Gun owners are now 'insurrectionists'

[SCKimberFan]

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams, et al, were all considered insurrectionists. I am happy to be included with these men who willingly gave their lives for their cause.

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Samuel Adams lost their lives during the Revolutionary War?

 

[SCKimberFan]

No, but they were willing to give their lives. Better?

To quote Steve Martin, "well, excuuuuuuuuse me!

I recently joined a militia.
That makes me more than insurrectionist. I think it makes me a "domestic terrorist"

On Glen Beck last night he spoke about a book out of France, written by the socialist left being released here in a couple of weeks in which they were OPENLY CALLING FOR ARMED INSURRECTION. The title was "The Coming Insurrection" Yet we're the bad guys?!?!?!?

Extreme Left Calling People to Arms

Wednesday, July 01, 2009

While the government warns that right-wing extremists could be domestic terrorists, and The New York Times, says I could incite those crazy conservatives to violence, the extreme left is actively calling for violence!

As world economies go down the tank and unemployment continues to rise, disenfranchised people are set to explode.

The dangerous leftist book that could spark this is The Coming Insurrection. This is a call to arms for violent revolution, authored anonymously by a French group called the Invisible Committee who want to bring down capitalism.

This started in France and spread to countries like Greece and Iceland, where people are out of work, out of money and out of patience.

Now its coming here. The book comes out in English in the U.S. in August. I have one of the first English copies.

The book was written after riots in the Paris suburbs in 2005 tore the country apart, and that was before the economy really got bad. This is the anti-Common Sense, where I call for peaceful protest.

This is a book of revolution. Remember this is not from the right, you know the radicals that everyone is so worried about in government. This is from the far left. Let me share a bit:

Take up arms. Do everything possible to make their use unnecessary. There is no such thing as a peaceful insurrection. Weapons are necessary.

The French government was so freaked out they arrested nine people believed to have written The Coming Insurrection on charges of criminal association for the purposes of terrorist activity for allegedly sabotaging train lines in France.

When I first heard of this book it was in The New York Times book section. A group had organized an unauthorized reading of The Coming Insurrection at a New York City bookstore. When they were shooed out of the store they went to Starbucks and so on. Not exactly terrorist activity; more of a curiosity.

But it gets a little more creepy when you look at this: One of those leaders arrested in France Julien Coupat was held for six months and just released this May. According to a story in The Globe and Mail back in January of 2008 while visiting Canada, Coupat and his girlfriend sneaked over the border to visit New York City. According to relatives, they didnt want their photos and fingerprints in the hands of U.S. authorities. Why is that? (By the way are our borders protected yet?)

Remember the media will tell you the right is the one to be feared. They do everything they can to tie any random nutjob shooting to conservatives. The shooter was a fan of 24′ — 24′ starred Jon Voight — Jon Voight is a conservative!

But this is a call for violence. Here is more:

Its a question of knowing how to fight, to pick locks, to set broken bones and treat sicknesses; how to build a pirate radio transmitter; how to set up street kitchens; how to aim straight.

The synopsis of the book describes it as an eloquent call to arms arising from the recent waves of social contestation in France and Europe a strategic prescription for an emergent war-machine to spread anarchy and live communism.

A few years ago I said that Europe is on the brink of destruction. This is yet another sign that its coming. Even in Japan where protests have been seen as taboo since the 1960s, young people angered over the economy and fear for their future — taking to the streets, beginning to unionize. The communist party of Japan says they are getting 1,000 new members a month.

This book has not even been released in this country yet. It has been passed hand to hand and via the Internet, much like the pamphleteers in pre-revolution America. Thomas Paine was one of them. He issued a call to arms. I am not doing that. You are an idiot if you start shooting people — all that does is delegitimize the cause. Be like Ghandi, like Martin Luther King.

But people on the extreme left are calling people to arms. I am not calling to ban this book, but you should read it to know what is coming and be ready when it does.

I did a quick search on this prof. Saul Cornell. He's a real ass hat and arrogant about it too. It seems his tune changed mid sentence after Heller. Before Heller ''militia'' meant National Guard (which uses many of the same weapons as the army) yet after Heller's ''individuals right'' decision, his interpretation of US v. Miller concluded that a sawed off shotgun was not a military weapon and so was not covered under the 2nd yet he also stated that military weapons such as ''bazookas'' and ''stinger missiles'' were not meant for the militia either, but these weapons were perfectly OK when militia meant the National Guard.

You cant agree with something one day and disagree with it the next because it no longer supports your agenda, and be taken seriously by rational people.

Then again from what what I've seen lately this country is no longer comprised mostly of rational people. People are more concerned about scoring tickets to M.J.'s funeral than their basic personal liberties.:banghead:
