Gun Control Agenda Is Launching White Paranoid Extremists to Prepare for Armed Revolution
http://www.alternet.org/news-amp-politics/gun-control-agenda-launching-white-paranoid-extremists-prepare-armed-revolutionThe battle over gun control has exposed a truth the mainstream media is apparently too shy to mention: A bunch of far-right, white, mostly Southern, paranoid extremists are preparing for armed revolution and apocalypse. They speak treason: literally.
They are preparing to "defend" America from America with arsenals of weapons and stockpiles of ammunition. Their "enemy" is everyone in America not like them.
They think the world is ending and/or that the government is out to get them. That doesn’t mean it will happen. But expect violence and assassinations. Their ideology is made up of equal parts racism, evangelical Christian fascination with the “end times,” hatred of President Obama, resentment of the “Old “South” variety and a Fox News/Glenn Beck/Rush Limbaugh version of world history.
As the New Yorker noted:
“Every demographic and political trend that helped to reëlect Barack Obama runs counter to the [South’s] self-definition:…The Solid South speaks less and less for America and more and more for itself alone… Solidity has always been the South’s strength, and its weakness. The same Southern lock that once held the Democratic Party now divides the Republican Party from the socially liberal, fiscally moderate tendencies of the rest of America… The South’s vices—‘violence, intolerance, aversion and suspicion toward new ideas’—grow particularly acute during periods when it is marginalized and left behind. An estrangement between the South and the rest of the country would bring out the worst in both—dangerous insularity in the first, smug self-deception in the second.”

we do not know what is really driving their paranoia when they talk about these imaginary criminals. The criminals want get background checks for guns. Think about the old antebellum South and slave rebellions. There was paranoia then too. They got to have enough fire power. They fire power to secede too. They need stealth fighters and nukes. We have our extremists too. Some think these people are normal but I'll be more worried about the mental conditions. Think about it. Timothy McVeigh was more likely to commit mass murder but some thought he was normal. His thinking was more like Wayne La pierre because he saw the U.S. government as the enemy. And if you are considered a Communist Leftie by the Right wing nuts why should you trust them? If anyone is dangerous its the Republican right wing.The same nuts they want to steal elections and see fraud in every state they lose.
