Know the Enemy!

[BerettaGuy]

I am posting this story so that those of us on the pro-gun side of the fight that are under the age of 40 can get an idea of what we are up against. This woman's description of the "Left" and their tactics is a very good albeit long read.

We have just spent 8 years of Obama and the most significant swing to the left in our history. We did not espouse violence, we did not call names, we complied. They still hate us. Now the power has shifted and low and behold, name calling - violence and more is occurring by the "peaceful Leftists".

In my humble opinion it is going to get worse, much worse. We have to know how to fight it. To do that we have to understand the enemy. Take 10 minutes and read this woman's expose on the enemy we are going to have to come to blows with soon. To win we must go after the head of the snake. The snowflakes we all know are just cannon fodder or the tail of the snake.

She is speaking of her journey in the first person.

American Thinker: Top Ten Reasons I Am No Longer A Leftist

IMHO, what is in the streets today, antifa for example, is much worse. They are preternaturally violent, in essence, because they live to generate fear and to harm others.

They love to dress in black, and from their appearance have wondered, Where's the response?

I no longer believe in occupying the "moral high ground" - the leftist response to Trump's election makes it clear that the moral high ground has submerged under a sea of hate and vitriol.

If a definitive kinetic stand isn't made soon, and forcefully, "we" will have ceded the field to the leftists and anarchists. Once again, we'll hold the imaginary "moral high ground", but be isolated on islands in a sea of hate, anarchy and misery.

I have no interest in being on the last Huey out of Saigon - I am interested in that Apache very much, however.

Nice posting. I especially love this nugget (great that it's coming from a woman too):

The left’s selective outrage convinced me that much canonical, left-wing feminism is not so much support for women, as it is a protest against Western, heterosexual men. It’s an “I hate” phenomenon, rather than an “I love” phenomenon.

Amen, sister.

From the article: I had another Aha! moment while listening to a two minute twenty-three second YouTube video of Milton Friedman responding to Phil Donahue’s castigation of greed. The only rational response to Friedman is “My God, he’s right.”

I remember sharing this video during a presentation for one of my grad school classes. It did not go over well with the student body. I did wind up getting an A- in the class (I guess it would've been A+ if I have one less Milton Friedman video)
