Protesting and exercising 1st Amendment rights is as American as apple pie. The looting, rioting, and destruction taking place in areas across the country is not protesting – it’s anarchy. While there is no shortage of jokes going around about how these rioters come from their “mommies basement” and can be disbanded by throwing job applications at them – it’s a very serious situation. These rioters are fairly well organized, some are backed financially and even have legal representation, and are large in numbers. Police are powerless to respond in some areas due to being outnumbered – and the politics being played make things worse. Governors and mayors in the areas most affected are largely allowing the rioting to just continue. Large volumes of National Guardsmen are not being deployed. Curfews are enacted, threats of arrest are made, but, in the end, millions of dollars in damages are incurred and lives are lost.
The problem with movements such as BLM and Antifa is they fester and react on problems and specific events. They will grab hold of the smallest thing – or the biggest – and motivate their followers to behave in a manner that defies logic and common sense. Similar to a terrorist organization or financial religion?Absolutely. In 2020 there is no shortage of problems and a trend is continuing to show that not only are these rioters “triggered” more easily, but they are becoming more emboldened in their actions and demands.
One recent situation involved people eating in a restaurant. A BLM crowd came into the restaurant and told everyone to raise a fist in solidarity with BLM. One couple sitting at a table wouldn’t comply – and they were targeted. They were screamed at and threatened by numerous people. No violence – but infiltration of personal space certainly happened.
There are multiple sides and numerous facets to the issues which protesting and riots are taking place. Racial injustice and systemic racism is frequently heard from BLM. Antifa stands for economic equality(socialism) and says they are against fascism and capitalism. We all know they are actually the fascists. BLM and Antifa are but two groups that are most notable. Numerous militia groups and freedom-loving Patriots have also made themselves known as they stand against the policies – and groups – which are supporting economic COVID shutdowns as well as the rioting and looting. I have said for years when we get to a point where rioting is a daily event AND firearms are being used on both sides a tipping point has been reached – or is close at hand. It is now becoming more and more common that multiple sides are armed and actually engaging in firefights. People are being shot and people are dying.
The outcome of the elections in November will have an impact on this civil unrest. Should Trump gain an additional 4 years in the White House I am expecting a dramatic increase in protesting and violence. Should the Biden/Harris ticket win many who are protesting for change will have their outrage quelled and likely will garner some sense of satisfaction and patience to wait and see the change they so desire to occur. But hey – who knows?
Current events are inspiring discussions on Internet forums about the possibility that history will show we are in the beginning stages of a second civil war. The growing division in this country is alarming. I’ve discussed the entire “civil war” and “revolution” perspective before and have named what I call the coming event the American Reformation. While the recent election of outsider Donald Trump have given many hope that the government will be given back to the people, however the reality is while improvements may be made his election is triggering a new, more radical movement in the United States.
Since 2008 the country has become more and more divided. A large percentage of the population has woken up to the destructive actions taken by our out of control government. Government has grown far too large and far too overbearing. Racial tensions have increased, political infighting is at an all time high, and journalism is dead while agenda-based reporting rues the day. If you are reading this article you already know.
So – if Patriots have come together in such numbers that they elect a political outsider why is there not certainty that true political change will occur and the risk of an American Reformation be diminished?
Let’s consider a few things:
Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by 2.1% – or 2,865,075 votes.
Trump won the Republican primary though he received only 44.9% of the vote – thus 55.1% voted against him.
Trump won 30 states while Hillary won 21 states/districts.
In the Republican and Democratic primaries Trump received a total of 14,015,993 votes. All those running against him? 47,288,998.
The point is the entire country did not not get behind this political outsider in fact the vast majority of those politically active was against Trump and his message/movement. Obviously many came together to support Trump however his support was NOT a mandate as many suggest. While an outsider such as Trump certainly appears to bode well to act for us against the political establishment it does not erase the massive establishment and the Loyalist movement that is currently erupting.
There are serious reasons to be concerned.
Be Concerned:
The Liberal Progressive(Loyalist) movement is becoming more and more radical, hateful, and violent. Frequently threats of death and violence are seen all over social media. Celebrities, journalists, and even some politicians are actively promoting radical actions and violence against those who disagree with them(Patriots and often police). Folks – the division is growing and the list of incidents is growing.
