The United States Is On The Precipice Of Widespread Civil Unrest

By Michael Snyder
SFO Muslim Ban Protest - Photo by Quinn NortonIt doesn’t take much of a trigger to push extremely large crowds of very angry protesters into committing acts of rioting and violence.  And rioting and violence can ultimately lead to widespread civil unrest and calls for “revolution”.  The election of Donald Trump was perhaps the single most galvanizing moment for the radical left in modern American history, and we have already seen that a single move by Trump can literally cause protests to erupt from coast to coast within 48 hours.  On Friday, Trump signed an executive order that banned refugees from Syria indefinitely and that placed a 90 day ban on travel to the United States for citizens of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.  Within hours, protesters began to storm major airports, and by Sunday very large crowds were taking to the streets all over the country

From Seattle to Newark, Houston to Boston, hundreds jammed airport terminals — lawyers, immigration advocates, ordinary citizens compelled to the front lines, many refusing to leave until those who had been detained by U.S. Customs had been freed or had obtained legal counsel.
On Sunday, the movement caught fire and demonstrations and rallies erupted in communities across the U.S. from city halls to airports to parks. In the nation’s capital, the site of the march that drew a crushing 500,000 people Jan. 21, Pennsylvania Avenue was shut down Sunday as thousands trekked from the White House to the U.S. Capitol. An energized crowd stopped outside Trump’s showcase hotel along the avenue to shake fists and chant “shame.”

You can see some really good pictures of the protests going on around the nation right here.
As I was going through articles about these protests today, I remember one woman holding up a sign that said “Remove Trump By Any Means Necessary”.
It doesn’t take much imagination to figure out what she was suggesting.
Visions of violence are dancing in the heads of these very frustrated people, and they are being egged on by top members of Congress such as Chuck Schumer

‘These orders go against what America has always been about,’ Schumer told the crowd in Battery Park according to the New York Daily News. ‘The orders make us less humanitarian, less safe, less American and when it comes to making us less safe people forget this, that’s why so many of our military, intelligence, security, and law enforcement leaders are opposed to this order and all those like it.’
Chelsea Clinton, the daughter of Trump’s presidential rival, Hillary, tweeted a picture from the rally. It was captioned: ‘Yes. We will keep standing up for a country that matches our values and ideals for all. #NewYork #NoBanNoWall.’

On Sunday, President Trump attempted to clarify what his executive order was really about and make it clear that it was not a ban on all Muslims.  The following comes from CNN

President Donald Trump insisted Sunday his travel ban on certain Muslim-majority nations would protect the United States from terrorists, after a weekend of outrage and confusion over the move.
In an afternoon statement, Trump wrote the country would continue showing “compassion to those fleeing oppression.”

Unfortunately, polls show that somewhere around a third of the country greatly dislikes Trump, and those people are more than ready to believe that Trump is a racist bigot that hates all Muslims.
But the truth is that Trump does not hate any group of people.  His target is simply Islamic terror, and he is actually pro-immigration as long as it is legal immigration.
Let us not forget that his wife is a legal immigrant.
I know that Trump is quite eager to get things done, but putting out this executive order at this particular moment was definitely a case of poor timing.
We are a nation that is deeply, deeply divided, and now this latest controversy threatens to divide us even further.
When I was out earlier today, I saw a pro-Trump billboard that some business owner had put up that was urging liberals to quit their whining.
On the surface that may sound funny, but it definitely doesn’t do anything to bring us together.
If you give anger enough fuel, eventually it leads to violence.  I am certainly not suggesting that we should ever compromise on what we believe, but what I am suggesting is that there is a wise way to handle things and an unwise way to handle things.
Someday, widespread civil unrest is going to sweep across the United States and major American cities will burn.
My hope is that we can put this off for as long as possible.
In fact, I sincerely hope that this will not happen at all during the Trump/Pence era.
But you would have to be blind not to see the hate, anger and frustration that are all growing like cancer in the hearts of our young people.
This is a time for the peacemakers.  If there are any left in Washington, we need them to rise up now and try to bring healing before it is too late.

  1. The civil war will start in earnest in 2020, it takes time to build up to a break out. The trouble is the left will be crushed. The muslims and libtards that are in this country are going to be hit and hit hard by the white gun toting right middle class. So the old adage of be careful what you wish for is very true for the left libtards of Hollywood and American in general.

