Civil War?

Top Teamsters goon James R. Hoffa is threatening to bring “civil war” to Michigan in order to roll back the state’s new right to work law.

After Gov. Rick Snyder (R) signed legislation aimed at breaking the labor movement’s death grip on Michigan’s near-comatose economy, Hoffa took to CNN Tuesday to declare, “This is just the first round of a battle that’s going to divide this state.” He added, “We’re going to have a civil war in this state.”

Hoffa also flippantly compared the enactment of the legislation to the attack on Pearl Harbor 71 years ago in which more than 3,000 Americans died.

While the Michigan House of Representatives debated the worker freedom bill on Tuesday, state lawmaker Douglas Geiss (D) took to the floor.

“There will be blood,” he said. “I really wish we had not gone here … I do not see solace, I do not see peace.”

In fact blood has already been spilled. While he was trying to interview right to work opponents outside the legislature in Lansing two days ago, conservative comedian-activist Steven Crowder was beaten up by union members. Apparently the perpetrators were upset that Crowder was asking questions and trying to prevent them from demolishing a temporary shelter that the good government group Americans for Prosperity had erected at the site. Crowder suffered a chipped tooth in the attack.

The new Michigan law strikes a powerful blow for freedom of association in the Wolverine State. Right to work laws weaken unions’ monopolistic control of local labor markets and protect workers’ ability to control their own destinies, free from pressure applied by union bosses. Such legislation allows employees to work without being forced to pay union dues which are often funneled to Democratic candidates and various radical causes. Michigan is now the 24th state to enact right to work legislation. Read more: http://frontpagemag.com/2012/matthew-vadum/unions-prepare-for-civil...

I'm 72 and not afraid to die to preserve freedom for my grandkids & great grandkids and their future kids & grandkids. Our Dutch ancestors landed in north America almost 400 years ago and some were involver in the wars with Indians, The French & the 1st Revolution and the Civil war. They helped preserve freedom for our parents generation and our generation. Now its up to us to unite to preserve it for our future generations and reignite patriotism in the current generation to restore our Constitution  as our forefathers had done and as our founders had intended. Its far to late to turn our country around at the polls, it will take more drastic action. I know a lot don't like hearing that but, its todays reality!  GOD HELP US?

I would hope that in the event of Civil war that the Military side with the people and uphold their oaths to protect and defent the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic! (in both cases that includes this administration, congress and any type of terrorists that stands against our constitution)

Today at work I was told to move my car to the back parking lot because a "liberal" customer was offended by my pro Christian, anti-obama bumper stickers (yes, I'm aware that I didn't capalitize his name).  I'm a Christian, 20 year military veteran, a member here and a member of the NRA. I didn't move it one inch and was just waiting to be told again, but they didn't!  What is becoming of our country?  An  admin. that is not concerned with a free America but is only focused with promoting their crazy adgenda.  Unions are crooked and out for themsevles...gee, just like the liberal left wing democrats...go figure???

"Read more: http://frontpagemag.com/2012/matthew-"...  -excuse me folks... I really don't mean to appear pontifical, dictatorial or pompous... but, really, I don't need to 'read' another thing... I am over-read by half... -I am all done with 'reading', as far as I am concerned, I have read enough... -enough to Know where, at least, I stand. 

I'm 71 yrs old... born prior to WWII (Nov.)... obviously I lived through the 'war yrs'.... in the end, trying to grasp what just happened, it took another 10 or 20 yrs to do even begin any 'research'... lol, Wow, What kind of world do I really live in... -this stuff is just crazy. Fortunately, I have since believed in Reincarnation, -that is to say that I already possessed an education that surpasses what is before me.

The bottom-line 'education' that I own is that: Loving Life (your own life & respecting All life) is where it's at (period... go figure).

We the People are trying to be made to feel as if we are out of touch, stupid, vile, etc---

We the People believe in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights--it is time for organized peaceful marches--by the hundreds of thousands to let the elite know that the have had enough of a run--we are a Constitutional government--not Muslim under Sharia Law--and we definitely should not be like Germany before WW2--populace unarmed and the new witch hunt for Christians instead of the Jews- at least at this time.  Christians are listed aas the new terrorists-but it is the Muslims who are doing the bombing--wake up MSM and America

