The GOP may use intimidation, tricks, threats, manipulation, mayhem etc. And their genocidal assault on the vulnerable, the middle class, veterans, et al who are not "CHOSEN" injures and kills people just the same as an AR15 only more savagely and slowly. All you have to do is what their policies have done to US citizens and others in the world.
The reason they have not sent the military and police against people who appose them is that they have not achieved complete power yet.
Ask yourself. Has the GOP done anything about evangelicals who have killed or intimidated people who work at women's health clinics? Have they really come out to help with these massacres except to shill for the NRA. Did any GOPPER really rail against gun violence at the grade school, Virginia tech or Aurora. They were all really silent and only played lip service.
Look at what happened to protestors at some of their events they were brutal to them. Folks you have to kid yourself if you believe that the GOP does not actually openly murder people. They do it every day in so many ways with policy.
Who was responsible for ending "posse comitatis" that would enable the military to assault US citizens on our own soil.
How many more people will have to die because the GOP is so evil. The violence against women act is now expired. I doubt it will be passed any time soon.

(797 posts)I'm a newcomer to politics I was never interested in anything political until Obama came along and i guess i got caught up in the media generated hysteria,now i'm some what of a political news junkie.
What have i learned in my brief foray into the world of politics?
Republicans are some batshit crazy people who seem to be consumed with hate,venom and vitriol,a compassionless bunch of morons who are easily led by their dysfunctional alternate reality rightwing media.
I cant figure out what the root cause is of their mean-spirited stance on everything but it certainly doesnt have Americas best interests at heart.
Evil? perhaps, ignorant? no doubt about it..

(9,462 posts)The anti-semite wing nuts have teamed up with the CCC wing nuts, who have teamed up with the christian radicals, who have teamed up with the anti-abortion extremists. It wasn't always this way. The Southern Poverty Law Center has always researched hate groups and the number is 3x what it was.
Here's one: CCC is conservative christian coalition, Nicky Haley Governor, Bob Barr, congressman have both spoken at their conferences. Also, this guy:
Kyle Rogers also has had something of a toehold in local politics, serving in 2007 as a delegate to the Charleston GOP county convention. He still urges CCC members to remind the party that it should be standing up for whites.as. He also has a radio show or blog something like that.