    • I always suspected that that was the end game for Obama and leftists. Hence, the open borders policy – bring in all the underworld elements form the Third World (terrorists, drug/crime cartels, etc), group them with armed funded minority groups like BLM and arm them vs “Whitey” (with cultural marxist indoctrinated “useful idiots” among Whitey). This is a communist takeover and the Never Trumpers are to blame instead of fighting to defeat this gradual threat.

  2. The Patriots have been prepared since the last Presidential cycle. I for one am ready.

  3. It isn’t so much that the people of the US are divided. A lot of this unrest is being provoked by George Soros. Soros instigated, among other atrocities, the Maidan coup in Kiev, which overthrew Viktor Yanukovich’s constitutional government of Ukraine. One of Soros’ tools was the false flag operation: CIA snipers, in cahoots with Soros and the US State Department, shot protesters in Maidan Square and blamed Yanukovich. We need to watch out for Soros instigated false flag operations.

    • The lies of the liberty leeches of the left…Assad gassing his people, weapons of mass destruction, Boston, Orlando, Sandy Hook, Columbine, and on an on the assault on freedom through false flag operations.

  4. Just as in school, church, mall shootings, they are happening in gun free zones. In a mob situation you bust a cap in the leader and the hot air comes out of the balloon. These cowards haven’t seen the retaliation the conservatives can bring. They are performers for social media right now, when TSHTF they will be hiding in their safe spaces.

  5. “If peaceful revolution is suppressed, then violent revolution is inevitable” JFK Trump appears to be the catalyst to trigger the second American revolution and it won’t be pretty. Pain and suffering is what accompanies the birth of a new nation. No one is exempt from the birthing pains. The Federal reserve must be abolished.

  6. My dad played the stock market for all of his adult life (he died in 2007, he was 86 years old) and he made a couple of million and later lost most of it, partly because he believed some of the so-called ‘experts’ predictions. He used to jokingly say: “If I was President I’d make a law that people who predict things would face a fine if their predictions didn’t pan out the way they said they would, and the amount of the fine would be based on the loss that was incurred by people who took their advice.” He would be grinning when he said it. But actually such a law wouldn’t be such a bad idea. It would certainly empty the internet of an enormous amount of bullshit.
    With that being said, Michael Snyder is another sensationalist like Alex Jones, The Young Turks, Gary Franchi (Next News Network), Bro. Nathanael, Ryan Dawson, and dozens of others who seek to exploit any negative situation they can find in order to make a video of it and/or write about it for their own aggrandizement. Most of them talk so much that it makes me wonder if when they reach old age that they’ll have to have jaw joint replacement surgery. :O) America would be a lot better off if these bigmouths would dry up and blow away.

  7. America has been indoctrinated by the Sun Tzu method implemented by the KGB (how to subdue your enemy without a war). Trump is the first anti- establishment President who has been the catalyst to draw out two camps which are firmly rooted in their positions. This will only end in continued violence until either Marshall Law or occupation will result. The radical left who are now causing this will be taken to Fema Camps where most will never be heard from again. Nothing will stop this now, it’s too late. When the radical left is so convinced that they are fighting for a cause they have become like terrorists who are willing to die for their cause. Many will. We will all lose. Pray for Donald Trump that God would give him wisdom and guidance. You can be prepared for what’s coming at ItsHisStory.com

  8. I for one am extremely glad at the pace he’s going and I hope he intensifies it further. Any hope to avoid some sort of “conflict” is a fools dream. It was written in stone decades ago when the entire political right gave in and gave up to the left and created a de facto single party pushing a marxist agenda. Time is no longer on our side and it hasn’t been for a long time, especially as we’re inching further to midnight.
    I’m sympathetic to people that still pretend or hold onto some sort of peaceful change in this country, but 15 years ago I already saw this as a fools errand. You have to try but at this point I think it’s time to put things into perspective. This isn’t a fight for just politics, culture, or even a single nation. This is a fight for humanity in general and the opposition must be destroyed. If the plague of liberalism ever flourishes again it’ll be far more destructive than it is now. You only get one chance. Rarely does life offer you another.
