Republican “Patriots” Terrorize America with Calls for Armed Insurrection

9. And they do this because they think they can get away with it.

For right now it is rhetoric and they can get away with it by using free speech...and the media propagates their concerns all the time.
And they are convinced that the left is a bunch of weaklings that are scared to shit of guns and all they have to do is dress in camouflage and Carry their assault rifle and we will just give up and do what they say.
I once had a right winger post a photo of a person point an assault rifle that was labeled "Intimidation, if you do it right you don't have to fight"...and that is what it is all about...for now.
And among them there are the sociopaths nut cases ready to lead an army of severely manipulated people to start the killing that they have dreamed of...
And the leaders of this party may well be willing to sacrifice them to win....or like Jim Jones to keep from losing.

I hope this never happens...but the only way I see to prevent it is for reasonable people stand up to it before it gets to that stage...and speak out loudly and often and demand the media attention....and backed up by many thousands of people that are willing to protest against it.
Progressives needs a leader that will actually lead and willing to stand up to the intimidation and be backed up by OWS and all of us.
Standing up to bullies is the only way to defeat them...if you ignore them, do what they say, or hide from them they will only get worse and do it more.
