Republican Georgia state Sen. Colton Moore on Tuesday told “War Room” host Steve Bannon that he plans to push the legislature to defund Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, arguing that Trump’s prosecution threatens to ignite a “civil war.” Moore complained that indicted fellow state Sen. Shawn Still is going to have to spend “a million dollars” to defend himself in the case. “It’s just like Nazi Germany,” Moore claimed. “I mean, they want to call us the Nazis and their actions are Nazism.”

    I think it’s at a point where the left needs to arm themselves and train their family to operate firearms safely. 2024 will see “lone wolfs” born of stochastic terrorism like this. They are prepping the handful of armed mentally ill to commit violence on Americans if they don’t get their way.

    There were multiple bomb threats against elementary schools and libraries recently.

      The lefts stance on gun control and violence will literally kill us. I’ve been kicked out of so many left-leaning communities for saying I own guns and target shoot in my spare time. Motherfucker, these people are shooting our children and families at the mall and you’re too scared to pick up a 9mm and learn how to use it because guns are scary? The alternative is a lot scarier.

        I guess there’s a tipping point where there’s so much guns laying around that carrying over is safer than not but I would rather put efforts into avoiding reaching that tipping point.

        Almost all problems can be solved with either violence or kindness.

        This. It doesn’t matter if you’re a liberal, or progressive, or just a Democrat. If you don’t love Trump and Jesus like they do, you will be a target. Win or lose for Trump this election, there will be violence. I sure am not going to a bullet trap for some brush ape. Load the fuck up people.

        The two topics I usually argue with my Mom about are why I feel the need to own guns because they’re scary and should be illegal and how the fascists want to overthrow our democracy. I’m always confused about how such an intelligent person can’t see the folly in this line of thinking. Why would you want to ban the very tool necessary for protecting our freedoms from those who want to take them from us through force and violence. Stay armed, and stay safe. The world keeps getting scarier.
