The Washington Independent reports that the Ohio Militia is planning "a peaceful demonstration of at least a million militia men marching on Washington" for the July 4 weekend.
"No shooting, no one gets hurt. Just a demonstration. The only difference from any typical demonstration is we will all be armed."
Just imagine how this plays out on national TV. Of course the city of Washington denies them a permit or places a "no weapons" restriction on a permit, which only serves to stir them up and draws that many more into the "armed march" on Washington. Has hundreds of thousands of armed militia men descend on the National Mall,tens of thousands of families cancel vacations and flee the nation's capital. And all the while Republican leaders in Congress, Rush, Newt -- the whole gang -- appear endlessly on national TV speaking with impassioned sympathy for the armed militia holding Washington DC hostage. As the occasional shot is sent in the direction of the White House or Capital, Rep Mike Pence explains that this is nothing more than an understandable expression of frustration at Democrats who have betrayed the nation,...
The Ohio Militia is calling the bluff of the GOP and NRA in ways I never imagined possible. This could be a lot of fun, and I guess I should add, scary as hell.
