Trump supporter fears 'civil war' if Clinton wins

[Rocknrule]

Source: The Hill

A supporter of Donald Trump on Tuesday predicted "civil war" if Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton is elected.

A woman attending a rally with the GOP nominee's running mate urged Indiana Gov. Mike Pence to prevent Clinton from becoming president.

"If Hillary Clinton wins the election ... and she's on that Second Amendment, taking your guns away, there is going to be a civil war in this state" or elsewhere in the country, the woman who identified herself as Brenda predicted, to some applause in Albuquerque, N.M.


"But, if President Trump would win," the woman continued, to hollers from the crowd, "there's also going to be a war, because Obama is going to pull that martial law on the United States."

2. Shoulda cut them loose in 1865 (after ensuring safe passage for freed slaves of course)

[GulfCoast66]

28. This takes the cake.

Found a way to slam the south and suggest the nation would be better off without them but not abandon the poor slaves.

Guess what? The north absolutely did not want blacks living there. Passed laws to prevent it.

Racism is America's sin, not just we southerners. It just happens that for most of American history the black Americans lived in the South. But when you see all the magnificent antibellum buildings in the north almost all of them were built with labor stolen from enslaved blacks. Because much of the wealth in the north was based on slavery in the south.

So get off your high horse. Many of us are working to win Democratic majorities down here.

[ncgrits]

34. Thank you! nt

[Kashkakat v.2.0]

58. Well hey Im not the first person to have ever thought or said that - the American civil war & how it

was "resolved" contained the seeds of current day political conflicts. . wish I could find the article about this - traces origins of red state/blue state politics back to their origins in various European countries/cultures of 1700s/1800s - where people came from and where they dispersed to before and after civil war is very illuminating. Obviously the lines are drawn now in some very different places than in 1865 and obviously "cutting them loose" is not an option now nor was it really back then either. Just an idle musing borne out of frustration and wishing I could wave a magic wand and have these people just frikkin GO AWAY.

Still... I see how my way of expressing that was not very good at all and could be offensive to southerners - sorry, not intended.

[GulfCoast66]

64. No problem.

And the history of the regions of the country is very interesting.

Some say that the foundation of the civil war was laid by having religious puritans founding New England and pretty much greed treasure hunters settling Virginia. And that insult is directed at my family as we settled in Virginia in the 1660's.

But there was actually an active and robust antislave movement in the South until the 1830's when advocating abolition was made illegal and socially unacceptable.

Hopefully I will live to see the day when the south returns to the Democratic Party. But the Democratic party of LBJ not Andrew Jackson!

Have a nice day.

[TrishaJ]

74. Here, here!

South bashing is soooooo lame.

[sarisataka]

33. Cut who loose?

Wasn't this in New Mexico? Which did not become a state until 1912?

[narnian60]

53. Well said.

[getagrip_already]

71. no civil war, after all...

we over threw texas and took the state over without ever firing a shot. thats how good we are.

be afraid. be very afraid. bwa hahahahahh

[Iliyah]

4. A civil war within their own nasty group

[onehandle]

5. See: 2008, re: Obama. nt

[librarylu]

6. Lock her up.

Brenda, that is.

[madaboutharry]

7. Ignorant people make me sad.

[angrychair]

24. You must stay sad

Because we have a whole lot of ignorance in our country (see: any trump event).

[madaboutharry]

25. True, I am often sad.

[narnian60]

55. Me, too.

[sarae]

52. Truer words were never spoken.

What a depressing election. Someone turned on the kitchen lights and all the cockroaches came out.

[Ghost Dog]

60. There are a hell of a lot of them, when they all come out

together.

I had that problem once in a basement flat in Chelsea, London. They came from the bakery next door.

I used paraffin kerosene. Set fire to the whole tribe. Still feel a bit guilty about that...

[sarae]

61. Can you do the same with our election?

[Ghost Dog]

62. Well... Since I don't have a vote...

[liberal N proud]

8. Only if Trump incites one

I am more worried about the wars that Trump would start if he was ever President.

[DBoon]

9. an attempt to overturn an election by force is a coup d'etat

Something that happens in countries we consider less developed and without solid democratic institutions

[jpak]

10. Delusional nut jobs - they WANT to kill their fellow citizens - and will make up any excuse to do so

yup

[Person 2713]

59. +1

[bucolic_frolic]

11. Civil war or revolutions

are only possible when the constabulary and armed forces join the rebellion

We have professionals on both those levels. Only a few would forsake
their duties for a hee-haw

[Indpndnt]

12. November 8th is going to be a lot of fun.

All those little pinheads, like Brenda's, are going to pop.

[63splitwindow]

13. ...

[lordsummerisle]

22. lol! n/t

[Hoyt]

14. White Wingers are oiling up their gunz.

[oswaldactedalone]

15. That is just sad.

Makes you weep for your country.

[Jim Dandy]

16. Hunh.

A bunch of fat old guys versus the United States military. Anyone want to bet who'd win?

[jpak]

19. The Port-a-Potties

21. Trump De Dumps

[SammyWinstonJack]

47. HA!

[hibbing]

17. Wait....I thought President Obama already eliminated the 2nd Amendment n/t

[0rganism]

18. how nice of them to resort to extortion

"My way or the nation burns" - thanks guys.

[Yallow]

23. Someone Should Do An Ancestry.com On Her

And see which family members slept with each other.

[tazkcmo]

51. That family tree

Would look like a telephone pole.

[Skittles]

26. paranoid delusions

WTF

[Stonepounder]

27. It scares me.

Trump WANTS violence. He WANTS disruption. He WANTS his supporters out there in the streets trying to delegitimize the election, and with it the government of the US after he gets soundly thrashed at the polls. And at the rate he is going he is going to get violence - sometime between now and Nov 9.

