I'm for it.
Well, a case could be indeed be made that the Obama administration has been treasonous. The problem is, its in his doing things like what Tea Partiers tend to like.
It'll totally work.
Holy crap, 1,346 people say they are going. That's a massive outpouring of crazy.

Nothing says "organized movement" like freaking out over a solitary troll, lol.
Eh, they kinda have a point.
I hope they actually try it. It will be hilarious. Until the shooting starts, I mean.

It's all fun and games until someone gets shot, then it's fucking hilarious (not really)! Yeah, I'm sure no one has thought of just going to capital hill and arresting congress, the president, and the vice president...or maybe they have, but then remembered reality doesn't work that way.
Quote from: "commonsense822"Eh, they kinda have a point.
And what point is that? I mean besides "thar's neegra inna white haws" point that they seem to be stuck on?
"Nutty" doesn't quite cover it for the Tea Party. I know a couple of people here in my mobile home court and another guy that owns a restaurant, and they are all certified racist wackos. I told one guy before the election that Obama would win, and he literally has refused to speak to me since. I hope they show up and I hope they get arrested, fuck them.
I seriously hope they try. That would be really funny.
I dont have Facebook. Are they plotting a revolution against the feds?
Quote from: "_Xenu_"I dont have Facebook. Are they plotting a revolution against the feds?
They wanna go to the steps of the capital and issue a citizen's arrest of congress, the president, and the vice president.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh please, let this idea gain traction.
I was reading the comments and most of them don't seem to realize how laughable the whole thing is and how pathetic they come off. It's like overhearing a bunch of 3rd grade kids scheming against the teacher.

I can't believe that some people are so stupid that they actually take that shit seriously. This is like one of the highlights in the Entire History of Human Stupidity™, this is a moment of epic stupidity that we are fortunate to witness. I want to someday tell my grandchildren that I witness this the grandest of fiascoes in the annals of all grand fiascoes.

I had to look that up. There's actually a book called A Short Introduction to the History of Human Stupidity by Walter B. Pitkin, I'm going to see if I can find an ebook.
Haha, that sounds like a hilarious book.

Please don't make me read that whole FB page (I clicked on it and scanned it tho)
*my EYES?? what has been seen cannot be UNseen!*
just tell me......... WTF are the nutbaggers ranting about now?? NOW what's their problem?
PS I fear to scroll and read the entire page because I'll probably find my brother posting there. *sigh*
Yanno - they could have at least chosen JUNE 14th. That's National Flag Day and has at least some significance to it.
LOL
QuoteChristopher Hershman
Please clarify: Is the MASS ARREST of the criminal traitor politicians or us?
Gotta be my favorite thing on the front page of this.
I still don't know (or can't tell) what climbed up their asses THIS time?
now what?
Revolution! Finally we can utterly destroy the republican and Christians and make America more pure and less corrupt! HORAY!
They way they plan on going about this is completely naive, they think that they are going to be able to just stroll up to the steps of Congress and start arresting politicians. If only it was that easy. But when you get down to it, many of those politicians have committed treason towards their country. They sold their positions to the highest bidder and no longer reflect what the American people want, and continue to infringe upon the freedom of American citizens for their own selfish reasons.

It's not tea. It's Kool-Aid, and they drank too much of it.

Obviously I know the reality is that if some yokels tried to do citizens arrests of congressmen, they would, uh, not get very far. But, I'm kinda curious, what, in theory, should happen? I did a quick read of Wikipedia's article on citizens arrest. Yeah, I know not scholarly, just trying to get a feel for what, in theory, a citizen could do. It says that laws do vary from state to state, some states would require the citizen to actually see the crime take place, while others only require that you have probable cause to suspect the crime has taken place and the party you are arresting is the perpetrator.
So, if I genuinely believe that a congressman has committed treason, and let us assume that the crime in question is public knowledge, so I could reasonably claim that I have seen the crime take place, shouldn't I, in theory, be able to do a citizens arrest?
Again, of course, I know that reality is that I'd get hauled off to jail. I'm just trying to think about what, in theory, could be done? And how, perhaps, it should really work?

