Expert Warns US Is On The Brink Of “Mass Civil Unrest”

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News,

An expert with the United States Studies Centre says that America is on the brink of “mass civil unrest” that threatens to emerge out of anti-lockdown protests now taking place nationwide.

Demonstrations against coronavirus stay-at-home measures have exploded across the country over the last week after President Trump encouraged them on social media. The National Guard has been called out in some areas to deal with potential disorder.

Speaking to Sky News Australia, James Brown, a former Australian Army officer who commanded a cavalry troop in southern Iraq, said that the very specific mentality of Americans made them much more likely to rebel against lockdown measures compared to citizens of other countries.

“There is that part of the US political psyche that takes rights to a complete extreme,” said Brown, adding that “mass civil unrest” is an ever present possibility due to Americans sharing a “deep independent streak that believes the government is a nice-to-have not a must-have.”

The host of the show opined that if “anarchy” were to break out across the United States, “the government can’t bring the people to heel” due to the Second Amendment.

Brown said he had friends on Capitol Hill who were very worried about mass social disorder and a “gun battle on the streets.”

Brown said that so long as most people believed that states were making progress on battling coronavirus, they would accept and adhere to lockdown laws for the time being.

“But people will chafe, that idea of individual freedom and liberty is much stronger in the U.S. than it is Australia,” he added.

These two Leftists Aussie asswhores think all the demonstrators on the steps of various US state capitols have high powered automatic weapons and are all extremists.

I did not find any part of this “news” production to be between a news-slime and an “expert”.

Claiming that the interviewee was an Aussie military troop commander does not make him an expert in American firearms, American political history or in anything else American…

Total Bull-schumer and a worthless waste of time.

Don’t know why Wes sent this out except as an example of how clueless the Libtards are….

If these libtatrds want to see mass civil unrest just wait until hyperinflation hits next year and the EBT cards won’t buy squat…. That’s when the low impulse control folks will start killing and burning.

That’s when the Schumer Hits The Fan

Also think about ‘deflation.’
All of this fits together so well. We live in amazing times.
