Will O be calling in tens of thousands of UN troops to round up all of these weapons, or will he be using Homeland Security brownshirts?

Doesn’t need furriners.

5,000 regular troops could paralyze America. Just set them up at selected choke points on the Interstate highway system.

36 hours later, supermarket shelves would be empty.

24 hours after that, Tea Party people and just about everybody else would be peeing their pants and begging for mercy.

Just sayin.
If done right, it would take a lot less than most people realize.

You forget one thing: MOST Tea Party types don’t live “close-in”. We live out where food is GROWN. Many of us are preppers.

Block traffic to the cities. . . and primarily Lefties starve. . .

You’re thinking Strategy and Tactics. Which is a mistake. LOGISTICS is what wins wars, of whatever type. . .

One would hope that your “5,000 regular troops” will have the intestinal fortitude to uphold the oath they took when they enlisted.

If the Armed Forces, who have sworn an oath to the US Constitution cannot honor that oath, we are doomed!

Yeah, that worked so well in Iraq and Afghanistan < rolls eyes >

“24 hours after that, Tea Party people and just about everybody else would be peeing their pants and begging for mercy.”

Is that you or the whiskey writing that line?

Or do you simply not know many TEA party members?

5,000 troops from where? Crack Rangers or Seals? Not likely.

Combat hardened soldiers or Marines? Doubt it.

These American troops you envision shutting this country down all have families living in this country. Doubt they will want to endanger them, or do all of them get evacuated (become refugees) to “safe” political zones.

How will these roadblockers be protected? They will need resupply and an evac route, both real tough to do when their vehicle becomes inop. Sabotage is the number one enemy of occupying forces, no gunz needed. After the first several groups are found hiking “back to their lines” buck nekkid, their buddies will have little enthusiasm for taking their place.

(shrug)
That strategy would mainly hurt the people in the concentrated Democrat parasite nests ("cities"), so who cares? Out here, I have woods and deer and turkey and fish, and gardens and chickens and fruit trees, big territorial dogs and plenty of guns and ammo. I even have gas masks.

Anyway, how long would it take for the "troops" to give Ubanga the finger and just quit?

Done right, those 5,000 troops would not last 3 days.

The people who are the greatest threat to them already have food for months.

It would all depend on who controlled the information flow.

If you control the information flow, you do not need the 5,000 troops.

Gonna be hard for them to choke the system while they're ducking incoming rounds.