President Obama has supported violence by lending understanding and compassion to the Black Lives Matter movement.
Racial tensions continued to grow throughout the past 8 years as President Obama continued to speak on numerous incidents without having all the facts and provided credence to those who felt victims were targeted due to their color. In almost every single case Obama’s initial take on the situation turned out incorrect.
Riots and “protests” in Liberal areas are allowed to be violent where people are injured and even killed. Property is destroyed and local politicians order “space” to be given so that the rioters can express their “feelings”.
While Liberals state that Patriots “cling to their guns and religion” and promote that Trump supporters are violent – the reality is that Liberals invaded Trump rally’s and have attacked supporters on numerous occasions.
Anti-Patriot Liberals continue to attack Trump supporters and burn the American flag on a regular basis.
Look at the mass shootings that have taken place over the last 8 years. Who carried out these horrendous deeds? Psychopaths who have a Liberal ideology.
The anti-police movement has been supported – or at a minimum condoned – widely by the Progressive/Loyalist movement.
The Mainstream Media(MSM) has blatantly misrepresented facts and under-reported stories that were either critical of the Progressive movement or positive towards Conservatives/Patriots.
….there are many more.
To sum it up Loyalists are becoming more and more hateful and violent. The recent post-inauguration protests and riots as well as the Women’s March is a perfect example of this. It is only a matter of time before more conflict and violence erupts.
WARNING: The video below contains profanity.
What the Future Holds:
Awaiting us in the future is a growing trend of division between Patriots and Loyalists. Loyalist groups, special interests, and politicians will stop at nothing to further their agenda’s. The 1st Amendment will come under attack. The 2nd Amendment will come under attack. The Left will begin to embrace the 2nd Amendment for themselves in an effort to “arm up” against the “Alt-Right”. Social justice and alternative logic will be used to label Patriots as racist, sexist, homophobes, hate mongers who want to hurt children and old people. The MSM will be the tool used to brainwash the populace.

Armed confrontations will become more commonplace etween Loyalists and Patriots.
Mass disruptions to transportation routes and public venues
Blatant media bias against Patriots will become more widespread.
Direct violence against Patriots resulting in serious injury and death.
A massive campaign to take back Congress and the White House in 2020.

Conclusion:
Things are unpredictable and happening fast. No one knows precisely what the future holds. What is certain the Loyalist will stop at nothing to gain power and attempt to create an America very much different than what the Founders intended. To what extent these Progressives will go is not fully known. They are organized, well funded – and extremely motivated.
We must respond by preparing for what awaits. We must be politically active and support Constitution-supporting politicians at every level of government. We must spread the word and bring others into the fold to increase our numbers.
I received the following via email from AlertsUSA:
Beginning Wednesday, AlertsUSA subscribers were notified of anti-Trump protests underway in cities across the US, including New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Fran & Seattle. The protests expanded to numerous other cities on Thursday and Friday nights, with mostly college-aged social justice warriors pouring into the streets to disrupt traffic, harass, and in many locations, setting fires and destroying storefronts.
On Thursday night in Portland, OR, thousands of demonstrators gathered in the city center area and smashed shop and car windows, threw firecrackers, attacked police and set rubbish piles ablaze. Police declared a riot, deployed tear gas and made 26 arrests.
Anger over Donald Trump’s election has also resulted in a large wave of calls for his assassination appearing on a variety of social media platforms including Twitter and Facebook. Singer Marilyn Manson released a music video this week featuring him beheading a figure who looks like Donald Trump, and online video sites such as YouTube have numerous videos of Trump supporters being viciously attacked (see this, this and this).
AlertsUSA cautions readers that these protests are expected to continue and even expand between now an Inauguration Day. You are well advised to choose your words and battles wisely. The political left is enraged and unpredictable.
To the extent that I could possibly understand the actions of these individuals – what I do know is these people are dangerous. Regardless of the fact they are considered Liberals gun usage is not something that can be ruled out. The complete lack of morals provides them the perspective that anything allowing the arrival to their goal is fair game.
The big question is how many will resort to these tactics – and worse – and how far will they go.
