Trump’s rhetoric excites ‘Christian soldier’ for civil war: ‘Your skin color will be your uniform’

Source: Raw Story

Donald Trump’s recent rhetoric about rigged elections and a constitutional crisis would fulfill the fantasies of some supporters, who’ve been stockpiling weapons and food as they look forward to what most people would consider a worst-case scenario.

Jim Moseley, a self-described “Christian soldier” from Greenville, South Carolina, is buying extra ammunition and canned goods to prepare for what he believes will be a second civil war, reported The (Toronto) Star.

“Once the trucks stop rolling, the grocery shelves will go empty and gasoline rationing will go into effect,” Moseley wrote in a Facebook message early this week.

The newspaper caught up with Moseley, a 59-year-old retired salesman, earlier this week to discuss Trump’s darkening campaign rhetoric.

Who would organize it? You can't just go out and start shooting people. Would they go to their state capitols and try to take hostages? Would they go to Washington and try to do something there?

What is their plan? You have to have a plan to over throw a govt. You don't just sit around on social media and chant revolution.

I'm truly curious how many would really try and do this? I suspect most are all talk and no action. But there are true nuts out there.

Today's modern GOP and Christian militia types talk a good game, and they *LOVE* to use violent imagery. They love that shit. You could say they are addicted to violence. But when the time would actually come for them to use their precious guns and fight for that constitution they hold most dear, I can guarantee all of them would chicken out at the last minute.

A second American revolution will come and will not be peaceful. Trump
is leading a peaceful revolt.

Folks forget Americans are armed.

The American oligarchs are still in the “denial” phase.

They don’t understand that a Trump victory will actually be the best
possible result for them.

The alternatives are very dark for everyone.

Indeed, the purpose and the intent of the second amendment was EXACTLY
in case of this very situation.

Even I talk up a big story but I’ve got some injuries
under the belt, i’m not in good shape at 48, and many, though in great
shape i’m sure, are 60 plus.

Going against drones and jets and tanks and God knows what else?

The revolution saw no side with VERY advanced war machines and neither
did the civil war. It was gun vs. gun, mostly. Now, forget about it.
And the younger folk, half would vote for a socialist and 20 percent
would vote for a communist!!

It’s as simple as this. Trump wins or whatever’s left of the republic
is gone. I really hope i am not being a conspiracy nut, but I just
can’t fathom the powers that be letting Trump take the office. I could
be very wrong.

Either way, there’s gonna be violence after this election. Of that i’m
certain. Thank goodness the police and most national guard will be on
our side.

The reality is that gun sales have gone up bigtime the last 8 years
under Obama. That says something. The efforts to get Trump elected is
what I call a peaceful 2nd American revolution and I do hope it works
out . If Hillary gets in, sadly I will turn out to be right and you
wrong. History tends to repeat itself. First the soap box, then the
ballot box, and as a very last resort, the bullet box.

...members of the military these types will be fighting. Strange how they forget that the military gets to vote, too, and last time they voted in Obama. This time, they'll vote in Hillary. I wonder if they'd have this much bluster if they really understood they'd be going up against real soldiers rather than these strawmen metrosexuals.

Have they read their beloved amendment? There is nothing well regulated about them at all. They clearly state they want no regulation. NRA says no regulation. All the while espousing "2nd amendment,, 2nd amendment!

These doomsday peppers have been stock piling food and guns forever. They are just waiting for a reason to unleash their arsenal. Trump is serving it up on a platter. Trump reminds me of Charlie Manson. Sets the soldiers out to create his race war "Helter Skelter" (my apologies to Paul McCartney). Meanwhile Charlie, er, I mean Trump sits back and watches.

gladly surrender their AR-15s and raise the white flag with their out of shape, exhausted, overweight bodies and beg to get back to their couches and computer screens.

It won't work like that though. They'll be taken to jail, those that survive, and will be up on sedition and treason charges.

Good luck with that, Christian soldiers.
