James Woods in Middle of Election Mayhem: Look to the 2nd Amendment

By Kipp Jones

Published November 6, 2020 at 7:42am

Hollywood actor and conservative social media commentator James Woods reminded his followers of the power of the Second Amendment in a Twitter post on Thursday.

Woods, a favorite of many conservatives online, perfectly encapsulated the power of the right to bear arms amid the country’s latest crisis, which this time involves the still-contested presidential election.

That power goes beyond muzzle velocity and caliber size.

It’s deeply psychological and personal.

The Second Amendment is also uniquely American.

As a country, since March, we’ve endured a pandemic, a government overreaction to that pandemic, riots, nationwide civil unrest and now an election which a great many voters worry could be stolen from them.

These are trying times, but life is sometimes difficult.

Luckily, we can cling to our faith and our guns.

While faith is the most powerful tool we have amid this current psychological nightmare with regard to the election, it’s important to remember that we have a right to protect ourselves.

Woods said it best.

The actor tweeted, “Watching the riots and mayhem, all funded by the same people stealing the election, I am comforted by one sure and shining light: the wisdom of the Founding Fathers.”

He added, “Can you imagine enduring this nightmare without the reassuring power of the Second Amendment?”

It is difficult to imagine the country’s hell of a year without the firearms many of us carry, collect and rely on for home protection, sport or general leverage against potential tyranny.

The fact that so many Americans have purchased guns this year in record numbers tells us how important the Second Amendment is to our collective psyche.

Gun ownership is ingrained in American culture.

You could even argue guns are part of the system of checks and balances.

But Woods wasn’t making a call to arms.

He was celebrating.

Firearms are a last resort which many global citizens do not have, and that’s difficult to fathom.

A year which has seen individual liberties eroded by government tyranny in areas such as Michigan, California, New Jersey and Pennsylvania saw Americans buy so many guns, the FBI couldn’t keep up with background checks at times.

The National Instant Criminal Background Check System background check system froze up on me twice this year while I was purchasing guns.

It was a minor inconvenience, sure. But it was nice to know there were so many other people out exercising their rights that it hit the system like a DDoS attack.

The system crashed because people wanted to arm themselves so they wouldn’t be left defenseless, no matter the potential threat.

Many of us pray to God we continue to only need our guns to use at ranges and to show off in our collections.

But when the world feels a bit topsy-turvy, it’s comforting to know so many of us are not only armed, but we are essentially encouraged to own guns by our country’s founding documents.

The psychotic actions of the BLM and Antifa movements are very small compared to a US GOVT attack that could be in store for the conservative people in America especially if door to door testing, vaccines and masks are mandated.

Conservatives have witnessed the censorship of their opinions and facts related to how the nation is being governed by the BIG TECH companies that are wielding immense power over free speech. The BIG TECH companies have banned and shadow banned conservative blogs so flagrantly that it became obvious years ago and nothing has been done to curb their bias.

When I see so many young people being coaxed into communism by people they have been instructed to respect and trust like educators and news media I get a sick feeling in my stomach. Trump has kept these young people out of war for their sake and it appears they do not realize it.

The problem is that both political parties have done such a shitty job without much concern for the average person trying to raise a family and in the process have lowered the standards of government behavior towards the citizens. The country and its taxpayers have been denied Constitutional freedoms and rights through the constant manipulation of regulations and false claims of emergency powers for decades to such an extent that some people wonder if the whole scheme of government isn't simply a stage play. The judges are expected to rule fairly by the citizens while the politicians and bureaucrats expect the judges to rule according to party bias and in favor of what the government calls "compelling governmental interest."

This election cycle has demonstrated a huge schism dividing the country that is driving a wedge between citizens when in many ways citizens on both sides have many of the same complaints. The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT has so enlarged its power and authority it has eliminated the ability of the citizens to simply move to another State that is more aligned with the citizen's beliefs.

This past 4 years made political bias in the media and social media much clearer to the silent majority to the degree that normally quiet people going about their lives peacefully despite socialist policies that allow for illegal migrants special treatment at taxpayer expense, that take their jobs that haven't already been outsourced, and a callous attitude of a government that just doesn't want to hear from those people paying their salaries. Trump was doing everything within his power to rein in the overreach of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT that became outrageous under 8 years of Obama. The silent majority though armed to the teeth did not go about the country shooting cops, burning down cities, or go rampaging through minority neighborhoods with their 50 Cal. weapons making a slaughter of innocent folks caught in the middle of government malfeasance.

Even now, after this shit show of an election fraught with fraud that has brought out some of the conservatives to protest the fraud, we have yet to see the volume of these folks that are truly pissed off and with good reason. How can these people be tasked with paying for so much that violates their beliefs and conscience's while their own families are unable to pay for their own family needs.

The real kicker is watching an out of control impatient bunch of ingrates that have no skin in the game, have never paid taxes, want everything free or paid for by "other people" go about the country and destroy businesses and property of the very people they expect to pay all of the bills. This behavior is promoted by the left politicos and media when in fact it doesn't even exist in the real world but is instead a red herring used by them to cause friction where it doesn't truly exist. Sure, there is some racism among all races. As long as I've been alive there have been jokes and slurs that all races participate in a giggle about other races behaviors. SO FUCKING WHAT ???

I want to use my own family as an example of the current racial condition of the country. My grand kids live in Arizona and are entering college this year. Their friends are of every race under the sun and a snap shot of the young people around the swimming pool attending the event (birthday party) looks like a UNITED NATIONS gathering. These same youth have been friends throughout 12 years attending the same school, playing sports together and far more frequently than I ever experienced spend the weekends at each others houses having sleep overs. The racist hype is mostly conducted by lefties in politics and media. As a matter of fact the minorities at my grand kid's (twins) party were by far the majority ! The racist claims being thrown about are ridiculous.

I am pretty certain that the silent majority are beginning to see the long game of the communists / socialists / elitists /corporations, and those fighting for a free lunch at the expense of the working class. They have had more than enough of being ordered around by a bunch of criminals and anti-american freaks. The truth is they see the endgame playing out right before their eyes where people defending their homes from rioters are prosecuted while the rioters are applauded. Still, these people remain polite and civil while the freeloader rioters and looters scream FUCK TRUMP, BURN BABY BURN, FUCK AMERICA, and even beat up on old folks that cannot return fire. The disgust with their fate is so high today after this criminal attack of the election process is SCREAMING THAT THE JIG IS UP, WE WILL TAKE OVER WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, SO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND WORK HARDER BECAUSE WE HAVE NEEDS AND YOU WILL PAY ! Well, BLM and Antifa can gather up all of their skateboards, frozen bottles of water, and attack the well armed silent majority that have been stocking up on weapons and provisions for 30 or more years, that own SEMI TRUCKS, TRACTORS, HUGE 4X4 TRUCKS, and a whole lot of fire power, where they will get the spanking they so much deserve.

"And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. "
