The problem with this theory is the boil will fight back. This plan is always harder to execute than they think. Just look at Libya, Egypt, Syria, and anyone of a dozen Latin American revolutions. To believe we will just recoil from violence and allow their boot to remain on our neck is fantasy thinking.

It never runs as easy as they think. They have much less support then they think and we have much more ammo than they think.

Unfortunately, I think too many share your view. You, along with many, appear to speak to something of a declared action where everybody understands and can “see” battle lines. I don't think this will be the case. I think you will see asymmetric actions by the Left. I think you will see sporadic, seemingly isolated, acts of violence that will increase in frequency and brutality, while at the same time there will be coordination. There will be targets, but all this will not be obvious, at least for a while.

All of this may occur while the majority of Americans seem to think these are isolated incidents the result of a general breakdown in society. And, then at some point the government will significantly ramp up their police actions. Most people will welcome this as a seeming means quelling the violence, but then it will be too late. The government will start taking “crisis” measure. Confiscating guns and curtailing personal liberties.

I don't even think the government will have to declare Martial Law as the corrupt MSM will do whatever is necessary to support the growing heavy-handed government while continuing to float or parrot the increasing virulent anti-Conservative rhetoric.

No need for Martial Law to be declared when everyone seemingly agrees to the government's actions, and those who don't agree with the governments growing action must be, according to the corrupt MSM, enemies of peace and order and therefore deserving of any outcome they face. Which may then lead to targeted violence from the Left which no one seems to mind too much because it was “justified”.

And this may go on until people are disarmed, suffering economically, and forced into submission.

(Wow, I'm even depressing myself now!)
