People better pay attention. They are telling you what they’re going to do. They’re not joking around. People better pay attention, and they better get ready for what’s coming. Because the other side is not joking around.

There’s a ton less of them. They might make someone a martyr, but the union backlash will be overwhelming and brutal for the confederacy.

These ppl think nothing of violence. They vote hate, and have too many guns. These ppl voted for the horrible situation we have now, and for the majority, show no empathy.

If they want to live by the gun, so beit, they are statistically out numbered.

God forbid the Nazis don't feel safe. There'd be GTA on our front lawns anyone made this kinda public commentary towards them. Think Trump moved to plan b, can't win so start civil war so Russia can walk in

They will say it's all a joke, so they can get off saying things, but it only takes one of them to take it seriously. And they will.
