Radical idiots from both sides of the spectrum are now issuing death threats to Congressmen, taking part in vandalism, and there are many that are taking about an impending revolution, which makes me laugh. First off, these heroes have relatively few supporters, while the military has millions available for service. Next, they have crappy rifles and Ford trucks, while the US military has automatic weapons, tanks, missiles, rocket launchers, helicopters, etc. In addition, these aren’t the Patriots of the American Revolution (those men were actually led by intelligent leaders and had the support of foreign powers) or even the Confederates of the Civil War (their leaders were also pretty intelligent and they too had some foreign support because of the cotton industry in the South).
Here is the best case scenario for any rebellion: they have uprising in several cities around the US before they are arrested by the cops and are thrown in prison for at least trying to instigate anarchy and endangering the lives of other Americans and the movements break apart because they realize they are losers and wouldn’t last a second if they were standing in front of an Abrams tank.
I don’t understand all of this violent rubbish coming from anonymous weirdos on the internet or on the phone; they don’t seem to have the balls to put themselves in public, unlike the Patriots of the Revolution. Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington actually had real grievances, along with the other revolutionaries of the time, and they sure as hell weren’t afraid to be public about their beliefs and didn’t threaten other people.
Ron Paul doesn’t even want to associate himself with those people. He is actually a real patriot who doesn’t threaten people like a coward.
Brothers in the Civil War fought against each other, so I am pretty sure there are some servicemen who would take up arms to fight idiots who are threatening their families and innocent Americans.
Okay, I have nothing against the Tea Party movement in itself, as long as it remains peaceful. If its members behave and don’t use violence, they will become more influential.