I can just see the chaos down at the police station. Congressmen being brought in handcuffs and the police standing around scratching their heads. Pretty soon the Police Chief would show up and say, "OK Guys, you had your fun," and then arrest you for harrassing public officials.
Now assuming you could actually get the police to cooperate, I'm guessing you would have to show up in court and testify, and then the judge would throw you in jail.
Naw. It ain't gonna fly.

Ya, once we get rid of everyone in the federal government we will get rid of the corrupt and then start a whole new cycle.

There's Kool-Aid to be drank on both sides, just a different flavor.

Yes, public officials are not exempt to the law; no matter hard they try to be.

As long as you did it peacefully, thre should be no reason for you to get hauled off to jail. Now the case probably wouldn't go to court, but if you got arrested that is corruption at it's best.

The same thing that was always up their asses - their heads. Down with Obama, down wit' da gobernment (dey dun gonna take er gunns!) Same ol', same ol'.
It's actually an interesting mishmash of teabagger, birther, and conspiracy theorist talking points mixed with right-wing news stories and quotes from famous politicians of old meant as endorsements of what can be generously referred to as their way of thinking. Pure inept rage and self-important screeds. It makes for enlightening reading, just not in the way the author intended.
I particularly love how they denigrate people who disagree with them as traitors while talking about arresting duly-elected government officials, the federal reserve, and the council on foreign relations. #-o

That's true, but there is a good case to be made that the ones doing the most shit brained thing at any given moment are the ones who drank the most at that particular time.

I ran this on my FB page. Was great to get some good responses. If I hadn't taken up a cause with a guy and Change.org petition I'd have revved this subject up more. Priorities - right? A guy getting his much deserved insurance money just became more important to me than these RightWingNutJobs. Go figure eh?
LOL

You should in theory be able to make an arrest but of course realistically you just can't. Even if you could get the police to help you make the arrest, and a judge to actually serve the sentence, we can't forget that politicians have this amazing ability to just pardon people, and they have been known to use it on their politician friends. Nixon was set to be the first president to be impeached and charged with a crime, but instead resigned and was later pardoned. The war crimes that Cheney and Bush took part in were forgotten when Obama urged us to look forward, not backwards. Politicians protect their own.
That is why I do to some degree agree with their point. The entire system is corrupted, Republicans and Democrats, and if you think that a few good politicians can save the system it is just as naive as thinking that adding a few white blood cells to a person with AIDS will cure them. I don't think their way is the way to do it though. Ideally I would like to have a whole new set of laws drafted over the next decade and upon completion lets just rip down the current legal system and replace it with the new one. But the implications for that are rather impractical.

Protesting does do shit, just not with sign and chants. If you say, don't vote the fuckers back in because they are to retarded to work together and bring in some new people, changes can be made.

I would have to agree with this at the period we are in. OWS didn't do NEARLY enough compared to the Tea Party, who actually got their nutbags into gov't at the state and federal level.

If you truly believe that voting doesn't do squat, move to a country that is ruled by dictators and there is no voting. If your only reason for wanting to take down the government by force is to legalize weed than I would recommend you go to the nearest mental institution and check yourself in.

QuoteThe federal government will do what they want folks! The fighting is all a dog and pony show!! No matter what they say - let the BS happen in March - they will do it no matter what! The reason I picked May 14th is to STOP the debt ceiling from being raised and we take another screwing on May 19th! After they are arrested - no more damage can they do!! The new congress can END the FED and nullify ALL our debt!! There will be a stop in spending for the federal government - SSI and other federal things - but we will work through it all! Without change there is no change!
QuoteWE ARE NOT OVERTHROWING THE GOVERNMENT! WE ARE ARRESTING THOSE WHO HAVE COMMITTED TREASON! WE WILL VOTE TO REPLACE ALL OF THEM!

It doesn't when the entire game is rigged. 84% of the country wants to take money out of politics and end large private campaign contributions. But you don't see any politicians talking about campaign finance reform. In our most recent congressional election cycles, the highest spender has won generally around 85% of the time.
//http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2011/oct/17/occupy-wall-street/occupy-wall-street-protesters-sign-says-94-percent/
Our previous Congress had a 13% approval rating. They are no longer listening to their constituents. People typically end up voting in who they consider the lesser evil, not an actual candidate that represents them.
When people vote third-party consistently and in large numbers, change might be had.
