WOLVERINES!

Freepers write on the prospect that handguns can defeat Obama's army when the Civil War comes:

Chode is totally noble:

if [my gun] only takes out ONE traitor to this country before i go down, than it's done it's job... and there's one less traitorous bastard to hurt anybody else while going against their oath to defend this country from all enemies foreign AND DOMESTIC!!!

knarf is pretty sure America is just like the Inquisition or something:

ACORN (and the like) is the 5th column.

The czars make up the Star Chamber.

Soothesayer sounds just like Clint Eastwood! So cool:

I have nothing to lose. I can die tomorrow before or after breakfast. Just say the word.

AFPhys is sad because his family won't shoot Commies with him:

I know that I, too, will NOT be a slave, even if some of my family and friends will consign themselves to that fate. I will do what I can to protect them - even if I am 98 years old.

Someone brings up the effectiveness of the French Resistance, which pisses off Covenantor who knows the French are all pussies!

Resistance, yeah sure, that explains that whole Petain Vichy thing when French Police and militia's rounded up Jews for their German overlords.

And more than half of air dropped supplies ended up in the hands of the communist tireurs who were turning in right wing resistance groups when they weren't murdering them outright.

The whores of Place Pigalle showed more resistance then the average frenchie

2ndDivisionVet writes in 2009 about how the 2010 election is never going to happen:

Have you noticed the politicians (especially the Democratic Leaders and Chairmen) acting like they could care less what their constituents (or the “Blue Dogs”) want? Could it be that they know that something between now and November 2010 will keep elections from happening? There's not another explanation that I can think of, can you? What would've sounded extremely paranoid a year ago is fast approaching a reasonable theory, IMO.

RKBA Democrat, in a rare moment of Freeper self-awareness, sums it up quite well.

All this talk of grabbing a rifle and such is really just preening and posturing amounting to nothing. As I learned many years ago in gun politics, the folks who would say “they’ll take my gun out of my cold dead hands” were really saying “I want to sit on my ass and watch while someone else does the heavy lifting.” And the irony is, if it really came down to a confiscation scenario, you can bet that these same “patriots” would show up two hours early to turn in their guns so as to beat the crowds.

These kinds of threads are a waste of time and counterproductive. All they do is allow a few people to puff up their chests and say how they’ll dramatically do something (idiotic and suicidal) “someday.” Worse, they allow our opponents to point to conservative websites and use them to paint conservatives as violent and extreme.

The irony is that we know that this ill-defined “someday” is never going to come, and that these same individuals who are doing the posturing and preening will still be sitting on their asses doing nothing useful ten years from now.
