Ted Nugent Suggests He's Ready For Armed Revolt Against 'Evil, Dangerous' Obama

Rocker-turned-gun rights provocateur Ted Nugent is willing to say just about anything to attack President Barack Obama and his administration for what he believes is an imminent effort by the government to snatch up guns. During a recent interview, Nugent again raised the bar, invoking a Revolutionary war milestone to suggest that he and his "buddies" were prepared to fight such an effort at all costs.

"I'm part of a very great experiment in self-government where we the people determine our own pursuit of happiness and our own individual freedom and liberty, not to be confused with the Barack Obama gang who believes in we the sheeple and actually is attempting to re-implement the tyranny of King George that we escaped from in 1776," Nugent said in a recent interview with Guns.com at the NBC-sponsored Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor Trade Show. "And if you want another Concord Bridge, I got some buddies."

Nugent appears to be referring to the beginning of the Revolutionary war, when colonial and British troops assembled at the North Bridge in Concord, Mass. in 1775 broke a standoff when one soldier opened fire. While it's still unclear which side fired the first shot, it was later immortalized by poet Ralph Waldo Emerson, who suggested that "the shot heard 'round the world" was fired by an American.

I wonder who's going to be changing his shitty diapers while he's fighting this revolution. He's a hypocrite.

We certainly don't claim him here in Motown as one of our own. We only claim the good ones, like Aretha and Anita Baker.

guns taken away- permanently. Not because they are a serious threat to "the government", but more likely a threat to their own neighbors, their families, and their local police.

Look at it this way- if some yahoo makes public his desire to shoot up a school or an office, he's going to (deservedly) attract the attention of law enforcement.

He's a blowhard and we all know it. I doubt he's a serious threat but I'm hoping he's being monitored still.

But the ABSOLUTE WORST THING TO DO WOULD BE TO ARREST HIM. That would give him so much free publicity and he could say the arrest was to try to silence him in his exercise of his rights. It would be a propaganda jackpot for him.

Until, and unless, he actually strikes up a brigade actively headed for a federal facility then IGNORE HIM.

during the Viet-Nam War, he backed out, just like his Republican buddies like Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld.

Ted Nugent is a piece of shit.

"Second rate" is being very generous to Ted. I'd call him a fourth-rate guitarist and rock "star." As a warrior, somewhere below even that.
