In 2008, Barack Obama announced his plan to build a massive “civilian national security force” here in America. It would be just as well funded as the US military.

So, let me get this right. The country is totally broke but Obama found enough money to recruit, arm, and train 120,000 more armed federal agents.

With Obama’s firing of top brass, I wonder if he and whoever is running him are attempting a counterweight to the US military.

Are they frightened of the battle hardened volunteer fighting force that is coming home to no jobs, no economic future, few opportunities, a reduced and shattered way of life and the statist imposition of draconian speech and social codes?

This is a long time coming. I think the federal force and diktats coming fast and furious are agreed in principle by both sides of the establishment, left and right.

“If not in legal actuality, at least in spirit.”

You have noticed that “The Law” is not applied equally?”

We are in very dangerous territory right now. Using the law to stiffle and punish dissent, e.g., IRS and the selective enforcement of financial crimes has tipped this country into the realm of fascism.

I found Boston absolutely frightening and soooooo wrong. You keep thousands of good citizens hostage...and at gunpoint...which set the condition for the real bad guy to skip through the yards. Stupid...

Then you shoot 200 rounds into the boat. The intent was obvious...OBAMA wanted him D E A D.

And all this because Obama told Putin to MYOB when he sent info about the killers.

We ignored the panty bomber's father. We ignored the reports on Hasan....

Bottom line....all Muslims...All deliberately ignored by Obama...."I will side with....."

How many were there before Obama came into office?

One high power shot thru the helmet of the first guy would kill the other behind him. Good thing we were peaceful or the Fed would have been slaughter in great numbers.
Or maybe that's what Obama wanted all along. After all, what does a King care if a few pawns get bumped off as long as it goes to the greater good.

This is shocking - but as we saw at the Bundy ranch, being armed and having the intelligence and knowledge into their proper roll and how to use them are two entirely different things. The Army has been using arms for century’s and understands this. Just giving a rife to a civilian is not the same has having an Army.

There’s only one question.... If someone lets them out of the bottle, who’s going to put them back in? Very easy to get into a war, very difficult to get out!

The military strategy rule you are referring to assumes comparable numbers of opposition- wherein superior intelligence, training, etc. are usually decisive. Korean War showed what happens when that assumption is proven to be false. One thousand to one ratios as are present here are likely to negate normal military advantages - if the will to fight is strong.

I have a question that readers of this post may know the answer to saving me considerable time researching.

I know the oath the President takes to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.
I know the oath the Congress takes to support and defend the Constitution.
I know the oath military officers take to support and defend the Constitution.
I know the oath the enlisted military take to support and defend the Constitution and to obey orders that are in accord with the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

The subtle distinction between officer oath and enlisted oath is that
officers are bound to disobey any order that violates our Constitution,
while enlisted personnel are bound to obey only lawful orders.

What oath do Armed Federal Agents take?

There’s another ARmy in the the US. And it's the largest ARmy in the world - it's numbers are in the millions...

This should give the Feds second thoughts because whatever location they choose and whatever numbers they commit, they will always be surrounded.....................

A Show of Contempt, at Home and Abroad

http://www.steynonline.com

" The proliferation of paramilitary federal SWAT teams inevitably brings abuses that have nothing to do with either drugs or terrorism. Many of the raids they conduct are against harmless, often innocent, Americans who typically are accused of non-violent civil or administrative violations.

Take the case of Kenneth Wright of Stockton, Calif., who was "visited" by a SWAT team from the U.S. Department of Education in June 2011. Agents battered down the door of his home at 6 a.m., dragged him outside in his boxer shorts, and handcuffed him as they put his three children (ages 3, 7, and 11) in a police car for two hours while they searched his home. The raid was allegedly intended to uncover information on Wright's estranged wife, Michelle, who hadn't been living with him and was suspected of college financial-aid fraud."

"In the Second World War, when the Japanese took Singapore and inflicted what Churchill called the most ignominious defeat in British military history, it was famously said of the colony's ill-prepared defenses that the guns were pointing the wrong way.

In America today, the guns seem to be pointing the wrong way."

So the picture is about the government’s armed response to what? Somebody not paying taxes?
Remember Elian Gonzalez? That was under a democrat president too.
This is no longer the United States that I once knew.

Those agents could cause havoc in the name of the law. But with Obama as Commander in Chief. BWA-HA-HA-HA!

Barack Hussein Obama, the proven liar, could not lead a one car clown funeral. At best, he is setting up a dictatorship for someone else.
