Militia groups prepare for armed revolt if Clinton wins

Quote:Down a Georgia country road, camouflaged members of the Three Percent Security Force have mobilized for rifle practice, hand-to-hand combat training — and an impromptu campaign rally for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.


“How many people are voting for Trump? Ooh-rah!” asks Chris Hill, a paralegal who goes by the code name “Bloodagent.”
“Ooh-rah!” shout a dozen militia members in response, as morning sunlight sifted through the trees last weekend.

As the most divisive presidential election in recent memory nears its conclusion, some armed militia groups are preparing for the possibility of a stolen election on Nov. 8 and civil unrest in the days following a victory by Democrat Hillary Clinton.

They say they won’t fire the first shot, but they’re not planning to leave their guns at home, either.

Trump’s populist campaign has energized militia members like Hill, who admire the Republican mogul’s promise to deport illegal immigrants, stop Muslims from entering the country and build a wall along the Mexico border.


Trump has repeatedly warned that the election may be “rigged,” and has said he may not respect the results if he does not win. At least one paramilitary group, the Oath Keepers, has called on members to monitor voting sites for signs of fraud

Armed paramilitary groups first gained prominence in the early 1990s, fueled by confrontations in Ruby Ridge, Idaho and Waco, Texas, culminating in a militia sympathizer’s 1995 bombing of a federal office building in Oklahoma City that killed 168 people.

Their numbers dwindled following that attack but have spiked in recent years, driven by fears that President Barack Obama will threaten gun ownership and erode the power of local government. The Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks extremist groups, estimates there were 276 active militias last year, up from 42 in 2008.

In recent years, armed groups have confronted federal authorities in a series of land-use disputes in the western United States. Federal officials fear more clashes could come after seven militants were acquitted on conspiracy charges for occupying a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon.

Many fear Clinton would push the county further to the left.

“This is the last chance to save America from ruin,” Hill said. “I’m surprised I was able to survive or suffer through eight years of Obama without literally going insane, but Hillary is going to be more of the same.”

Extremist groups emboldened
The Oath Keepers, a prominent anti-government force that sent gun-toting members to the 2014 race riots in Ferguson, Missouri, called on members last week to monitor voting sites on election day for any signs of fraud.

An hour south of Atlanta, the Three Percent Security Force started the day around the campfire, taking turns shooting automatic pistols and rifles at a makeshift target range. They whooped with approval when blasts from one member’s high-powered rifle knocked down a tree.

The group operates independently, but is affiliated with a national armed movement that calls for members to defend individual rights in the face of what they see as an overreaching federal government. The movement draws its name from the notion that no more than 3 percent of the American population fought in the Revolutionary War against Britain.

Amid the war games, Hill weighed plans for a possible armed march on Washington if Clinton wins.


He said he doesn’t want his members leading the way, but they will defend the protesters if need be. His group will not hesitate to act if a President Clinton tries to disarm gun owners, he said.

“I will be there to render assistance to my fellow countrymen, and prevent them from being disarmed, and I will fight and I will kill and I may die in the process,” said Hill, who founded the militia several years ago.

Trump’s candidacy has emboldened extremist groups to speak more openly about challenging the rule of law, said Ryan Lenz, a researcher at the Southern Poverty Law Center.

“Prior to this campaign season, these ideas were relegated to sort of the political fringe of the American political landscape,” he said.
“Now these ideas are legitimized.”

Over the past week, some prominent Trump supporters have hinted at violence.

“If Trump loses, I’m grabbing my musket,” former Illinois Representative Joe Walsh wrote on Twitter last week. Conservative commentator Wayne Root fantasized about Clinton’s death while speaking at a Trump rally in Las Vegas on Sunday.

Back in Georgia, the Three Percent Security Force wrapped up rifle practice in the midday sun. They then headed further into the trees to tackle an obstacle course with loaded pistols at their sides, ready for whatever may come.

“We’ve building up for this, just like the Marines,” he said. “We are going to really train harder and try to increase our operational capabilities in the event that this is the day that we hoped would never come.”

One thing I'd like to highlight out of that madness:

Someone is overcompensating.

They usually do, when playing dress-up.

There are a lot of people who would join the National Guard to protect against radicalization if needed as well.

Edited for clarity.

Talk about a first month test for Clinton...dealing with waves of domestic terrorists! This should be interesting.

Or more likely nothing will happen. I would say the imaginary revolution if Clinton wins of 2016 is right next to the imaginary bus that is going to take all the liberals to Canada if Trump wins.

But what is the line of thinking here? They storm washington and shoot Hillary Clinton and then what? Trump is president? Or are we just looking to erase the concept of a democratic election from our government?

Small minded children playing guns is all it is. At least I hope. Can't underestimate stupid.

They didn't get too crazy when a black man won. So I'm less concerned that a white woman would push them over the top. Of course with the ******* Trump he might be on all the news channels like he already is and be calling for violence after he gets embarrassed. No reason to believe he will stop saying it is rigged.

This is crazy. Those militias will stand no chance against the UN's black, helicopter gunships.

It's not really a code name if you give them your real name. I'm lookin' at you, Chris Hill. Because, inexplicably, I was somehow able to break your code and ascertain your true identity.

The fun thing about armed militias - they don't have Apache Helicopters. The US Military does. It'd be a real quick revolt.

I've been married to 3 white woman in my past. Each one took 1/2 of everything I had. This one scares me more then all 3 combined, and I ain't even boning her (thank God).

What scares you so much about Hillary?  what do you think she will do that will be so bad for you?

Larger government, increased handouts, the continuation of Obama care, the extinction of the middle class, increased taxes, doubling healthcare costs, increased pork to slide bills by the American people and the degradation of the United States.

Excluding the strikethrough there, you've just described every president since FDR. On both sides. Clinton II is no scarier than Trump, Bush the Sequel, Obama, Bush the First, Clinton I, Reagan, Nixon, Carter, etc. Although, the funny part is, the strikethrough was originally proposed by conservatives in the 90s.

Geez, I can't believe the 3rd one even bothered to marry you after the first 2 cleaned you out!  Dumb broad!

I dislike both candidates. I actually dislike the parties. I think this election, I'm voting against a candidate instead of for one if that makes sense?

That pretty much seems like what everyone I've even heard mention politics in the past year is doing. I'm voting for a third party candidate that I actually *GASP* like, so pretty much everyone is preemptively blaming me for helping (THE ONE IM NOT VOTING FOR WHO IS CLEARLY GOING TO END THE WORLD) win. It's all my fault.

totally.

the last federal level candidate I liked at all was bush the sequel. I thought "yeah, he's a spoiled millionaire, but at least a recovering drug addict will get what it's like for some normal people." Except he was an idiot who expanded government faster than a coked out FDR. That pretty much got me interested in third parties.
