How Much Blood Would Leftists Be Willing To Shed To Disarm Patriotic Americans?

Guest Post by Kurt Schlichter

How Much Blood Would Leftists Be Willing To Shed To Disarm Patriotic Americans?

My question for Congressjerk Eric Swalwell is pretty simple: “How many Americans would you murder to achieve your goal of disarming us?”

It’s a fair question.

Swalwell is the MSNBC stalwart who recently wrote an op-ed advocating that the government confiscate the guns that make people like him wet themselves and imprison those of us who decline to surrender them. Millions of Americans own these basic tools of freedom, which the ignorant call “assault weapons,” and these loyal citizens keep and bear them to protect themselves, their families, their communities and their Constitution. But Rep. Swalwell would make these citizens felons, though these patriots are only a threat to criminals and aspiring tyrants.

Of course, he wants to make these patriots felons because they are a threat to criminals and aspiring tyrants. After all, that’s what leftist Democrats like him are.

Now, we know that some Americans would resist this kind of tyranny. People all over the world are resisting the elite’s commands. The Brits Brexited. The French are rioting because they don’t want to sacrifice their livelihoods on behalf of the global elites’ weird weather religion. And a decree that the Second Amendment is not a thing anymore would certainly provoke some serious pushback here.

That’s why it’s fair to ask Rep. Bloodlust how much blood he’s prepared to shed to achieve his goal of disarming Normal Americans

Rep. Swalwell, some people are going to fight rather than cave in, so what’s the number of bodies you would be willing to pile up to win? Let’s put aside the right or wrong of resistance; it’ll be a thing. It’ll happen. You’re from near San Francisco, so you don’t know any real Americans, but even though I am from that hellhole too, I’ve met a few Americans in my travels. They are an ornery people who don’t give in to the kind of bullying you advocate. So, you’re going to have to kill some people to do what you want, and I just want to know how many you’re prepared to off to achieve your goal.

After all, it’s not as if you Democrats don’t already have a history of killing people for having guns you disapprove of.

Remember Waco? The raid on David Koresh’s compound was because his weird band of misfits allegedly had scary, outlawed guns. That’s why Democrat Janet Reno initially decided to send in the troops. The government got four of our ATF agents killed, then slaughtered the resisters, including women and kids.

Was it worth it? Maybe these creepy cultists were violating the law, but was making sure they didn’t have guns that were scary worth shooting or burning alive about 80 people, including four cops?

Was it?

So, in light of his party’s track record, I want to know how many people Rep. Swalwell – who fancies himself a potent Democrat presidential contender – is prepared to see die so he can ensure Americans are disarmed in order to please the liberal Californians he represents. How many?

One?

One hundred?

One thousand?

One hundred thousand?

More?

How many corpses would Eric Swalwell and his blue state buddies accept because they don’t think some law-abiding citizen in Oklahoma should be allowed to choose what kind of weapon he has, because they think they should choose for him, and that that choice should be “None?”

On Twitter, which is a wonderful thing because it makes people truly reveal themselves, one gentleman pointed out the not-so-far-fetched notion that mass gun confiscation (let’s leave the problematic logistics for the gun-hating fascists aside) would spark a civil war. But Rep. Swalwell was not worried; he observed that a bunch of citizens with rifles could not stand up to a military armed with nuclear weapons.

Well, that’s a troubling notion.

Now, Congressman Strangelove properly took a lot of grief for suggesting nuking fellow Americans, but even if you accept his backtracking about how this was a joke – nothing’s funnier than suggesting the mass murder of fellow Americans! – he only put nukes off limits. What killing systems are still on the table? Infantry? Artillery? Bombers? Because his answer assumed that he would support prosecuting a war against those who failed to obey and submit to arrest.

So, Congressman, what means of destructions are still on the table to use against fellow Americans who refuse to allow you to strip them of their Second Amendment rights because you Bay Area liberals want to show those hicks in Jesusland who’s boss? Is shooting them okay? Shelling them? Bombing them, just not with nukes?

Having seen the fruits of oppression overseas, I find this troubling. Actually, that’s putting it lightly. I find it horrifying. I’ve written about it in my novels about how our country could be ripped apart by leftist oppression. My just-released book Wildfire paints a most unpretty picture, but my predictions keep coming true. Try as I might, nothing I write speculating about what they would do if given the chance seems to hold a candle to what people like Congressman Stalin tell us they are actually willing to do to crush us under their Gucci loafers.

Understand that the leftists with Swalwell’s mentality are not driven by notions of justice or reason, but by cold hatred for Normal Americans. We’ve been disobedient. We’ve been defiant. We’ve refused to surrender our means of defending our own sovereignty to our elite overlords, and that is intolerable.

