JBT?

Jack-Booted Thugs ... refers to Nazi's of course, so I assume 'jack boots' were the high boots that were the 'rage' in Nazi Germany.

Perhaps one of our other members can clarify the origination of the term.

First used to describe the actions of someof our Federal LEO's by Congressman John Dingle (D) of Michigan. A fact forgotten by most of the rest of the Demos.

The Dems started the saying but now that the pro gunners use it they have forgotten where it came from and use it against us. Want to bet this was the orginal idea???????

Sometimes we are our worse nightmare and do more harm than good. Using this term has cost the Pro Gun movement and should never be used again.
 
I agree that it shouldn't be used- regardless of where it came from or who first said it, it makes us look bad in the general public's eyes.

JBT may be a politically incorrect buzzword but as has been noted previously, if the boot fits...

I personally don’t have a problem with this term. It does not apply to LE in general, only to the ones that have earned it.

Although it probably should not be used indiscriminately, it should be available for use in appropriate situations.

With all due respect, I vote to keep it as is.

At some point in the 1930's the brown shirt, National Socialist Democrats, added in the black shirts to the mix. They were elite enforcers.

By the time WWII was in full swing the Nazi's had convinced the civilians that Hans with the Black shirt, Black pants, & Black boots was a good faithful public servant doing his duty for the betterment of the planet. This is despite the silver skull fetish badges the SS wore.

American patriots have a duty to protect the planet from allowing the lessons of the mass coercion of Germany from being forgoten.

if it walks like a goose...

The whole Nazi coercion was based on fear,
They beat you almost to death, then you join & fight with them, against those guys over there.

America must resist using the dark side of the force. When it happens patriots must shine a light on the problem.
