Texas official warns of Obama civil war
By Armand C. Hale
This is an news flash from a Lubbock County, Texas, judge he believes of the inevitable civil war he believes would follow President Obama's re-election.
"A Lubbock County, Texas, judge is asking for a tax increase to hire deputies for the inevitable civil war he believes would follow President Obama's re-election.
The way he puts it, Judge Tom Head wants to prepare for the "worst," which to him means "civil unrest, civil disobedience" and possible "civil war," according to a report from Fox 34 Lubbock
Judge Tom Head and Commissioner Mark Heinrich told the station this week that a 1.7 cent tax increase for the next fiscal year was necessary to prepare for many contingencies, including Obama's re-election. He also mentioned to the station that the county needs a pay increase is needed for the district attorney's office and more funds to pay for more sheriff's office deputies.
"He's going to try to hand over the sovereignty of the United States to the (United Nations), and what is going to happen when that happens?", Head asked the station during a Monday interview. "I'm thinking the worst. Civil unrest, civil disobedience, civil war maybe. And we're not just talking a few riots here and demonstrations, we're talking Lexington, Concord, take up arms and get rid of the guy."
Head also seems to fear the retaliation of such civil unrest.
"Now what's going to happen if we do that, if the public decides to do that?
He's going to send in U.N. troops. I don't want 'em in Lubbock County. OK.
So I'm going to stand in front of their armored personnel carrier and say 'you're not coming in here'.
"And the sheriff, I've already asked him, I said 'you gonna back me' he said, 'yeah, I'll back you'. Well, I don't want a bunch of rookies back there. I want trained, equipped, seasoned veteran officers to back me."
The station reports that the tax hike will provide an additional $832,433 coupled with $2 million in cuts to make the numbers work."
