Wargaming the opening blows of civil war in Connecticut.

Connecticut is the line in the sand. Not the bull$!×t lines Obama draws with our enemies (not his enemies). The canary in the cave. Connecticut is the dry run. If the government moves to disarm these citizens then we should all be well aware what is coming.

“our enemies”

referring to foreign or domestic?

One analogy would be when the Federal Government decided to let forest fires burn naturally for the health of the forest. But for too many years they prevented logging with too much overgrowth and fuel present from years of putting fires out for decades. Than after a fire started and they let it burn under controlled conditions a big wind would show up and all hell would break lose out of control and Yellow Stone nearly burned down and later Yosemite and the El Portal fire charred hundreds of thousands of acres. When the educated idiots in the Government think they have things under their total control they make dumb decisions. They are again making a huge miscalculation.

There are millions of armed citizens who have drawn a line in the sand when it comes to any form of regulation and confiscation that goes too far, and especially semi-auto weapons involvement. They come from all walks of life and social status and in and out of the very government itself including law enforcement and the military. When those in power begin any move toward confiscation at any level they will start a fire thinking they can control that outcome no matter how small that fire starts. When the fire grows and spreads and any type of federal move or martial law is imposed to apply more control there will be others in power that will get involved to put a stop to it, if the courts do not step in within time to put a halt on it. If the courts fails as they are already, and if others in power do not put a stop to the tyranny unleashed by unconstitutional actions, than an American revolutionary wind will become a conflagration. Some are calling this another civil war, and other grievances against those in power will occur as law and order breaks down, but eventually the fire will burn itself out and some form of order will be restored. Northern Ireland, Iraq, Afghanistan, include examples of the morning after. The country and the people are still there and there are only the dead and the living. No administration can survive and take away the second amendment in America. This does not mean they will not attempt something stupid and believe they could succeed.

In San Francisco you will not hear much on New Year’s Eve at midnight. In most California Central Valley towns at the same time you might think a war has just been unleashed as guns of every type and description send multiple thousands of rounds into the night in celebration. Imagine the same sound being fired in anger. If you think these gun owners will all sit on the fence and do nothing you would be wrong. Now all that gun fire on New Year’s Eve is illegal discharges in city limits, but still goes on decade after decade and now there are more guns than ever. Making semi-auto rifles of any type illegal is unconstitutional and attempting to follow up on any scale by confiscating weapons at any level will not occur in a vacuum and will start a fire where one should never be lit around too much combustible material.

In a perfect world, all 100,000 of the newly-created felons should turn themselves in at the same time and demand a trial by jury. The judicial system would collapse and many of the cases would be dismissed under the speedy trial rules in CT, which require the case to go to trial within 12 months of the date of arrest (8 months is the defendant is incarcerated).

cops would pinch a registration scofflaw at the grocery store, at work, on the road . . .

That's my feeling. All they have to do is quietly issue warrants on all the "law-breakers". Then have the cops run tags on every highway and pull 'em over. How many are going to fight, especially if their family is with them?

It might take 'em a while, but the'd be in no hurry to anger people, and eventually they'll get all those who drive. What's left can then be sopped up in routine "raids against felons".

A revolt will not begin today or even tomorrow, but down the road it will. This nation is sadly very, very much divided.

And I stand by this prediction, remember this saying “when push comes to sholve”.

[Vermont Lt]

Lots of big wind in CT.

They will come for the guns. And they will get them.

Kneel before Zod....
