WATCH: Republican Kentucky Governor Calls For Bloody Rebellion If Hillary Clinton Is Elected
Source: Addictinginfo
In a move that should make Kentucky voters hang their heads in shame, Bevin appeared before a crowd at the Values Voter Summit on Saturday and instantly made conservative Christians even more paranoid and bloodthirsty than they already were by claiming that Hillary Clinton is a tyrant who will destroy America if she is allowed to be in charge for very long.
We dont have multiple options, he said. Were going one way or were going the other way, politically, spiritually, morally, economically, from a liberty standpoint. Were going one way or were going the other way.
...
After declaring that America is worth fighting for, ideologically, Bevin suggested spilling blood if thats what it takes to keep Hillary Clinton and the Democrats out of power.
Somebody asked me yesterday, I did an interview and they said, Do you think its possible, if Hillary Clinton were to win the election, do you think its possible that well be able to survive? That we would ever be able to recover as a nation? And while there are people who have stood on this stage and said we would not, I would beg to differ. But I will tell you this: I do think it would be possible, but at what price? At what price? The roots of the tree of liberty are watered by what? The blood, of who? The tyrants to be sure, but who else? The patriots. Whose blood will be shed? It may be that of those in this room. It might be that of our children and grandchildren. I have nine children. It breaks my heart to think that it might be their blood that is needed to redeem something, to reclaim something, that we through our apathy and our indifference have given away.

I know that Addicting Info may not be on par with the big names, but here is the link to the YouTube video of the speech:
As Kentuckian I am appalled and embarrassed. I am also more firmly convinced than ever that the Governor's election was fraudulent.

I can't believe I live in a time when our elected officials talk openly about rebellion. He is far from the only one. Perry, Abbot......... Trump for sure
And should anything like that happen you can sure bet that neither he nor any of his immediate family would be involved.

I really hope the CJ and Lexington Herald pickup on this and put this SOB through the grinder. Really? He wants to "shed the blood of his children"? He should be pulled from office and sent to a mental institution.

(14,592 posts)gun and bunker loving survivalists like those kooks that came out with their machine guns to support the welfare rancher Cliven Bundy. Same group of jokers that took over that federal land in Clark County, NV, and later staged the armed sit-in at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in OR earlier this year.
See the thing that frankly scares the be-jeezus out of me is that these whack-jobs, assorted nuts and flakes are HEAVILY ARMED.
Thanks NRA. When we lose what freedoms we still have and 'christian' pastors have imposed christ-aria law on us, and we're being burned at the stake and hanged so the high muckety mucks can confiscate our property, then the rank and file NRA members, Fox and hate-talk radio listeners might be singing a different tune.
Oh, actually no they won't. They will have lost their freedom of speech just like the rest of us.
Nacht und Nebel anyone???
Because that's where we're headed.

A moral struggle against those, who believe that some of us shouldn't be here, and should not have any rights. A moral struggle for social and economic justice for all. Talk to your children about morality. Tell them that seeing other people as "less than," "not as good as," and "illegitimate" is immoral.

(7,964 posts)I thought it was Trump, and his supporters, who were going to bring a "revolution" and "change". Until November I am sinking further and further into depression. After watching snippets of CNN tonight and their obsession that the Clinton campaign is "hiding something", I am in a mood, and it's not a good one.

(4,157 posts)I came home from work completely depressed. I live in very liberal San Francisco, and I only know ONE Trump supporter.
Nonetheless, it's the continual, unabashed Republican slant to EVERYTHING-- ALL the news channels (which I do not watch). . . HOW in the FUCK can it be that this. . . this 'Thing" with the orange hair can beat perhaps the most qualified presidential candidate in history? I feel ill.

