell these wannabe Stalins to go pound sand.
They tell me that you never hear the bullet with your name on it. Seems like a lot of commies are wanting to find out if that is true or not.
