INSURRECTION TIMELINE. MUST READ!

[goodboy]

On June 26, 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court embraced the National Rifle Association's contention that the Second Amendment provides individuals with the right to take violent action against our government should it become "tyrannical." The following timeline catalogues incidents of insurrectionist violence (or the promotion of such violence) that have occurred since that decision was issued...

July 27, 2008—Jim Adkisson shoots and kills two people at a progressive church in Knoxville, Tennessee, wounding two. Adkisson calls it “a symbolic killing” because he really “wanted to kill…every Democrat in the Senate & House, the 100 people in Bernard Goldberg's book,” but was unable to gain access to them.


March 21-22, 2009—Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-MN) states that she wants residents of her state to be “armed and dangerous on this issue of the energy tax because we need to fight back. Thomas Jefferson told us ‘having a revolution every now and then is a good thing,’ and the people—we the people—are going to have to fight back hard if we’re not going to lose our country.”

April 4, 2009—Neo-Nazi Richard Poplawski shoots and kills three police officers responding to a 911 call to his home in Pittsburgh. His friend Edward Perkovic tells reporters that Poplawski feared “the Obama gun ban that’s on its way” and “didn’t like our rights being infringed upon.” Perkovic also commented that Poplawski carried out the shooting because “if anyone tried to take his firearms, he was gonna’ stand by what his forefathers told him to do.”

This is an excellent resource, and reminded me of so many incidents I had forgotten about (I just get numb after awhile)

Thanks again, and I plead with people to go to that site for a very good recap of what we have been talking about in the past day.

3. This is an excellent and educational site. Arranged for easy learning. This is the way I save time.

This is where I go to refresh my memory about what Bachmann or Beck, etc. said.

Sourced,also. Excellent. Thank you.

5. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) want people to be "armed and dangerous"

There are soooo many to try to recount on the Republican side.
The media trying like hell to claim it's one crazy guy and this should not be politicized.

THEY give tons of airtime to the inciters of violence. The MEDIA refuses to even mention our reasonable rallies of many thousands - but when 2 paid-for busloads of gun toting teabaggers get together... it gets aired on a tape loop 24x7.

7. So are the Supremes saying in effect that those extremely ideologically-driven

and deranged can individually decide if the government has become "tyrannical" and act out on their rage thereby effectively sanctioning the actions of the Arizona shooter insofar as the killing of the Federal District Judge and the shooting of the Congresswoman are concerned? :shrug: Now ain't that ruling, as all Scalia-led majority decisions, especially special?

11. Did the Heller decision actually say that?

Or is that someone's opinion of what the Heller decision mught make possible? I've belonged to the NRA for 20 years and never once did I hear them advocate violent action against the government.

Can you substantiate the first sentence of your post? If you can't, your post is disingenuous, at best.
