There is not a doubt in my military mind that in America and England the flame of revolution burns bright.
In the words of Twisted Sister, we aren't gonna take it anymore.
In fact, here in Montana the revolution has already begun - last summer in Hamilton scores of heavily armed militia marched down the main street in a Patriotic display directed against our oppressive federal government.
Also, numerous sheriffs in Montana have been warned by Patriots not to allow federal official into their counties for any purpose other than to deliver the mail.
The Tea Party is the peaceful arm of The Second American Revolution with the focus on winning elections; however, in nearly every state in the Union, armed Patriot militias are either in existence, or being formed.
Who knows? After this winter of our discontent, the spring may bring sounds of civil war. If revolution does break out in America it will quickly spread to England.
In the words of one wag, "When America sneezes, England gets a cold."

LOL WUT? If you idiots try civil war you will just be shut down by the military anyway...you don't have enough people on your side.
And doesn't the twisted sister song go "we're not gonna take it," not "we aren't gonna take it?" I'm not a big twisted sister fan though so I could be wrong.
The revolution will be founded mostly on cliches it seems.
Seriously, you shouldn't need to drag in Twisted Sister just to say you're not putting up with something.
Quoting literature you've probably never read. Nice.
Also, when I think "revolution", I think Twisted Sister and Shakespeare.
...And occasionally, the Beatles .

So you'll take the benefits to your own little corner of the union but not the responsibilities you have to other states or the union as a whole. Why am I not surprised, you bunch of child-minded, gun-toting, would-be dictators?
Also, thanks in no small part to the utter saturation of western culture with mindless consumerism, the possibility of revolution in the UK or US has never seemed more remote to me; the church as an opiate of the masses, as observed by Marx, is nothing compared to their combined placation and distraction by a deluge of mass-produced junk, physical or informational, and the constant reiteration that consumption of said junk is all that matters in life.
I am pretty sure advocating revolution against the current regime puts you to the bad side of MOD. And as you may know, MOD is not known for being very polite. If you were to even attempt a revolution in Britain, you would get your ass kicked very hard.
So I guess your oppressive National Parks, which bring in millions of tourists and billions in tourist money to Montana are that oppressive right? And of course we all know how oppressive the BLM is right? After all somebody's got to manage the land you and your ancestors didn't want. And I guess your parents oppressive medicare and social security checks are just the tipping points for you guys. To hell with those speed limitless interstates in Montana, just more evidence of government oppression right?
Um, yeah, just as soon as they get done drinking a 12 pack of beer they'll get in their old rusty pickup and drive to Washington DC to "get that damn darkie" in the White House. When in reality they'll just sit around bitching & moaning about how terrible their lives are because they're a bunch of paranoid anti-government pro-gun redneck militia conspiracy theorists.
@jsonitsac :
Most of them think that the national parks were closed to the public so the U.N. could build secret bases to house their troops for when they get ready to take over. No, I'm not making this up. It's out there, along with the idea that those reflective stickers on the back of road signs are secret signals to the U.N. troops for when they take over, e.g. directions to the crematorium, etc.
Nah, he's been watching far too Faux News, which deliberately presented, in their news reports, to their U.S audience, the news footage of the first British student Protest/Riot,(which targeted the headquarters of the Conservative Party,one of the members of the current ruling Coalition government, at Mlllbank), against the imposition of the tripling of tuition fees, by said Government, as a Tea-party style revolt against "Large Government" & Higher "Stealth Taxes"...
@Anon
For them, Britain is as exotic as Papua New Guinea. They project that, if they can do it in America(they can´t), they´re going to do it somewhere else.
Nah. We're all too nice to revolt in England. Yeah, we have the occasional protest march... very rarely. But full-blown revolution? Not in a million years. If it were 1935 Germany we'd all be grumbling impotently into our newspapers rather than doing anything remotely productive. Perhaps that's what the Germans did, but I digress. The point is we're basically too shy, as a country, to have a revolution.
You idiot T-baggers hate EVERYONE...sure, you prefer white male christian, but you are willing to stab even THOSE types in the back to make profits.
With that said, hating everyone, makes it difficult to build up an army that would be more than just another Waco for that "civil war" you mention.
Yeah, about 250 dimwits showed up in Hamilton.
Typical militia action:
"A threat explicitly tied to militias occurred in November 1994, at a public hearing in Everett, Washington. Two men approached Ellen Gray, an Audubon Society activist. According to Gray, one of them, later identified as Darryl Lord, placed a hangman's noose on a nearby chair, saying, "This is a message for you."
Threatening lady bird-lovers. so brave.
"Also, numerous sheriffs in Montana have been warned by Patriots not to allow federal official into their counties for any purpose other than to deliver the mail."
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you actually go to school? I mean other than to deliver the mail? Did you notice that Montana is one of the United States?
P.S. I'd love to see the "armed, Patriotic militia" of Montana take on the U.S. armed services. Maybe you could use patroitic Tea Baggers as human shields.
Considering a score is just 20, how many scores were present? Hell, it's Montana, your strength in numbers is still going to be pretty paltry.
If those sheriffs waited more than three seconds before disposing of whatever warnings they were given, they aren't worthy of their jobs.
A revolution may be brewing (we aren't as mindless and spiritless as the rest of the world likes to tell themselves), but you're the sort of person who would be put against the wall for cowardice by the winning side.
Twisted Sister were more to the left.
You gotta give these teabaggers credit for their boldness though(even though they're batshit insane and retarded). What ever happened to the Radical Left of the 60s/70s?
Bitch. Moan. Beer.
Repeat.
I don't know why people like this think they need to revolt anyway. It's not like we don't have a really decent standard of living in both the United States and the U.K. And despite what these militia nuts think, we have a lot of freedoms compared to people in a lot of countries. We have freedom of speech (political expression) as well as freedom of religion. But tell them they need to pay taxes, and they get all crazy like you asked for their firstborn.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's not like they are living in Backwardsasfuckistan making 10 cents a week herding goats and having the government take 7 cents of that for taxes while censoring all radio, TV, and newspaper information and would censor the internet if they had it, and forcing people to practice whatever religion is predominant. If that were the case, then yes, I'd say a revolution is in order.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
