They must act! Come up their respective NGs and put them under state control.

Oh no. Do you have any names of those doxxed? I would like to send my well-wishes.

Newsom should have called up the guard first, put them under his direct command, then ordered them to remain in barracks. Let MAGA figure that one out. We need to get creative.

That's exactly what MAGA wants, chaos.

Take the shot

It is true. Everybody's quoting that 3.5% figure but that is to bring down an already existing regime. Non-violence has never stopped the rise of an oppressive government. I don't know about the rest of you but I would prefer these bastards even not get started.

Oh, you want to bring the "law" into this. How cute.

This is not exactly true. The president can nationalize the NG and put it under federal control. I expect that to happen here.

Most definitely. But I'm more disgusted with the veterans who support him. I just can't wrap my head around that. We know better than the civvies.

I understand that reasoning. The movement maintains legitimacy as long as nonviolence is a central tenant. But we must be ready, willing and able to respond. Because the violence is here. It's already in the streets. And as you note, it's going to get worse. I, for one, won't go down easy.

I hope I'm wrong and all this can be resolved without firing a shot. Human history doesn't support that dream.

Sounds like the lawyers are trying to make the case Lindell's insane - which he is - without actually using those words or producing medical evidence (because no way Lindell's going to submit to a psychiatric exam.) What is "triggered" besides "temporary insanity?"

If we had moved faster, before they had the chance to solidify their planning, we might have avoided some of this. Now it's a fight. Now it gets bloody.

I believe that is true
