I was shocked to hear my next door neighbor last night tell me "be prepared if Kah-mala wins. They think January 6th was bad? That was a drunk frat party compared to what's coming. She never even got the nomination. I got my guns ready and I know people with more than that. If these democrats steal the election in November, you better be ready. There's going to be blood in the streets."
You reported him to the FBI, right?
In Texas? For what? Being too Texan?
It'd be more efficient to drive to the nearby FBI campus and insult someone's mother if I wanted to get harassed by a federal agency.
I wish I were joking and I wish I weren't so scared.

The F in FBI stands for Federal. They don't give a fuck what State they're in.
But the workers are still average Americans.
There's nothing average about an FBI agent.
Well, she did though. There was a whole convention for it. But of course facts don't poll well with that demographic.
"They didn't even vote for her, they voted for the other guy in the primaries."
Me complaining about how fucked up two-party primaries are in the first place
"It's in the constitution! They claim this is a democra-..."
Me tuning out until his stupid words turned into violent words
The convention didn't have the right color fringe on their flag, so it doesn't count. Or something, I dunno.
Never ceases to amaze me how people boast about “what's coming” like they wouldn't be the first to turn into cannon fodder were something to actually happen
I'm not saying they're not going to try, but it will be much harder for them to do anything like they did last time on Jan. 6th. They had police, the DOJ, local officials and all kinds of state help last time while trump was still in office. This time, a lot of them have been put in jail and are certainly on lists. You have to be willing to put your world on the line and can't claim innocence, so you'd have to be an idiot to try anything. I understand how it feels to be surrounded by the worst of them, but I really don't think that's the deal.
January 6th and certifications are a known issue. I'm more worried about domestic terrorism from the anger. Hopefully they're loud about what they're planning, the current administrations seems to take that stuff seriously.
