You say you want a Revolution? (count me out)

I found what has to be one of the more interesting (by which I mean sickening) excuses for "hatriotism" I've seen in a while. Presented with my own commentary.

Example:

"Local law enforcement and the state’s National Guards would be providing humanitarian assistance only, and their orders would include not firing on armed Americans and using their own firearms only to defend women and children, having already experienced losses themselves for interfering with summary executions of male Obama supporters.

Because, after all, Enemies of the State need to be executed. And what about female Obama supporters?? Do they get sent to the harems of some patriotic comissar after the Revolution??

University professors would now be targeted for killing,

Because nothing is more evil and anti-American than a good education? Seriously dude, did a professor run over your puppy or something?

Wow. How Khmer Rouge of them."

As I recall, Mao Tse Tung had a problem with intelligent, educated people too. (Forgive me if his name is now spelled differently; I don't know if it's been altered, let alone what it might have been altered to. Peking may now be Beijing, but Mao is still Mao to me.)

There are two primary groups that seem to be hated just about everywhere in the world: people who are wealthier than we are, and people who are better educated than we are. Somehow, taking advantage of their abilities is considered snobbish and "putting on airs" by those who lack those abilities. [sigh]

And in both cases, they seem to be hated the most by those who need it the most.
