From http://www.kentucky.com/news/politics-government/election/article110730522.html :

"Joe Walsh, a former congressman from Illinois, tweeted Wednesday that he would be 'grabbing my musket' if Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump loses the Nov. 8 election.'

. . .

"Walsh told Yahoo News that he was 'talking metaphorically' and was not advocating violence.'

“ 'We’re going to protest. We’re going to boycott. We’re going to picket. We’re going to march on Washington. We’re going to stop paying taxes. We’re going to practice civil disobedience. Whatever it takes,' Walsh told Yahoo."