[allan01]

29. that is what some said about obama too

jumpain jehosiphat

[lordsummerisle]

30. I'm always amazed

at the mileage they continually get out of "they're going to repeal the Second Amendment and take our guns!" crap...

[PSPS]

31. Stupid click bait from The Hill which shouldn't be in LBN

The context of the statement included "If Hillary Clinton wins the election ... and she's on that Second Amendment, taking your guns away, there is going to be a civil war in this state." This is the same rhetoric you hear every four years from the goobers. Too bad they're not smart enough to figure out that, even after decades of this silly 'take away your guns' promise made by their candidate, we're all still waiting for it to happen.

[SammyWinstonJack]

48. And when it did happen, it was their candidate doing the gin grabbing...

GWB post Katrina.....

[Cryptoad]

32. Geee,,, i wonder where they ever got that idea?

[jtuck004]

35. I.e., they feel fully justified in starting what they are warning us about.

Brings this to mind...

"When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time."

36. Brenda and a 72-year-old who's bummed that his SS hasn't gone up in 3 years

Slow news day.

[apnu]

37. This shit again?

Weren't we supposed to see a civil war after Obama was elected?

[Shankapotomus]

66. Actually

The United States was supposed to " target="_blank">cease to exist as we know it, according to Alan Keyes.

[Ford_Prefect]

38. They said the same thing when a Black man was going to be elected in 2008 and re-elected in 2012.

The only difference was the way the 2nd amendment was referenced this time.

The whole race-war/revolution meme is old news in RW & White racist fantasy circles and has been re-stated over at least the last 60 years nearly every time a Democrat seemed likely to win. It is fear-driven in the same way false claims of wide-spread rape by freed Black men were spread during the post civil war period.

They said the same thing about hippies and other outsiders when they were the selected "dangerous mob".

When the 1st Gulf war loomed and there were marches in protest against starting it the news media received and on occasion repeated rumors that the the marchers were going to riot.

Winger projection of their own fear and anger: "Paranoia Strikes Deep, Into your lives it will creep...

[smirkymonkey]

39. I'm sorry, but what an effing idiot.

"she's on that Second Amendment", "[He's] going to pull that martial law". They're comin' fer our gunz!!!

[EricMaundry]

40. Go ahead Trumpies

Make our day.

[Zambero]

41. Civil war within the GOP

They had best settle the score between themselves before deciding to take on the rest of the country.

[Binkie The Clown]

42. Wait, what? I thought it was Obama who was going to take away all our guns. n/t

[Third Doctor]

43. Wow. A lot of them love talking about war and violence.

I do think they are dangerous due to their love of guns and many refuse to accept logic and common sense. If Trump loses (hopefully) they will not understand the electoral process and will believe it was rigged. This is what Trump is saying right now and these morons can't think for themselves. The cops are going to have a busy week.

[bluestateguy]

44. She is allowed to vote

I have a problem with that.

[truthisfreedom]

45. You can't blame this entirely on half of the population having an IQ less than 100.

Some people are simply taught complete and utter bullshit in this country.

[SammyWinstonJack]

46. Ugh!

[ananda]

49. I predict a Civil War in a Teapot.

.. or maybe a Septic Tank.

[Javaman]

50. yeah, just like the bundy crowd.

and look how well that worked out for them. LOL

[Rocknrule]

67. Breaking rocks in the hot sun

They fought the law and the law won

[Javaman]

73. ...

[Nitram]

54. Trump supporters are all hat and no cattle.

[downeastdaniel]

56. Hey Brenda, Good News! Hillary promised not to take your precious guns...so relax.

[muntrv]

63. It'll be Trump supporters firing the first shot.

[greymattermom]

65. Decriminalize possession of marijuana in more states

and there will be plenty of places in prison for these folks.

[LongTomH]

68. "The media is focusing on semantics"

"See - see -man -ticks! Omigerd, Bubba!!!! He's he's usin' them big words!!!!"



Oh, and if the old guy is worried that his Social Security isn't going up, why is he voting for a party that want's to cut it, at the least.

[Mc Mike]

69. Try it, gop ers. Double dare you to. Quadruple dare you to.

[FigTree]

72. There won't be nothing.

Because they will return to the anonymity of their daily misery, obedience and humiliations, taking it out on their selves, wives, children, dogs or deers, just as they did before. It is in fact extremely depressing to witness the nation's third and fourth world gesticulating in pain, grimacing what's left of their pride and trying to make logical sense of their lives with the tiny amount of knowledge they were able to garner along the way.

[MrScorpio]

75. A bunch of fat, drunken slobs who run around, going "pew-pew," does not a civil war, make.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

76. Trump supporter *wants* 'civil war' if Clinton wins...

Changed that for ya.

[mahina]

77. Fear, the breakfast of bedwetters.

Apology to bedwetters.

But is fear really all they've got?

I fully expect a steady diet of Ailsian Nixon-era 'black people are scary' from now till Election Day from these wankers.

[olddad56]

78. Trump supporters fear, period.

Trump is a fear monger and a hate monger,

he preys on uneducated people who believe his lies. His whole Hitler act is about trying to get people so afraid of his opponent and get people to hate his opponent so much that they will vote for him.

If he were a little more polished and a little less brash, it might would, but Trump is basically a fuck-up. He has fucked up every business that he has gotten his hands on. This business of pretending to want to be the president, he has already fucked that up to. All he can do at this point is point his little tiny finger at others, blame others, and call other people names.

This piece of human shit has done himself in.