After all, a man without a rifle is not a citizen. He’s a serf, subject to the whims and will of his overlords who you damn well know are never giving up the guns their minions keep and bear.

Look at England. They gave up their guns. Now, the police watch their Twitter feeds and arrest them if they say unapproved things. That’s not a bug to our liberal elite; that’s a feature. That’s the goal.

Wait, this is crazy talk! If we disarm and only a government controlled by the liberal elite has guns, our overlords will be totally cool. They’ll respect our right to say and do what we want. They’ll allow us to practice our religion as we please. You know, just like liberals respect the rights of normal people where they are in control, like on college campuses, or on social media, or in the municipalities that hassle Christian cake shops.

Get woke. They hate you, and your freedom to tell them to pound sand sticks in their collective collectivist craw. Ignore the leftist media and the Fredocon collaborators who demand you not believe your lying eyes or ears when they tell you what they intend to do to you if given the chance.

So, the question remains. Our liberal elite betters think we should be stripped of those scary bangsticks the Constitution protects, and we disagree. So, Rep. Swalwell, how many Americans are you willing to kill to fulfill your vision of a disarmed, defenseless, servile population of docile subjects?

One?

One hundred?

One thousand?

One hundred thousand?

More?

My third novel about America after it splits into two countries, one red and one blue, just dropped. Check out Wildfire and see what could happen if we fail to defend our freedom in the face of people who want to make us Venezuela del Norte.

At 53 i am the young’n amongst my friends. Those in their upper 60’s and above are sayin they got nothin to lose. Might as well go down swingin. If the system is gonna self destruct and not be able to take care of you in your golden years like was promised, there is no reason to suffer in silence. I doubt the gun grabbers have taken the old man with nothing to lose factor into consideration.

Anyone that bought into the fairytale that “the system would be able to take care of you in your golden years” is a moron. Yes, some will get taken care of, but the bill will be handed down to the young, which is an outrage. A society’s primary duty is to ensure future generations do not carry the burdens of the previous, and to ensure each successive generation leaves things better for those to come.

Those old folks are suffering because of their own gross stupidity, and they carry much responsibilty for the current situation. They generally allowed it to happen, and they passed on the responsibilty for their own well-being to the government. That is disgraceful.

When individuals give the responsibilty for their well-being to the government, they have made a catastrophic mistake. They become akin to livestock, waitng for the next bale of hay, ignorant of the day of slaughter to come.

‘Tis true.

The basic premise of being cared for in old age has always been that the young and healthy care for the elderly and infirm, only in previous generations- like since time began- the responsibility fell on the shoulders of family members, those with skin in the game, as they say. The political elites, collaborating with the wealthy gangsters who steer policy did everything they could to break apart traditional families in order to reduce resistance, eliminate the thrift and traditions that stood in the way of their consolidation of power and convince them that their best bet was to be cared for in their dotage by immigrant youths, either in isolated elder care housing, or through taxation of an alien population that appears to neither work, nor contribute to the tax base and by all appearances hates the people they are supposed to be responsible for.

Had they ever tried to sell this idea as stated they would have been laughed off the world stage, but as with everything they do it is nothing but smoke and mirrors, chicanery, and obfuscation.

We cared for the elders of my family in their own home until their passing and intend to do the same for their children (my parents generation) and in setting the example we firmly believe that our aged years will be the responsibility of our children and their children and they may use whatever we accumulated during our lifetimes for that purpose and the remainder when we pass, for their benefit.

The thought that it is better to raise up your children to send them out into a world far away from you so we can bring foreigners in from abroad to care for us in their stead is so far beyond absurd I don’t think it qualifies for discussion, yet here we are and that pattern is the standard.

Llpoh, HSF – I definitely agree with both of you. Corporately, we are responsible for the sorry shape we are in. In my case, I am taking all the gov. has ‘promised’ (SS, State pension, VA), but am prepared for when that mists away like the mirage it is. When my parents passed the ranch to me, the stipulations – with full involvement and agreement amongst the family – was that I make them debt-free, cover all expenses except personal med/fire insurance, they live in their home (the nice one!) which I now own until they die or desire to move, a certain amount of mhoola each month, and take care of Mom after Dad dies. Works for us.

True, there are more pissed off, out of work veterans than you can shake a stick at.

Hopeless 60-somethings don’t necessarily make good insurgents, but successful insurgencies have always depended on sniping and rusty old bolt action rifles to get the job done.

Going out in a blaze of close-quarters-combat is ineffective and suicidal.

I’m 57 and I belong to a private gun range. We have a number of cups and many ex-military members. From conversations with them, they *will* fight. The good news is that there are a number of young military guys there (30’s-40’s) that would not hesitate to fight. Maybe not all hope will be lost when the older guys like me pass away.

