You’d Better Get Tough and Get Used to It

Hey just so you know, leftists are going to riot for the entire time that a Republican is president for the rest of your life
So you better get tough and get used to it

What’s happening at the moment in Minnesota isn’t organic. It is sponsored by the CCP and billionaires who live there (Neville Roy Singham, as well as other bad actors who don’t live in the U.S.).
For proof see this thread and this thread. This is not in the category of protests – this is an insurgency run out of international offices, mainly the CCP, whom I predict we will be in a shooting war with inside of five years.
It is well rehearsed, well planned, well organized, and very effective. They are following the playbook written in Iraq and Afghanistan.
As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters,…

I would never claim that some misguided soul who wishes to protect and defend himself and his loved ones doesn’t have a right to carry arms. If he is a citizen, then he is covered under the U.S. constitution, the covenant that binds us. The second amendment is the guarantor of the right of amelioration of tyranny. I would never advocate a philosophical test to own arms. But what the constitution doesn’t grant is the right to overthrow the government and impose an even worse tyranny.
Unfettered immigration is tyranny because it is population replacement – a complete revision of culture, identity, and religious background and commitments – along with the theft of the wealth hard working men have earned through their lives to protect, defend and provide for their loved ones.
As to the notion of getting tough and getting used to it, that is the furthest thing from American minds right now. The Texas putz Ted Cruz wants to tone down the rhetoric.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said on his podcast that the Trump administration could improve “the tone with which they’re describing this.”
“Escalating the rhetoric doesn’t help, and it actually loses credibility,” Cruz said on Monday’s episode of “Verdict with Ted Cruz.” “And so I would encourage the administration to be more measured, to recognize the tragedy and to say, we don’t want anyone, anyone’s lives, to be lost, and the politicians who are pouring gasoline on this fire, they need to stop.”
Trump seems within a hair of firing the head of the DHS, Shawn Hannity wants ICE to stop targeting Home Depot.
America is soft, weak, ignorant, lazy, gullible and coddled, and when anything becomes hard or violent or difficult, it shies away from the hard things. America may have voted for this, but it thought it could happen without toughness. The first time America saw what it’s going to take to rid ourselves of this blight, it shrunk into the closet and cried for mommy.
America wants to watch its football games and halftime shows, buy jerseys of its favorite players, and eat chips and popcorn while it watches other men play at silly games.
We are at war, and those who can’t see it for what it is will get run over. In my estimation, America is finished. America had one chance. It blew it.

Regrettably, you may be right. Wars are fought in the physical, mental and moral realms, but they are won and lost in the mind. Wars are not just contests of physical toughness, they are contests of mental toughness. And right now, most Americans are not mentally prepared for fighting a war against a tough, determined enemy.
Seventy-five years of almost unbroken affluence, peace and prosperity has resulted in a population of people who are – on the whole – corrupt, decadent and weak. Obviously, there are exceptions, but the population at large is in sad shape.
Recent surveys of 18-25 year olds show that a startling number of members of that age cohort, the ones most-likely to be called upon to fight a major war, are physically, mentally and emotionally unfit to serve in the armed forces.
And they aren’t the only ones manifestly unprepared for such a circumstance.
Ken Royce, the firearms trainer and author otherwise known to the public as “Boston Tea Party,” the pseudonym under which he wrote “Boston’s Gun Bible” and many other titles, has said that in 1776, our ancestors had the courage and fortitude to fight a war, but lacked the tools with which to do it, such as adequate numbers of small arms and other weapons. But today, Royce muses, the circumstances are reversed: We are awash in the tools with which to resist, but lack the courage and fortitude our ancestors had.
Things have not yet gotten bad enough, difficult enough, for the ordinary or “average” American, to shake him out of his lethargy.
Mark Steyn, who wrote “America Alone” about twenty years ago or so, stated not long ago that back then, he feared that there was going to be a revolt. Today, he says his worst fear is that there won’t be one.

Has anybody ever asked why it is that with the NSA and FBI and the CIA conducting massive electronic surveillance on you white people with guns, and all the effort they put into hunting down and arresting the J6er Boomers and morons, and with thousands of military operators and contractors who are supposedly experts in tracking “insurgents” in Afghanistan, somehow they cannot shut down Antifa and these well-organized communist insurgents?
They always manage to come up with some hapless retards or mental cases, entrap them, and make a propaganda arrest (like the Gretchen Whitmer kidnap hoax, or Jerry Drake Varnell) but none of these communist types or Antifa are ever busted.
Interesting, ain’t it?
The only plausible explanation is that they WANT these people in the streets…

On events in Minneapolis-St. Paul, President Trump’s actions thus far have been remarkably restrained considering the full extent of the lawlessness, theft, and corruption involved, not to mention the tens of millions of illegals already in the country, across the U.S.
If our political leaders and the public can’t stomach video footage of a few illegals being taken into custody and perhaps deported, then how are they going to react to tens or hundreds of thousands of them receiving the same treatment, perhaps even millions?
Phrased metaphorically, the illness caused by massive illegal immigration into the United States over recent decades is so far advanced that major surgery is going to be required to save the “patient,” namely the republic itself. If the “patient” won’t consent to undergo the procedure, then his chances for survival are nil. At least if preserving the America of the Founders is in any way important to you.

More than once informed source has stated that the CIA textbook op for color revolutions is being used right here, right now, on U.S. soil.
False fronts, dupes, and controlled opposition are everywhere.
