I think you give them to much credit. The demo are trying to stir up a violent revolt. The proof is in the words of the demo themselves
The law of unintended consequences. Snip The people who are fighting for baby's rights will flood the Courts with challenges that will eventually make thei Supreme Court.
Assuming Kavanaugh is confirmed — and it looks like a done deal if his hearings go well — suddenly Roberts will be presiding over cert votes in which his quartet of more like-minded colleagues are for hitting the gas, whether or not he wants to tap the brakes. Cases involving religious freedom and especially cases of regulatory “takings” without compensation can go from near zero to 70 in a hurry.
And this is why justice is supposed to be blind. Yep, convince others to change the laws if you don't like them and stay true to your oath of office to uphold. Cold, but take emotion out of it.
I was taking pre-law in college and could not live with the idea of defending some one that was clearly guilty like a mass murderer.

I don't believe the average dem voter has any such intent but, that doesn't mean their leadership isn't willing to do anything to get back into power.

I agree that the average person does not want the violence. BUT the demos speaking out for them are trying to get the masses to rise up against Trump. I believe that the majority of Americans do not give a rats @$$ about politics, BUT enough hot heads do buy into it to get stupid and cause problems. All the talking heads need to do is reachave those few.

Those wishing for such an event need to do some basic math. There are huge numbers of WELL armed conservatives willing to defend our Constitution. They are way out numbered. IOWs, don't start something ya can't finish......

I assume you mean shadeballs. Speaking of which, I just read an article this morning backing claims that this was a very bad idea. I mean seriously, how can spending $33,000,000 on 94,000,000 polypropylene black balls seem like a bad idea? *Sarcasm*