Lord, please help us

Comment by Karol Hancock on May 13, 2013 at 10:54am

We have reached the point in America that we must be making serious commitments as to who, what, how and when We The People will take a stand.  There is no question that the current government is working hourly to change us into a Muslim controlled country.  We Christian/Jewish Patriots are already on the Extremist Enemy list, which does not mean detention, they must get rid of us first and they know it.  Anyone that does not realize this is living in a dream world.  If this tyranny is allowed to take control for even a day, we will be hard pressed to turn it back.  Florida is already asking their citizens to turn in neighbors that say anything against the government, how long do you think it will take for that to spread from state to state?  Right now they are not offering a reward for turning in your neighbors, but they will soon.  Remember, George Soros is  Jew, he spent the best part of Hitler's Holocaust turning in friends, family and neighbors, which benefited him greatly.  Do not think that no one will take advantage of this offer, there will be many.  We know for a fact, liberals will certainly take advantage of it.  Look at Feinstein in the top of this article, she is scared to death of us, she knows what Americans are capable of and we will not just lay down for them.  If Obama signs the UN treaty, it will be just one more treasonous act from him, but they will try to move quickly on this.  Everyone should be trying to stock personal supplies for their families and prepare for all utilities to be cut off.  If for some reason, anyone should decide they will not stand with the Patriots, please, do not hinder them, remain silent and stay out of the way.

Mike, just remember that blue helmuts make really good targets at a thousand yards! "Every rock, every bldg, every tree, and every bush...!"

Neal Bortz is an idiot! The concept of not having popular elections is utter bullcrap. There is a reason for the Electoral College. It was supposed to be the last line of defense in case the people elected the wrong man via popular vote. The Founding Fathers never envisioned that this many traitors would be able to hold elected office, and positions of prominence in American society without the people having already risen up and taken care of business before it got to this point! But, in thier wisdom, they also provided for such an eventuiality via the 2nd Amendment. When you read the extraneous writings of the Founding Fathers, it becomes very clear what the intent of the 2nd Amendment entailed; and how they envisioned that Constitutional freedom to be used! Then very words are embodied in the Declaration of Independence. "When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary....." Those words were not only written for their cause, but for ANY subsequent similar cause.

They knew first hand how iron-fisted the chains of tyranny can be, and just how hard it is to cause them to loose their hold on a people once they have become shackled! They knew that no tyrant, nor those who profit from their support of such a tyranny, would ever release such a dictatorial hold, unless forced to do so; and that the jack-boots of tyranny will never voluntarily lift their grip on the throat of Lady Liberty, unless given no choice in the matter! They also realized that choice would be made only after the dictatorship came to the realization that "WE THE PEOPLE...." were prepared to apply the use of absolute force in order to remove their threat to personal liberty. They also knew that such force could not be applied via the ballot box, but rather it would take the threat of, or the use of, lethal force from the barrel of a musket, and the blade of a sword in order to accomplish the task!

Talk is great. Protests are great. Writing letters is great. Sending e-mails is great. Making phone calls is great. Posting on the internet is great. But, NOTHING WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED IF THE POWERS THAT BE DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THE PEOPLE ARE SERIOUS. Not only serious, but prepared to do something about it! Intent has no meaning without resolve and action behind it!

Take this advice for what it is worth. The time to begin is now.

The Constitution has been spun so out of control that the phrase "We The People" has been interpreted by "legal professionals" to mean THEM, and NOT the US Citizens.  That is where the fight is.  Think about it.  You (or I) are not licensed to stand before a judge and speak.  In fact, most judges will "turn you off" the moment to say a single word.  That is the same attitude of politicians.  Unless you are "one of them" they have no time for you - until election day.  But, as Neal Bortz stated, "The President of the United States, according to the US Constitution, is not suppose to be elected by "the people", but by the State Representatives.  IF he is right, that means that the Popular Vote AND Electoral College is UNCONSTITUTIONAL, and we practice voting as a TRADITION rather than by what the US Constitution states.

 

BTW...  Does anyone else read the "Obamacare" mandate that requires US Citizens to turn in ALL medical information as part of assembling "The Mark - 666"?

Comment by Chester Wade on May 10, 2013 at 3:18pm

Civil War? All we need to do is have Conservatives on Capitol Hill have some old fashioned 1776 guts! "We The People" will take care of the rest.

Any conflict begun by this criminal regime will include the ten's of thousands of UN troops already here in the US, in addition to which are the Chinese troops here covertly.  Pray it does not come to that, though it is hard to envision how we can avoid it.

Comment by AZRanger on May 8, 2013 at 2:54pm

Well, the time is coming soon folks! It appears that the Communist Administration running the federal government is willing to run their agenda right to the brink of CIVIL WAR!

Buckle up.  This is the most critical period for our gun rights you and I have seen in decades.

The fight over President Obama’s gun control agenda in Congress is reaching a fevered pitch.

And now that the U.N. has finalized its “Small Arms Treaty,” there’s an INTERNATIONAL anti-gun scheme waiting in the wings, as well!

