More evidence of birther/racist wingnuttery as reported by Yes To Democracy:

A group called "ACTIVE" (aka "American Constitution and Capitalism Defense Front") has called for a "National Strike Against The Dictator" on 4 November.....
Yes To Democracy: What if they gave a strike and nobody cared?? (http://www.yestodemocracy.com/yes_to_democracy_no_to_pu/2009/07/what-if-they-gave-a-strike-and-nobody-cared.html#comments - broken link)
Get your history right, for a change? The founding fathers weren't up in arms over a tax, just the way in which it was imposed, and there were far deeper issues than just taxes.
As for your question, if and when the democratic process is curtailed, i.e., the cancelation of elections or the imposition of a military dictatorship then call me. But an armed revolution because you don't get your way in a democracy is when I pick up my weapon (for the second time) and defend my country against the likes of you.
oh man, I thought this thread was going to be about the civil war between those with at least a partial brain and the lemmings that are still ignorant enough to believe/support obama. I consider them an invasion of the worst kind and definitely a major threat to this wonderful country.
People in this country are fine, as long as they've got their gasoline, cable tv, iPods, food, electricity, heat in the winter and coolers in the summer.
yes American's love their things,but you underestimate the character of many American's.
True revolution won't come until you take all of these things away.
Wake up one day and find your gas stations closed, cable tv gone, cell phone not working, grocery stores closed, lights off and .... Shazam ... it's time to take up arms.
Loosing that won't create chaos and revolution.We in Miami after hurricane Andrew lost all that and most helped each other instead of robbing.Government wouldn't purposely take that stuff away.Revolution might happen when government declares marshall law and declares the laws of the landout right void with no vote,no reasoning.
Our founding fathers went to war over a stupid little 3% tax on, of all things, tea ... Americans will go to war and fight over some of the dumbest things ... but when the real important stuff is threatened ... we all just seem to roll over, wanting another hour of sleep.
It was more than about taxes,it was about having a government rule them without proper representation with a king unelected who was the final word.American colonists were treated as underclass by the British.Colonists didn't just jump into war,they attempted to negotiate a great amount before going to war.
Americans, by and large, don't care if America becomes socialist, communist, facist, or any of that ... just so long as they can chase that pretty girl, watch Oprah, have a beer, play on the computer, or talk on the wireless all day.
We elect the politicians,whether you agree with them or not.And even still you have many was yo voice opinion after a election.Look at the voices and protest over cap and trade,or the tea parties.It is not as if we elected a government that is lifetime term in office.When they become that,then you will have a good reason for discussing a revolution.Bad laws can be overturned if unpopular enough or is deemed unconstitutional.
