A Democratic congressman from Long Island implied that Americans should grab weapons and oppose President Trump by force, if the commander-in-chief doesn’t follow the Constitution. Rep. Tom Suozzi made the remark to constituents at a town hall last week, saying that folks opposed to Trump might resort to the “Second Amendment.” “It’s really a matter of putting public pressure on the president,” Suozzi said in a newly released video of the March 12 talk in Huntington. “This is where the Second Amendment comes in, quite frankly, because you know, what if the president was to ignore the courts? What would you do? What would we do?” A listener then blurts out, “What’s the Second Amendment?” The left-leaning Democrat says, “The Second Amendment is the right to bear arms.” The spectators laughed — some nervously. Republicans were not amused. “This video is incredibly disturbing. It’s surreal to watch a sitting member of Congress suggest that his constituents should take up arms against the president of the United States,” said National Republican Campaign Committee spokesman Chris Martin. Suozzi political adviser Kim Devlin denied the pol was “advocating for an armed insurrection.”
A felony violation of 18 U.S. Code § 2383 - Rebellion or insurrection, conviction of which bars you from holding any office within the United States and can get you 10 years in a Federal Hotel.

Holy shit, this man will get a medal by the next sane President.
He has successfully triggered the absolute FUCK out of racist wingnuts clinging to their little popguns.
Guess you cucks don't like it when normal people use the same fucking threat you psychos used on Obama for eight fucking years?
Consider yourself lucky the Big Blue Wave is going to result in impeachment, conviction, and jail time for this entire administration.
If we knew Dems wouldn't have full control of government in 2019 again, we'd damn well be exercising our Second Amendment rights. But it's only a year so we can wait.
We know the military will mutiny if the orange fuck tries to blow up the planet in the meantime.
Reminder that the more we win in the political sphere, the more unbalanced and desperate liberals will become. We want to be the face of order and peace while liberals look like crazed violent agitators. That is how we win.
>what if the president was to ignore the courts? Wouldn't be the first time. But then again some of the courts are rogue with activist judges trying to legislate from the bench.

Maybe people just prefer things to not be a jumbled clustefuck.
Yup, read this earlier. I assume he's reaching out to his "base", which just makes this even funnier because most Democrat voters aren't even sure which end of the"Scary bang-stick" to point at the Target.
Anyone that would take up arms against their country would first take up arms against Democrats who have been trying to confiscate their arms forever. Good try, Suozzi. Almost edgy.

I know man. "What's the second amendment?" Top fucking kek.
Whelp, this leftist anti-American socialist has not stepped right over the line of treason. Time to string him up.
Like we should to all the anti-American leftists

Well let's be consistent. if ANY president ignores a RATIONAL, HARD EVIDENCE BASED, COURT ORDER, yes, the next step is to refresh the tree of liberty. That's what the 2a is for. of course, there's no reason or evidence to impeach Trump, and if an IRRATIONAL POLITICAL non-EVIDENCE BASED order is given by the courts, the it's the same. The 2a is gonna be used to destroy the illegitimate court order, and the court itself.
Jackson Price
you retards are now saying we should should just let a corrupt president ignore the courts and do nothing about it after months of saying the second amendment is for standing up to a government that doesnt represent their interests. this guy is totally right, arm yourself, thats what 2a is for
Bentley Walker
Corrupt how?
Cooper Price
>take up arms and demand we take your arms i.. uhh.. i...
Carter Wright
you retards have forgotten about innocent until proven guilty. Stupid leftist fucks.
>if the commander-in-chief doesn’t follow the Constitution. So if Trump unconstitutionally bans 20 year old adults from purchasing firearms we can count on Democrats to arm themselves and join the fight?
I went to college with his daughter in NYC. She got blackout drunk consistently, always wondered why someone didn't use that type of behavior against him

Dayum chekd those digs. I know several people that notified secret service, and the video was posted to Twitter with several tagging them, as well. This fucker is gonna fry. Just waiting on his Hillary defense: “I DONT KNOW HOW I WAS SO MISUNDERSTOOD!!”
Rand Paul literally said the same thing a few years ago.
Josiah Anderson
There is nothing wrong with taking away the guns ONCE WE ARE IN POWER

>what if the president was to ignore the courts? Like based Jackson? I'd do nothing but cheer for the Republic's death. The experiment failed, now it's time for the Empire
>tfw Democrats get so stupid and give into the progun lobby to try and arm their supporters by repealing gun laws >some non Neocon republicans exploit this and pass shit that repeals all state level gun control and federal NFA laws with the help of stupid democraps. >democrats try to arm their gangs and urbanites but both turn out to be poor soldiers and these pathetic "antifa militas" get stomped hard by the far right along with Trump loyalists (since Trump will go full retard and toe the NRA party line). >CA and NYC become federal enclaves that no longer vote.