And on June 3, the Treaty will be sent to President Obama’s desk for his signature ratification . . .

. . . and perhaps very soon after it will be on to the U.S. Senate for final passage where Harry Reid may try and ram it through with little or no debate or hearings.

 

If the President signs that treaty, he will have committed treason against the Constitution of the United States, and subordinated the Constitutionally–guaranteed 2nd Amendment rights of the citizenry to the dictates of a foreign government, in the form of the United Nations!

This cannot be allowed to stand, and there are millions of citizens prepared to take up arms against such an action! This is not the will of the majority of Americans, and will be provoke a response from Patriots all across the country. I believe that many of the various state governments across the country will immediately take the stand that that treaty is illegal and Un-Constitutional. We may see even more states pas legislation stating that such edicts will not be tolerated or allowed to be enforced within the borders of their states!

This legislation is indicative of those acts passed by the Quisling government of German-run Norway during WWII. That government was quickly deemed non-legitimate by the people of Norway, and since they had been virtually disarmed by the Germans, they were unable to do much about it. That situation does not yet exist in the US, and if this treason is pursued by the Obama Communists, there will be Civil War in this country!

I believe that Obama and his other Communist minions are determined to take the US down that road, regardless of the consequences. I further believe that since they believe that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, they see this as an opportunity to crush any dissent and challenge to Obama’s Communist reign. And, just a determined as the usurpers of freedom are to take them away, the Patriot community in this country stands ready to defend our nation’s individual liberties with, “…Our Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor!” We shall not go quietly into the night. We shall never surrender! We shall never waver! We shall overcome!

And what will be the sign f the beast--electronic devise necessary to work

America--we are in trouble--write, fax, telephone,--anything you can do to stop this ID for right to work--it is hidden on the amnesty act--people we are so often complacent- we vote for a person every 2-4 or 6 years--think our job is done--it isn't--we must remain on guard--lest a totalitarian govn take over (like what we now have at WH)----tink not--look at executive orders)

Comment by Dave Janes on May 2, 2013 at 7:49pm

Boston was practice for taking us out when the dollar collapses and there is social unrest they will use that as an excuse to take us out. Then preppers. Then Christians.

Think its time to get ready? I don't want to have to fight an insurmountable force for one man alone. That is the problem. I haven't been on here for a while because of fighting Gun confiscation and amnesty. Part of the newest immigration bill is a national ID Card that you have to get to work but it's a photo ID based on social security. Now comes the scarry part it will have a biometric device they mention fingerprints or the eye print or the veins on the back of your hand. But the card will contain a biometric device. Does anyone know what that is if it traces you at all times I am not getting one because I am a Christian and this sounds too close to a "mark of the beast" to me. For George I am also an oath keeper. I think the real armed forces will not attack us that is why he has them so far away. Homeland Security is a different matter. I think they will in a heartbeat. Somehow CISPA got snuck through and it has so many yea's that some must be snakes in our grass. Damn politics I hate it and it seems that is all I do!

Comment by george gilbert on May 2, 2013 at 4:34am

I took an Oath at the age of 18, when I Enlisted. I STILL hold that Oath. I WILL Defend Myself, AND My Country, with every ounce I have left in me. No matter WHO that Enemy may be. When and If this Civil Resistance starts, I will join every one of you. Let the game begin

My question, why aren't we?

Comment by Patricia Campbell on April 25, 2013 at 6:09am

I am a Christian and a patriot. I will defend my country and do not trust the current administration one bit! They lie and when they are done they lie some more. Im glad hillarys lies finally came to light about Bengazi. I will not forget Bengazi, the fast and furious, the gov.s attempt to take away our Constitutional rights, the shady way things are being done in d.c. or all the guns, ammo, coffins and fema camps being set up secretly. I have never owned a gun in my life until last year. Not because i am against them I just didnt feel the need. Now I dont think pepper spray is enough. I am saddened by the down turn our country has taken and I pray daily for our beloved America. I will never accept communism or socialism or give up my freedoms given to me by God, my forefathers,men and women in uniform and the Constitution. I love America and hate  to see what she is becoming under this regime. They make terroist the good guys and Christians and Jews have a target on their backs. Why is that? One thing is sure God will take care of His people. I will be ready to help all I can when our gov actively turns against us with food, blankets anything I can do. I know I must forgive but I do not have to cower in a corner. I will not! The people that voted for obama have a very sinister agenda. Some are clueless others want a handout and still others want to destroy our beloved country from within. I pray that God will give obama wisdom, compassion and humility but if his heart is hard he will not change. May God bless America and her patriots, Christians and Jews since we are the targets. Sic Sec Tyrannis

Comment by David Kiser on April 12, 2013 at 8:58pm
