Is the Left serious with these calls to violence??

Is the Left in general serious about the various calls to violence that they have made?

Or is it just a bunch of rabid but empty venting?

Note: The current admin. does not seem to support this, but certainly takes no action against it either.

Where conservatives can envision resistance to only a government that has destroyed the Constitution, progressives now advocate armed rebellion against a government that won't destroy the Constitution.

Global leftist protest is beginning to coalesce around a single theme of a coming civil war. Following the results of the midterm elections, the leftist blogosphere in America is buzzing with rant after rant about the need for armed conflict to stop "casino capitalists" and wrest control of the government from "retrograde politicians." "The Coming Insurrection," published in August of 2009 as the blueprint for revolution in Western Europe (rising as high as seventy-first on Amazon.com in the U.S.), declares itself to be "a strategic prescription for an emergent war-machine to "spread anarchy and live communism."

Podesta: Obama Can Use ‘Armed Forces’ to Push Progressive Agenda

The liberal Center for American Progress doesn’t believe significant GOP gains in the House and Senate should stop the president from implementing more of his polices. The group released a report Tuesday suggesting ways Obama can bypass Congress to accomplish a progressive agenda, and it cites the president’s power as commander-in-chief to make its point.

“I think most of the conversation since the election has been about how President Obama adjusts to the new situation on Capitol Hill,” Center for American Progress head and former Bill Clinton Chief of Staff John Podesta told the Daily Caller. “While that’s an important conversation, it simply ignores the president’s ability to use all levels of his power and authority to move the country forward.”

How does one “move the country forward”? In the center’s report, Podesta explains that Obama can use executive orders, rulemaking, and even the armed forces “to accomplish important change” and that such means “should not be underestimated.”

My thoughts exactly. They'll stop tossing bricks when we start putting rounds in them. Good luck with your unarmed revolution.

Don't be so foolish. There are lots of lefty radicals who own guns.

We have people on this site who have a positive opinion of communism in one form or another.

I watched it happen in RSA & Zim.

When I was in RSA we had a maid that was standing out in front of the house staring at. My employer's wife went out side to ask her what she was doing. She said that the ANC had come by and told her if she joined in the struggle after the revolution she would be given her employers house. She was deciding on the changes she would make to it one day

This was a common ANC tactic and it worked. The maid was fired

But the leaders in both countries are still "redistributing the wealth" and their economies are going down the shitter parallel to the redistribution. It can happen

I know a female about to get her butter bar, with a TS and in the MI that is as liberal as they come.

She thinks violence against America is just because America has done so many "messed up things" to other people.

Thats's no bullshit either. Mind you, she will be an officer very soon, probably in Afghanistan with a platoon of Iowa farm boys that look to her for leadership.

The liberal insurrection wont just be on the street. Marxist sympathizers are in every branch of the military and the government, so we wont just be facing Castro district muscle queens with KY grenades.
