Sure, it's legal.

And exercising it in the manner you are suggesting will bring about a category five shitstorm of such magnitude that this country has not seen since 1865.

If you think this is a possibility I need to get out my reloading tools and supplies and crank out as much spare ammo as I can between now and Dec. 19th.

Well, let's see what Trump has to say about it. He's so mellow now, he may just say "Don't even think about rebellion, we all have to follow the constitution."

When was the last time you saw conservatives out marching and burning shit up ?

Did they do it when Obama was elected ? No.

Have you ever seen them do it ? No.

They are usually content to ride around in trucks gunned up, intimidating folks, burning crosses in yards and the occasional church when they aren't putting reactionary dick heads into positions of power.

Intellectually it is beyond his capability. Right now he is tweeting about how all the protestors are being paid by the media.

More likely that they have to get up and go to work in the morning.

Intimidation is night work, and a note from the white citizens counsel for your boss would usually let you keep your low paying union free job.

If he's so dumb, then what are the other 20 candidates that he beat out for the Presidency? Trump is dumb all right. Dumb like a Fox.

Well that's it. He'll never get elected now.