There are many who would have no upper limit as to how many they would slaughter. You see, only by taking the guns can they subjugate the entire population, which is their goal. Mao and Stalin are exhibits A and B – the slaughters they perpetrated had no numerical bounds, as it was done in order to subjugate every single person.

And so it has always been. Rulers care only about maintaining and extending their power. The death of millions of people are of no consequence to despots when it is deemed necessary to secure power.

Venezuela is another, current, example. The despots in charge there are happily starving their own people to death so as to secure and maintain their power.

It will end very poorly in the US if there is an attempt to seize the guns of the people. It has happened elsewhere, but never in a place where the right to carry arms is so ingrained. I suspect an attempt will eventually be made. We live in interesting times.

The “attempt” is already under way. What rock have you been hiding under to enable yourself to not notice? The “attempts” have been going just fine, and will continue to do so.
The only ones for whom this will “end poorly” are gun owners. As 22winmag points out: “Going out in a blaze of close-quarters-combat is ineffective and suicidal.” And yet that’s the best that can be hoped for when some small percentage is willing to die defending its rights, but no one is willing to risk anything to defend anyone else’s rights.

Another one willing to ignore the way goat humpers brought the Soviet Union to its knees and stalemated the US military for nearly twenty years and tore a swath through the middle east and north Africa with no jets, bombers, missiles, drones etc.
Fred Flyover will bring ten times as much to the fight along with resources for making SAM missiles, armed drones and more other stuff than the uninitiated can imagine, including lots of people who can operate and maintain aircraft and weapons systems they might “find.”

I do not “ignore the way goat humpers brought the Soviet Union to its knees and stalemated the US”

They did it by being unified, knowing who their enemy was, and actually fighting back effectively … not by waiting for a soviet tank division to show up at each individual hovel, only to have each hovel-dweller — one by one — attack the armor wielding a scimitar and shouting “Allahu Ak….”

The first step is acknowledging that you’re in a war when someone declares war upon you … not at some later time when it affects your household budget, or shows up in your living room as a trigger-happy SWAT team.

Their clan, tribe whatever is unified locally They don’t have a Bill of Rights but they definitely believe in the right to keep and bear arms and are always ready to deal with anybody interrupting their idea of normal.

The question really is how many would resist the confiscation of their firearms? All the gun grabbers really have to do is create the laws during times of relative prosperity and discover the majority of gun owners would rather keep the peace and give up their tools of freedom, in exchange for a promised “peace in our times.”
At some predetermined point when maybe 5-10% of the population of gun owners remains, fatalities may then commence. Of these, maybe 20% will actually know how to resist and remain alive, while the others will be drawn into kill zones and quickly liquidated.
So to answer the question, the number is about 3 to 8% of the current gun owning population.

If 3-8 percent of gun owners started shooting, the flow of goods and services slows to a trickle and the whole country comes to a screeching halt.

A problem we have is that red team vs. blue team also splits roughly along decent vs. indecent/perverse/criminal lines. Leftists despise normal marriage, but love abortion, gayness, polyamory, and other unnatural expressions of human pair bonding. They demand to be heard, but will throw a fit-at best-if you express a viewpoint that differs from theirs. They are racist, God-hating, murderous thugs that wrap themselves in intellectualism and social consciousness and in truth couldn’t do the first decent thing if their lives depended on it. And the they swarm like locusts-or cockroaches. Oh, and I hate the fuckin’ Eagles, man.

Two points:
1-if they want our guns, they will come when we are not home. Unless it’s an arrest warrant, law enforcement officers would prefer us not be there. When we get home, there will be 2 documents attached to the front door, a copy of the warrant & a list of what was taken.

2-those most outspoken about protecting Second Amendment rights will ultimately be the one’s who order confiscation.
Life is far more complex than us/them, red/blue, liberal/conservative, etc.

I have felt and stated in past posts that at some point gun confiscation will probably be one of or even become the trigger to Civil War 2…eventually. I fit perfectly into the old guy (69) former military category who will not go quietly into the night and will be willing to not only fight but die for the 2nd Amendment. Extensive plans and preps have been made with that in mind. Many of my friends ans neighbors in this part of flyover country feel the same.

A friend who is a Deputy Sheriff has told me that he and most of his peers have already agreed in private talks they would not follow orders to disarm Americans.

Looking into this with a buddy. Has anyone tried it?