(10,252 posts)Don't fall into indifference and depression. We need you in our struggle against the immorality and depravity of the alt-right Fascists and racists. Think positive, because HRC will be the next president. They, the basket of deplorables, will continue with the ugliness and obstruction that they've waged against Obama. Maybe even more so. We live in degenerate times. But the good news about degenerate times is that we have a target-rich field of opportunity for improvement. A target-rich field to encourage those with us in this great moral struggle. A target rich field to earn merit by the practice of wisdom and compassion. Speak and teach about the virtues of right speech, gentle speech, speech that is non-divisive. We can win this fight, but not if we fall into depression and indifference.

(7,021 posts)and of course blame Obama for the loss of jobs in Kentucky due to the coal industry slow down. Why don't the ask their gov. and their senator why they have not lifted a finger to help . Why don't they do like the republicans said to us who lost jobs , retrain yourselves for different jobs. Why not bring alternative energy business to Kentucky.

About two weeks ago I was talking to a distant cousin in Mississippi about a family history matter when he suddenly took off on a tangent: "If Hillary is elected this nation will be destroyed!!! We are all but done for now after eight years of Obummer!!! She will finish us off!!! I know a lot of us who won't stand for it if she wins!!!" I was too shocked to press for details -- he continued to rave for a few more minutes then I signaled my wife to call me so I could hang up.
Last week I was in local gun shop buying some gun cleaning supplies. A guy was buying an AR-15, 400 rounds of ammo, and several 30-round magazines all the while talking about "the revolution that's coming if that bitch is elected . . . we won't stand for it." A friend of mine who works at the shop told me later they are seeing 2-3 of these a week.
What the hell they will do when Hillary wins is beyond me.
So far, I have had to replace my "Clinton-Kaine" yard sign twice and a neighbor reports that last night his "Clinton-Kaine" bumper sticker was spray-painted over and "Trump" was spray-painted on his windshield -- car was parked in his driveway.
Trump has stirred up the most evil, violent forces I have ever seen since the 1950's when I was growing up in Mississippi and the Klan was in charge.

(251 posts)Sedition is exactly what the new republicans are all about. When they start taking up guns or arms then we are talking treason at a minimum. I've not seen such vial, rude, hate for any candidate as I've seen for Hillary. We can fight back of course, and that is to dump a ton of TV ads and a good old propaganda campaign all over the state. The Dems in the state need to be emboldened, they need something to say and a reason to get to the polls.
If nothing else Bevin just threw us a bunch of sound bites to wrap him up until the next Gov election. Someone suggested the Ky governor's election rigged. I'm of the belief that it was simply bought and bribed. I think a lot of the "ministries" are simply paid to bring parishioners to the polls. Some people they will even pay directly. It has nothing to do with issues. It has everything to do with working the machinery of the back country. McConnell figured it out along time ago has played it perfectly with lots of untraceable cash. Every so called "Ministry" down in the back country is a thiefdom of crooks and tools for the republican C-wing. That is what needs to be broken.

(10,252 posts)They roamed the streets beating up people, writing slogans on walls and buildings. Make no mistake, the ultra-RWers are Fascists, who would impose their rule by intimidation and violence if they could. The scarey thing about Bevin is that he has a national guard that he can call up. No match for the regular US Army, but even so ...

(1,779 posts)your statement must be true, because the consequences for not being true are so great. So, Bevin says that his reasoning must be true because of the consequences he imagines.
This reminds me of people who say that we must remain in Afghanistan forever, because if we don't, we will have lost everything we gained and that outcome is insupportable.
Absolute nonsense.
If we say that something must be true because, if it is not, all puppies and cats will die, that does not make it true. (Let me say that I like puppies and cats, especially kittens. By the way, if anyone would like 16-year-old cat that sheds, feel free to give me a jingle.)
Bevin is stating his conclusions in this end-of-times Manner of speaking because he thinks that it will motivate people. And it may well motivate quite a few, especially if you talk about people spilling their blood, etc. But that does not make it logical or correct. No matter what the consequences, the logic overall may well dispute it. And clearly he knows the lies he is spouting.
What a putz!
