“Therefore: if anything would happen as sketched in the essay, the counter-blast would be so immense, so strong, and yes, so violent (rightfully so), that the plot would be overturned within 24 h.”
That premise goes out the window if Barry packs the USSC like FDR.
If Barry has these intentions, then first the Court, after that the “incident”, recruit Mexican and Black gangs to form the heart of his Defense Corp, disband US Mil, then announce suspension.
Then the Civil War begins...
As I have posted before, the military takes an oath to the Constitution not the President. So unless there is a mass arrest of all military leaders Zero could expect no support from the military.
If I were Zero I would keep an eye on traffic heading North on I-95 out of North Carolina. It only takes 5 or 6 hours to reach Washington from that state.
Big difference between Clinton and Obama, believe it or not. The Obama Administration, and his associations, has people who have openly expressd views promoting tyrannical actions. Bill Clinton was a politician. Zero is a wannabe despot.
No. They don’t want to risk their pensions and retirement. The same will hold true for the local cops when they are given the order to arrest us on bogus charges. Refues. Fired no pension or retirement. There will only be government controlled jobs by then and they have families to feed. Not a hard decision.
The Jewish police in the Warsaw Ghetto faced the same type choice when ordered by the Germans to round up people to be transported. We need x number of people. Go get them or we will take your family members.
Read your history to learn what choice they made.
This sounds like the new “Red Dawn” movie. Then again, the fact that they didn’t need to build sets for a dilapidated war zone, only set it in Detroit, means we’re closer to that reality than is comfortable.
Well no, it's not being taken seriously. Not by anyone with half a brain.
It’s Y2K all over again
We need to have a Bingo sheet for threads like this containing :
Martial Law
Reichstag Fire
Coup
Red Dawn
UN vehicles
Chinese troops
Concentration camp
Those guys cannot organize a BBQ much less declare Marshall Law. Maobama can raise a civilian army of 250000+ but has no idea the command structure that has to be in place to use it with any degree of effectiveness. Week One 3/4 of the civilian jokers would be dead or AWOL.
I'm a believer in "prepare for the worst, hope for the best" positioning. I profoundly hope we manage to turn these thugs out of their upholstered seats in the Oval Office and the Capitol, but after contemplating the nature of the persons we're discussing, their ardency for power and their belief that it's theirs by right regardless of the popular will, I've just ordered another 2,000 rounds for my AR-15.
Sadly, we can't count on foreign assistance if our domestic balloon goes up. I wish it were otherwise, but...!

I have a hard time envisioning the US Military going on patrol/alert/ in America to do the bidding of this POS.
It is the people controlling Obama that are the threat.
In the very beginning, that's what I thought.
But Obama's ineptitude is proving that he doesn't have any REAL "handlers" and "puppeteers".
It would be better for Obama if he did...perhaps they collectively could do a better job.
The author of this article addressed that issue as follows (and I tend to think this is an accurate statement)...
(paragraphs and emphasis added)Commandant Zero is being revealed as the most inept president on record. This is in no way hyperbole; it is a sober evaluation of the record as it exists.
Fillmore, Buchanan, and even Carter are simply not in the running here.
As a schlemiel, Obama stands in a class by himself, a man who not only can’t solve problems, but can’t recognize them when they appear. And this limited individual is somehow going to coordinate and carry out an operation as complex, difficult, and risky as a national coup? That’s one of those questions that answers itself.
(And let’s not argue that his “handlers” would take care of it. His handlers were the ones who came up with the Sestak approach. If they were capable of anything impressive, we’d know about it by now.)
If Obama is really a sock puppet, the real power behind the scene is stupid enough to have their front man playing golf, laughing, and vacationing while the country's problems boil.
How stupid must they be to write lines for him to read like (to paraphrase)..."I'll meet with the experts to find out whose 'ass to kick'." And how parochial/provincial must they be to think that what worked in Chicago will work great on the national level.
Frankly, I think a committee of three postal workers could do a better job of managing this country than Obama and "his handlers" (if any).

I think you would also have to have the complete loyalty of the military. Despite his efforts to get his political commissars in place, I think the military would be more likely to go arrest him than follow his illegal orders.
There indeed might be a military coup....but Obama would be the “removee”
LOL!
I'm not buying into the whole “martial law” conspiracy / disaster in the first place, but:
The military would likely not even be involved.
Consider the loutish Klintoon’s reign. Elian Gonzales, Waco, Ruby Ridge. With the exception of Waco, none involved the military, all were pulled off with out of control federal jackbooted thugs. The ATF ran amok during those eight years.
Civilian law enforcement already practices ignoring Constitutional principles on a daily basis. Ninety percent of the laws they are enforcing go against the principles of freedom our nation was founded on. Just because the “Supremes” wave their hands and give something the green light or more often refuse to get involved has allowed our freedoms to slide down the sink hole. These rights are God Given, not subject to the whims of politicians. Obama is busy stacking the court with unqualified ideologues to cover the communist power plays.
If you want to know what will happen, look to the past.
What happened during Katrina, Rodney King riots, and all the sundry “race” riots of the 60’s? Very few, if any of the criminals were brought to justice, in spite of overwhelming video evidence. These louts are now “Obama Czars”.
It's not quite that dreadful. There will be no coups---military or otherwise. Some nuts from either side occasionally posture nonsense like that. Americans are very wary of anyone who appears to crave power. But most of the hysteria starts on the left because while the right views the left as a collection of fools, leftists well and truly believe conservatives are evil, nasty trolls who want to dominate everybody.
Look what's happening to LTC Lakin.
Waco, Ruby Ridge, and Elian Gonzales should give us some idea of what law enforcement and the military will do. Geeze! After Elian, the swat team and INS had a celebration picnic.
HUGE difference.