Llpoh called it. They will gladly shed all of our blood. However, I don’t think they will do it by force at first. We have in place an endless list of laws and regs we have already broken. We just haven’t been told which ones yet. First they will do what they did in the 90’s that only us victims noticed because events like Waco were overshadowing the IRS and EPA coming around to visit us in the early 2nd amendment movement. Once word got out our attendance at meetings country wide dried up. You will be informed of some violation you’ve committed and have your assets frozen until those nasty guns get turned in. It will be gradual at first. Then, as “Not Sure” says, they will get violent. They are not in a big hurry. No need to be.

One of biggest problems I foresee is already happening. I would think most of you know what ‘eyewash’ is. If the low-level members of the military/agencies all believe that what they’re told is true, then they will do as ordered, and with patriotism and righteousness burning in their veins. They are not the enemy, per se, but will act on the enemy’s behalf. The deceptions of TPTB are deep, deep, deep.

Which begs the question – would you kill good people to live? If so, when and after what provocation? Because they will most certainly arrest or kill you, and believe they are doing justice. And some will be your friends, maybe even family, that believe that YOU are the problem and sincerely plead for you to come to your senses. In the Civil War, family killed family, and grieved the rest of their lives, but believed that they had acted properly. Both sides.
This is not a comforting, easy or simple decision to make. But you better contemplate it before the moment arrives, because at that moment you won’t have time to speculate, only act. Personally, I believe the vast majority will do as they have always done; blindly submit out of fear. Even a lot of the more bellicose here. Talk is cheap. Most will give up as soon as death is in their face.

For my part, I see it as only the final throes of a dead world. It ALL boils down to spiritual matters, for me. I believe the prophetic descriptions in God’s Word. Once again, my view, my choice, my consequences. Every single one will have to make their decision for themselves.

L. E.,

Your post was thoughtful and provocative asking and raising the gritty hard questions and realities past the stark inevitability of the looming tyranny. Trust me I have long wrestled with Gun Control – being disarmed-and prepped for slaughter because I have long believed it may may be a choice for me and I too “believe the prophetic descriptions in God’s Word.”

I do not see myself becoming a new chapter in Fox’s book of Martyrs…but who knows maybe filled with the Holy Spirit I would willingly submit to being disarmed and forced to surrender all I hold dear including my own life, but it would take God’s spirit as mine is much too weak to be meek. Never say never, God works through mysterious people???

“Which begs the question – would you kill good people to live?”

Seeing how I already have I believe under the right circumstances the answer still is yes. What is war but nothing but mostly good people killing one another, no matter who starts it or defends from it? I came close twice, but pulled back from the bottomless pit of murder, however I found killing in war under fire was like taking the next breath, automatic. Now, that was me. I saw others who were different and others in degrees, but most were just like me.

The provocation in this context is obviously either surrender your ability not to be slaughtered at their time of choosing or if you resist they will do it now. I KNOW THAT. I BELIEVE THAT.

Remember, there also is the deep woods plastic pipe path of the guerrilla. It may not be as simple as surrender all or die…for many.

“I believe the vast majority will do as they have always done; blindly submit out of fear. Even a lot of the more bellicose here. Talk is cheap. Most will give up as soon as death is in their face.”

You are probably right about many but I’m not sure about the percent. I’m also not sure about many who will be ordered to pull the triggers on those who won’t surrender all they believe that keeps them from being slaughtered like cattle mooing in line while being herded into the governments slaughter house. Especially when they suddenly start dieing in usually safe places.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand. The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst; the cursed machine would have ground to a halt . . .”

Mark,

I had a lot of the same thoughts you just shared. My comment was a little more general than it could’ve been, ’cause we could detail it all night long. And there is always a possible scenario that just doesn’t fit any of our preparations. That is when our core beliefs and principles will guide us. As you said, I just wanted people to face the reality – “Embrace the Horror,” as Rock Hound said. It’s going to be a bumpy ride, no matter what the fine points, or decisions.
My comment “most will give up” was about the general public’s knee-jerk reaction, not necessarily the sub-set (probably a majority % of TBPers) that have considered these concerns and are at least somewhat prepared emotionally and mentally. By the time they would recognize that resistance is preferable, it will most likely be too late.

Thanks for the great response, Brother. Something I’ve come to expect from you.

In one more generation guns will not need to be “grabbed”. They will be surrendered willingly by those who have been taught from birth that “guns are bad”.

The local cop station will offer money for every one of “grandpa’s” inherited guns turned over to them.

These people play the long game. They have patience and are far more subtle and intelligent than we typically credit them.

Remember many former military are now civilian gun owners and know how to use them . Don’t think they will lay down their arms without a fight . Once you have been placed in a kill or be killed situation and followed thru hesitation is something that does not occur . What happens is quick threat assessment target acquisition aim and fire . Those who learned this fact are generally the ones that come home physically sound surviving under fire changes you forever in places most cannot see !
