Some of us understand the trap. This is a Westboro Baptists scenario, and we are all rooting for you, but we know that an undisciplined response could be a disaster for all of us.
Yeah it's very important that the protests remain peaceful. They need to exist and they need to be large, but it's not time for a physical confrontation yet.
My concern is that the FBI or CIA will goad some a****** online into doing something stupid.
Shooting at some national guardsmen or congressman will not help the cause. The purpose of a protest is to gain public sympathy, this is why protest should never be violent.
Violence has to be the last option, period. And when it does become necessary, it has to be applied strategically in order to undermine and bring about the collapse of the existing power structure, not win a PR battle.
The people calling for another 1776 over this are fools. Go peacefully and let Northam have you arrested for doing something that was legal before he came to power. Become a legal martyr, that's how you open normies eyes.
Do not go popping off with some random act of violence which leads to your death and the legitimization of Northam's program at the same time.
Be brave and be smart. Think about the consequences of your actions
I don't want to, I like this state, but peaceful protests and voting can only do so much. The politicians are playing a dangerous game and I'm not sure what to expect from these events.
Don’t move from Virginia. I did it (to Indiana) and I hate that I am one less voice to stand against all of this. I love living in a conservative state, but I feel like a coward for not being in a state that needs conservative voices now more than ever.
Explain to me exactly what you want to happen and how you think it would play out.
Perhaps you dream that armed protestors will spontaneously develop military discipline, gun down the national guard, storm the capitol of Virginia, burn it down and kill all the Democrats. Then the rest of the country says, "holy shit they really kicked their ass, we'll never fuck with the second amendment again!"
Is this your idea?
Because here's the reality. One guy pops off and everybody starts screaming and chaos breaks out. Republican politicians denounce, all conservative talking heads denounce, MSM runs stories about how the shooter is a white supremacist. Northam asks for federal help to disarm violent white nationalist fascist terrorist agitators in his state and now Trump has to comply or be branded with it.
Stop being a fool. Think things through, don't be ruled by your emotions. This country is a gigantic behemoth composed of millions of people and you can't change it's course with a rash, random, and frankly immoral acts of violence.
"Stop being a fool. Think things through . . . this country is sparsely populated . . . you can change history with rash, random acts against a rich, organized, British Army." Go to Hell, Loyalist.
IS a troll. And manages to say things juuuuuust innocuous enough to keep from getting banhammered. All the fucking time. Never posts between certain hours, because the mf-er is getting paid.
He is a troll why else would he have that name. I see people like him on other places....he thinks this is Reddit and he will be able to report us to the Red Army....This is not Rodent Reddit.

If it comes to it, I will move out of Virginia.

and I just moved here from CA.
ooooofff lol I'm sorry but welcome to VA, if you aren't in fucking NOVA I'm sure you know the rest of VA isn't as cucked as up here.

Let's all just keep moving until all freedom-loving Patriots live in a Gulag in the Mid-West!
