Jim Goad: “Enter the new Right Wing Death Squads…”

February 13, 2017 By Kathy Shaidle

…which don’t truly exist as anything more than an idea at this point.

Rather than engaging in active political violence, right now the Right Wing Death Squad meme exists in the form of a clothing line, a Facebook group, a Twitter hashtag (#rwds), a musical subgenre, and some animated videos. Its most enduring image is of a communist being tossed from a helicopter, Pinochet-style. (…)

As Pat Buchanan, Peter Brimelow, and many others have noted, this country seems to be teetering dangerously close to a civil war. But since much of the left shows no signs of calming down and seems to truly desire a violent civil war, one glaring statistic does not bode well for them—gun ownership. Roughly twice as many Republicans say they own guns compared to Democrats, and lawdy knows a healthy quotient of those Trump-supporting “Nazis” own several guns.
