San Fran Board of Supervisors declare that the NRA is a terrorist organization

[kerplode]

I can't see how anyone can think this is funny. You are being marginalized, scapegoated. They are prepping the battle space, the public square, moving the Overton Window, with the ultimate purpose of your elimination. That's what this and other efforts like it are. Period. If you don't understand and see this for what it truly is, you're wrong.

This is the damn truth.

[TAZ]

Certainly, it's pure Alinsky. You identify your enemy, isolate them, marginalize them, then destroy them.

So Find, Fix and Fu@@ in the political game??

Wonder what their resolution means from a legal standpoint. I’m guessing pointless virtue signaling. Maybe some conservative area should designate California as terror sponsor.

Agree, but with this proclamation coming from the least credible city in the US and being so extreme, I think there's opportunity to use it to ridicule the left.

How can you NOT see how funny this really is? Sobering, maddening, infuriating, yeah, all of them, but funny, too. You know statistics, right? The ol' bell curve? How many standard deviations is San Fan removed from the mean? It is so in character for them, but I will be more surprised and really nervous if 99% of other cities and municipalities did this.

They are less removed than you think. I can see many major cities across the U.S. doing exactly the same- Denver, LA, Phoenix, Albq., Seattle, Madison, Austin- yes, Austin, Tx., Chicago, Philly, Baltimore etc....Especially if they think that designation could lead to law suits to destroy the NRA by stripping it's assets- to pay for their "crimes", disclosure of it's membership list- all potential Red Flag Terrorists.... (Which of course, would be conveniently, accidentally, posted to the Internet) etc...There is nothing funny about it. These people are playing for keeps and our side is doing the 5 knuckle shuffle....

We have SIX Republicans from our Congressional delegation retiring this year here in Texas- and the election is still a year away..... Why do you think that is? How many GOP members retired last election cycle- essentially handing the House to the Dems? You think this is any different? There is almost NO ONE standing in their way..... This is going to get worse and worse. We lose Texas and you will never see another Republican in the White House, ever. It's not funny at all.

Speaking of lawsuits, does a City have immunity from libel?

Esq does have a point. Say we get Beta or Carmelo or Creepy Joe in the whitehouse. I don’t think it is unreasonable to believe that they would do this on a national level and then suddenly there are 5 million members who are “domestic terrorists”.

Can we just declare the San Fran Board of Supervisors to be a subversive, communist, domestic enemy of the US? I mean since we are just applying labels arbitrarily.

[Firefly]

Feel good actions like this make it hard for me to take anyone seriously.

So no. Declaring the communists would be sinking to that level. Just like people bandying the 25th Amendment for Trump.

Trump is an asshole and hasn’t impressed me in a couple years now....but he’s not crazy.

People forget he was and probably still is a NYC Business Democrat. He simply scares people because he knows all the dirty laundry.

It’s this clickbait conclusion jumping that is the societal equivalent of crying wolf.
If everything is a huge crisis then nothing is.

Plus as was mentioned it gets people off the subject of the real problems like Biblical homelessness (like literally six figure income and homeless), HIV at Africanized levels, poop in the streets, drug paraphernalia littering about, and managerial waste on a criminal level.

But nobody is talking about that. Just saying the NRA is a terrorist organization like like they got guys cutting off people’s heads in Northern Virginia or something.

Why do you say arbitrarily? That sounds like a factual description of that Board, from the late 60's through today. (I'm not even being sarcastic, but serious.)

None of us want to be running around like Chicken Little, but it's time to start recognizing how unhinged and genuinely, sincerely crazy some of the people on the far-left are, along with some not-crazy sociopaths that hope to ride the useful idiots to violent conquest.

Most of all the mainstream "Democrats" need to recognize this. I do not believe 50% of the country are crazy and shockingly stupid. I do believe that 40% or more are naive and going along with a few % that are crazy and/or sociopathic in the extreme.
