Californians send brutal message to maxine waters

[Dan40]

It’s adorable when the party that’s totally out of power thinks they’ll be able to impeach President Donald Trump

And without any evidence of any law being broken.

It's ONE party in that city of insanity. The Progressive Elite Party.

They pretend they're divided but they are not. Or rather, they're divided, Insiders versus Outsiders. Trump didn't get in the approved way, and so they're waging war on him. RINO Lefties and crypto-Marxist Lefties.

They may well get enough on a head count. And charges do not matter - the voters have no say on this, no outsider has say on this. It is not under Judicial Review. All they need is to get enough of their kind of people to sign off on the false Bill of Particulars, and it's over.

The point was, the methods were far different.

The objectives were spelled out at the beginning.

There was no mindless rioting in the streets.

Boston Massacre.

There was resolute determination, and it was the British who fired first. And when they had enough, the shooting stopped.

No one in the Colonial Independence group was inveigling violence and payback.

Holy BatShit, Batman. You're fucking kidding, right?

The Sons of Liberty were NOTHING if not a street gang who enjoyed mob action against the British and the loyalists.

Boston Massacre.

The Boston Massacre was done by, wait for it...THE BRITISH.

Did it launch mindless rioting? Or did Washington drill and deploy his Minutemen - LOGICAL, INCREMENTAL steps to counter aggression?

Holy BatShit, Batman. You're fucking kidding, right?

The Sons of Liberty were NOTHING if not a street gang who enjoyed mob action against the British and the loyalists.

There are always rogue elements. My Lai. There are others, in just about every war.

Compare that to the Reign or Terror that Robespierre and the French revolutionaries, launched.

Did the Colonists do that? Or did they bid the Loyalists, to depart in peace, and wish them their chains rest lightly on them?




The question really isn't open to debate. History is FULL of violent streetfighting which took the culture, the nation-state in question, right into tyranny. Or worse tyranny.

There have been a FEW secession movements organized around law and high principles. The Indian independence movement was one, although that doesn't fully count - the British were as tired of Indian colonization as the Indians were. And there was our own.

Moral: PLANNED, MEASURED, RESTRAINED resistance and counterattack, is a winning recipe. Rioting like animals, gets the rioters shot like dogs.

No.

But that's not progress, either.

IMO, when you're going hell-bent over a cliff, just slamming on the brakes is a form of progress.
